Bowers & Wilkins 600 Series 2 DM602 S2, DM 602 S2 Specification Sheet

DM 602 S2

Stand-mount/Bookshelf loudspeaker system

Product Summary

●

The DM602 S2 is a 2-way vented-box system with a woven Kevlar® cone bass/mid
driver which virtually eliminates distortions caused by radial waves travelling back and forth
along the cone. The aluminium dome tweeter produces amazing open sound.

●

The high quality cabinets are attractively finished in a choice of Black Ash or Cherry vinyl
In common with all other models the grey baffle, moulded in mica-filled polypropylene,
forms a second layer to the wooden baffle adding stiffness and damping.

●

A review from What Hi-Fi (July 1999) underpinned our belief in the speaker with comments
including, "providing a fantastic level of refinement in a medium sized box and having
enough bass weight and control to satisfy those into rock and dance. Great all-rounders
and an excellent buy”.
