1. B+W B&W AM-1 Outdoor Wall Speaker white
Designed to provide great sound wherever you need it, the weather-proof AM-1 is the most durable loudspeaker Bowers & Wilkins has ever made.
The AM-1 Architectural Monitor offers a unique combination of high-quality sound and supreme flexibility. Articulate, exciting, and powerful, the AM-1 avoids the compromises commonly associated with versatile, all-weather monitors, delivering all the performance expected of a Bowers & Wilkins loudspeaker.
A two-way design, the AM-1 features an inverted drive unit configuration, with a 25mm aluminium-dome tweeter mounted below a 5-inch glass-fibre bass/midrange driver. This ensures optimal dispersion of sound when the speaker is mounted high on the wall. The AM-1’s low-frequency output is bolstered by the use of a rear-mounted auxiliary bass radiator (ABR). Used instead of a conventional bass reflex port, the ABR provides exceptional bass response for a cabinet of its size while maintaining a continual seal against the elements. This combination of advanced drive units, unique configuration, and classically simple crossover components creates a loudspeaker as musical as it is flexible.
The AM-1 has been carefully designed to be easy to install and very flexible. It can be positioned in either landscape or portrait mode and combines a rust-proof aluminium grille with a rigid cabinet composed of glass-filled plastics, ensuring class-leading resistance to extremes of dust, moisture, and UV exposure. While it has obvious benefits outdoors, its discreet styling and impressive performance will also find favor for use indoors.
