Description from the seller
B&W 201i
Stand-mount/Bookshelf loudspeaker system
Product Summary
The 200 series was deemed as the rarity in the mass consumer hi-fi market – a reasonably priced loudspeaker that provided high sensitivity, extended linear frequency response and pinpoint stereo imaging.
The 201i is a 2-way vented box loudspeaker system. The speaker comprises of a 1in high frequency unit with polyester dome and one 6-in low/mid frequency composite fibre cone.
The B&W wall bracket accessory permits easy, multi-directional positioning on walls.
To deliver this product properly, it is packed in very strong boxes, thereby encased in bubble wrap. In addition to the strong packaging, the box is labeled as fragile, using orange "fragile" tape. In case of further packing requirements please message after purchase.
Technical highlights
The Design incorporates a cabinet profile and wedge shaped grilles on acoustically transparent frames.
The magnetic fluid-cooled voice coils are a B&W hallmark, wound on glass reinforced Kapton formers, enabling the drivers to take the heat when reproducing modern digital recordings.
In common with all B&W tweeters, the lightweight units incorporate low viscosity magnetic fluids to offer excellent power handling and linearity.
