Design an audio powerhouse with this two-way Bowers & Wilkins in-wall loudspeaker. It produces tight, crystal-clear treble thanks to its 1-inch Diamond dome tweeter with Nautilus tubing and a Flowport airflow system. The 7-inch bass/midrange driver of this Bowers & Wilkins in-wall loudspeaker has an anti-resonance plug to reproduce audio signals consistently. Use of BB8.5W Back Box is mandatory. Fully Matrix braced, for extra rigidity and improved performance the back boxes feature bi-wireable cables that connect to the baffle electronically with a multi-pin connector. The Bowers & Wilkins CI800 Series Diamond range of custom installation speakers is engineered for discerning customers who demand great hi-fi and home cinema sound from loudspeakers that occupy minimal space. This exceptional range of in-wall and in-ceiling loudspeakers features all the key transducer technologies developed for the globally renowned 800 Series Diamond including Diamond dome tweeters, Continuum midrange drivers and Aerofoil bass cones. The result is outstanding levels of performance that once again raise the bar for custom installation loudspeakers.

  • 1" Diamond tweeter: Prized in highly specialised industrial applications, the unique properties of diamond make for a near-perfect tweeter material. Our diamond domes are grown like crystals in super-heated furnaces under laboratory conditions before being cut to produce our tweeter domes.
  • Continuum Cone Midbass: Continnum is a woven composite that blends control with flexibility. The result is breathtaking clarity. Hear voices, guitars and bass instruments with precision and transparency.
  • Matrix Back Box: Traditional In-wall and In-ceiling speakers use your wall construction as part of the speaker cabinet. This introduces unwanted resonance and rattles to the sound of the speaker. The Matrix Back Box is a rock solid enclosure mounting behind the wall surface that increases performance by dramatically reducing wall noise. See sku 5708762 for more information.
