DM1600

Stand-mount/Bookshelf loudspeaker system

Product Summary

●

The DM 1600’s are further triumphs for B&W’s research and development centre – generally
regarded as one of the most advanced development centres in Europe.

●

The new metal – domed high frequency unit uses the same diaphragm as the professional model
Matrix 801. The Bass/midrange driver are of a totally new design, and the specially formulated
plastic compound used for the cone makes several distinct contributions to performance

●

There is an optional, purpose-designed stand.

Technical highlights

●

B&W’s ability to reduce the number of crossover network components to an absolute minimum
means that the signal has a more direct path to the drivers – an advantage which produces a
cleaner, more linear performance. B&W’s patented APOC Circuit protects both systems
against excessive overload.

●

The enclosures have matched the design simplicity with the beauty of real wood veneers.
Their high density, bevel wedged front baffles are more than just visually pleasing – the bevel
actually helps top reproduce diffraction and so improve dispersion.
