B&W 802 D4

The Bowers & Wilkins 802 D4 is one of the most sophisticated floor-standing loudspeakers in its class. The model combines extremely high resolution with composure, precision and authority in the bass — qualities that make the 802 D4 a reference within the 800 Series.

The Rosenut finish enhances the luxurious character of this version. The warm wood veneer and the carefully finished details give the speakers a high-quality look that fits into serious listening areas and modern living environments.

playback & balance

The 802 D4 is distinguished by an exceptionally balanced tonal balance. The Diamond tweeter delivers a fine and open high without sharpness, while the Continuum midrange provides transparency in voices and acoustic instruments. The Aerofoil woofers ensure controlled, deep and layered . . . . . even at higher volumes the system remains intact.

The stereo image is wide, stable and three-dimensional. Instruments are clearly defined within a convincing space, with a clear sense of scale and positioning.

Compatibility & set-up

The 802 D4 performs optimally with high-quality reinforcement and benefits from electronics with sufficient power and control. In combination with reference preamps and high-quality digital sources, the model shows how far the performance of modern speaker technology extends.

Application

The 802 D4 is suitable for audiophile stereo sets and can function as a front speaker in high-end home cinema configurations. The speaker retains its neutral character and dynamic possibilities in various listening areas.

This set is in perfect condition and complete with original packaging and accessories. 1.5 years old.
