Panorama 2

Panorama 2 adds a new dimension to home entertainment, bringing truly immersive high-quality sound to your TV from a single, discreet speaker. You won’t believe what a big difference a single box can make.

Panorama 2's drive units are designed to disperse sound to as wide a listening area as possible. This large audio “sweet spot” means the whole family can immerse themselves in pristine sound. Movies and music on Panorama 2 now sound better than you ever thought that they could. All from a single, discreet loudspeaker system.

Panorama 2 features completely new, specially designed tweeters, midrange and low frequency drive units. This leads to a dramatically improved acoustic performance, with better bass and enhanced integration.

Strength and rigidity is key to avoiding audio distortion ­ you only want to hear sound from the drivers, not a rattle from the cabinet. So Panorama 2 is designed with an unbroken, curving outer shell.

We believe speakers should not only sound fantastic, they should also be easy to install and use. That's why using Panorama 2 is as simple as plugging it in. Panorama 2 features the latest HDMI connectivity (three inputs and one output) to allow the quickest, easiest, and highest-quality to the widest range of televisions, Blu-ray players, set-top boxes and games consoles.

Panorama 2's HDMI connectivity allows: on-screen information display; audio-return, taking sound from TV to amplifier; and Consumer Electronics Control, so you can control it with your TV remote.

Panorama 2 features a proximity-sensitive display. Leave it alone and it fades to black. But wave your hand over the display and you can instantly control Panorama 2’s menus directly.

AM-1

The AM-1 Architectural Monitor offers a unique combination of high-quality sound and supreme flexibility. Articulate, exciting and powerful, AM-1 avoids the compromises commonly associated with versatile, all-weather monitors, and delivers all the performance expected of a Bowers & Wilkins loudspeaker.

A two-way design, AM-1 features an inverted drive unit configuration, with a 25mm aluminium-dome tweeter mounted below rather than above a 5inch glass-fibre bass/midrange driver. This ensures optimal dispersion of sound when the speaker is mounted high on the wall. AM-1’s low-frequency output is bolstered by the use of a rear-mounted auxiliary bass radiator (ABR). Used instead of a conventional bass reflex port, the ABR endows AM-1 with exceptional bass response for a cabinet of its size. Unlike a port, it also provides AM-1’s cabinet with a continual seal against the elements. This combination of advanced drive units, unique configuration and classically simple crossover components combines to create a loudspeaker as musical as it is flexible.

AM-1 has been carefully designed to be easy to install and very flexible. Designed to be positioned in either landscape or portrait mode, AM-1 combines a rust-proof aluminium grille with a rigid cabinet composed of glass-filled plastics, ensuring class-leading resistance to extremes of dust, moisture and UV exposure. And while it has very obvious benefits outside, its discreet styling and impressive performance will also find favour for use internally.
