Bowers & Wilkins Goes Maserati

  • PDF

What do Bowers & Wilkins and Maserati have in common? Not much, other than the 805 Maserati Edition-- a special version of the well regarded 805 Diamond loudspeaker with an Italian sportscar twist.

805 Maserati editionSupposedly "combining the unbeatable audio performance of B&W and the understated opulence of Maserati," the 805 Maserati Edition features an "exquisite" bird's eye maple veneer, black Maserati leather and the Maserati Trident on the speaker stand.

Otherwise the speaker identical to the 805 Diamond, with a free-mounted 25mm diamond dome tweeter and 165mm Kevlar cone bass/midrange powering a frequency range of -6dB (at 45Hz and 33kHz) and a frequency response of 49Hz-28kHz ±3dB.

The 805 Maserati Edition hits the market by Q3 2013, together with a Maserati-branded version of the B&W P5 headphones.
