Loudspeaker system

Solid Solutions C100

●

The solid solutions C100 is a centre channel specifically designed to focus dialogue the
viewing screen. It should ideally be positioned above or below the television and its
magnetic shielding ensures a television picture free from interference.

PB100

●

The solid solutions PB100 compact active subwoofer has an integral 70-watt MOSFET
amplifier, dramatically boosting the bass response of your hi-fi or Home Theatre system. It
features B&W’s unequalled down-firing Flow Port System, delivering low frequencies fat and
with a punch that is second to none.

S100

●

The solid S100 is the perfect match for a modern lifestyle and can be used in any room of
the house. Its multipurpose wall bracket allows it t be mounted either way up in the corner or
flat on walls.

Centrale

●

The Solid Centrale is the new high-end benchmark amongst compact multi-purpose monitors.
Ideal as front centre, rear or front channel monitor in Surround Sound systems whilst offering
breathtaking definition and clarity as a shelf seized high-end hi-fi monitor. The Solid Central is
at home in-doors or out, upright or on its side, wall mounted or stand-based, at most angles
on substantial surfaces. The Central enables top quality hi-fi performance to travel further than
ever before.

●

Both drivers are magnetically shielded to facilitate proximity to videos, TV sets and computer
screens without causing any picture distortion.

Team

●

Team has been specifically designed to adapt to any environment, any application. On its
own it can be used as a highly efficient, sensitive bookshelf speaker, professional equipment
monitor or used with the aid of the unique Solid port bug-plug in outdoors applications.

●

With its magnetically shielded design it is ideal for use as a TV surround loudspeaker. Its
integral wall mounting brackets means it can be suspended from walls or ceiling in any room
in the house.

●

Whilst the Team delivers as good, if not better bass extension than other loudspeakers twice
its size, it’s when the Team links up with the Teambass Subwoofer that it really shows its
power. With a special front vent design to accentuate the low frequencies, teams peak
power handling in its own right is impressive at around 75 watts, but with the Teambass this
is boosted to in excess of 100 watts.

Bass station

●

To take solid performance beyond the merely superlative, a dedicated Bass Station has been
developed to match the remarkable efficiency of the Solid loudspeakers. Utilising eight 4in
drive units to achieve almost 92dB sensitivity, the bass reflex port is positioned centrally on
the front of the cabinet. This provides for easy positioning against a wall or in the corner if
maximum bass output is required.

●

Frequency response has been shaped to deliver high output performance in 50-100Hz range
with commanding dynamic clarity – or a punch to the stomach.

●

The bass station has a designated 2nd order high pass filter crossover developed by some of
the best acoustic engineers in the world.

Solid monitor

●

The Solid Monitor is a compact precision instrument of sound. Its depth, power and purity are
a delight to the ear, whilst its look caresses the eye. There are four treats in store. Like bass
reflex loading: over 90dB sensitivity: power handling of up to 150 watts – not to mention
response levels maintained down to a remarkable 70Hz. That’s as low as many of its
competitors go with the aid of a subwoofer.

●

The outer is as ingenious as the inner. A multi-radiused, polypropylene two-part cabinet has
been devised to achieve a smoother sound through inherent damping. All in the cause of
majestic output, practically free from distortion up to the highest level.

●

The Solid monitor can be mounted at any angle, on walls or ceilings. When fixed to a wall,
bass extension reaches down to 50Hz, even without the help of a subwoofer. Solids can join
forces too. The Solid Array offers the option of multiple ceiling installations using just one
cable.

Ovale

●

The Solid Ovale’s sensitivity and sheer sound realism will force you to reconsider the
performance potential of small domestic loudspeakers. It means getting used to amazingly
deep reaching bass and power handling that peaks at 100 watts. It means you can crank
up the volume because the distortion you would normally expect just isn’t there.

●

The live atmosphere hits you through the remarkable scope of the Oval stereo image. The live
atmosphere hits you through the remarkable scope of the Ovale stereo image. Equipped with
its own overload protection, the Solid Ovale brings you the bass; the breadth of frequency,
the power and dynamic range of hi-fi performance that you thought was out of reach.

●

Versatility is the key to the Oval Satellites. The compact injection moulded ABS cabinet is
positioned on a straight-stalk antenna that enables you to angle the speaker in any direction.
3670 degrees of movement to enable you arrive at the optimum listening position for a
particular room.
