Description

Bowers & Wilkins 805 D5 Bookshelf Speaker

The Bowers & Wilkins 805 D5 is a reference-grade two-way bookshelf speaker and the most compact model in the prestigious 800 Series Diamond D5. Combining advanced acoustic engineering with exceptional craftsmanship, it delivers remarkable clarity, precise imaging and an expansive soundstage from a relatively compact enclosure.

Designed for high-performance stereo systems, the 805 D5 brings the technologies of Bowers & Wilkins’ flagship loudspeaker range into a format ideally suited to smaller listening rooms. Its combination of a Diamond Dome tweeter, Continuum Cone bass/midrange driver and carefully engineered cabinet provides outstanding detail, transparency and musical expression.

Diamond Dome Tweeter

The 25mm Diamond Dome tweeter is housed in the distinctive Solid Body Tweeter-on-Top assembly. Its exceptionally rigid diamond diaphragm delivers outstanding high-frequency precision and clarity, while the mechanically isolated aluminium housing helps minimise unwanted vibrations and resonance.

The result is exceptional resolution, openness and a natural sense of space, allowing subtle details in recordings to emerge with remarkable accuracy.

Continuum Cone Bass/Midrange Driver

A dedicated 165mm Continuum Cone bass/midrange driver reproduces vocals and instruments with impressive transparency and tonal accuracy. The cone’s advanced construction helps reduce unwanted resonances, while the Anti-Resonance Plug contributes to controlled and detailed sound reproduction.

Working together with the Diamond Dome tweeter, the Continuum driver creates a coherent and precisely focused stereo image.

Advanced Cabinet Engineering

The 805 D5 features Bowers & Wilkins’ distinctive Reverse-Wrap cabinet, designed to minimise unwanted cabinet reflections and improve acoustic performance.

An enhanced Matrix bracing system increases cabinet rigidity and reduces unwanted resonance, helping the loudspeaker maintain exceptional clarity and precision even during demanding musical passages.

The integrated Flowport bass-reflex system contributes to controlled low-frequency reproduction and impressive bass extension for a speaker of this size.

Reference Sound in a Compact Format

Despite its compact dimensions, the 805 D5 delivers the refinement, dynamic expression and spacious presentation expected from the 800 Series Diamond D5. It is an excellent choice for discerning listeners seeking reference-level performance without the physical presence of large floorstanding loudspeakers.

The cabinet is available in four luxurious finishes: Stealth Black, Warm White, Light Walnut and Dark Walnut, complemented by matching Leather by Connolly detailing.

Dedicated FS-805 D5 Speaker Stands

For optimal positioning and stability, the 805 D5 can be paired with the dedicated Bowers & Wilkins FS-805 D5 speaker stands, designed specifically for this model and available separately.

Price is for one speaker. Sold in matching pairs (minimum order quantity: 2 speakers). Speaker stands are not included.
