Bower & Wilkins - 685 Speaker set

B&W 685 speakers

In perfect condition

no scratch or damage

The 685 (S1) is a much-praised monitor bookshelf speaker from Bowers & Wilkins, which partly uses technology that was reserved for the more expensive 800 series. For example, the 25 mm aluminum dome tweeter is placed in a housing originally developed for the groundbreaking Nautilus speakers

For the mid and bass, the so-called yellow Kevlar woofer with a diameter of 165 mm is used.
The woofer delivers a surprisingly full and powerful bass for such a compact size.

There is a bass port at the front.
The speakers have impressive dynamics and a clear sound image.

The 685 has been awarded multiple times by renowned media such as What Hi-Fi?
The Absolute Sound praises the unparalleled build quality and finish in this price range.
