803 D5
Reference floor-standing loudspeaker
The 803 D5 is the most compact 800 Series Diamond model to feature the iconic Turbine Head configuration. Thanks to its smaller proportions, it delivers reference-quality Bowers & Wilkins audio performance across a wider range of living and listening spaces.
As well as our Diamond dome tweeter and Solid Body Tweeter-on-Top, 803 D5 features new innovations, including enhanced Matrix™ with Space Frame Bracing and an Aluminium Top Plate with damping collar, ensuring the most precise and compelling sound possible. Available in Stealth Black, Warm White, Light Walnut, and Dark Walnut, with matching Leather by Connolly trim, the 803 D5 is uncompromising in both performance and design.
Ultimate drive unit technology
Pairing our most advanced and innovative drive unit technology, the 803 D5 delivers our purest sound ever. The Diamond dome tweeter pushes break-up frequency to 70kHz, delivering exceptional clarity, precision and openness, and the Continuum™ cone delivers voices and instruments with lifelike detail.
Optimised for pure performance
Every model in the new 800 Series Diamond range benefits from enhanced technology. An upgraded Matrix™ design reduces resonance and creates a more believable soundstage, while aluminium Space Frame Bracing and an all-new aluminium top section within the cabinet help deliver an even more spacious and immersive sound.
Crafted to be better by design
The 800 Series Diamond looks this way for a reason. Its shape is dictated by the science of sound. Our cabinets are formed from a single continuous curve, locked in place by a solid aluminium spine, so cabinet reflections are reduced. Complemented by the Tweeter-on-Top and Turbine Head, musical performance is always as precise as possible.
