Bowers & Wilkins reviews & products

B&W's floorstanders are packed with technology and have their fair share of talents...

The B&W 707 S2s are compact speakers that pack a mighty punch...

The B&W 805 D3s are hugely capable standmounters with class-leading resolution and clarity...

B&W’s most affordable on-ears can’t deliver a knockout blow to its rivals

A worthy pair of headphones to commemorate B&W’s 50th birthday

B&W's P7 over-ear headphones go wireless, with spectacular results...

Reasonably priced service, but comes with a limited catalogue

Best wireless headphones £200-£300, Awards 2016. Bowers & Wilkins enters the Bluetooth headphone market. Do the B&W P5 Wireless cans have what it takes to compete?

The latest B&W floorstander aims to keep up the good work of the 600 S2 series

Looks good, sounds great – a portable speaker that’s worth paying the premium for

With gorgeous looks and a stunningly impressive sound, the updated B&W P5s are the new headphones to beat

Talented and entertaining, but not quite the captivating experience we expected

The CM6 S2s produce a regimented, tightly-controlled sound but lack the freedom of expression of the class-leaders

Best portable on-ears £300+, Awards 2013. Great headphones – the P7s still set the standard at this price

Best floorstander £600-£1200, Awards 2014. A very strong and versatile performance; another winner for B&W

They may have lost a star, but the 685 S2s remain highly respected standmounters

Much improved on the original and delivering a quality that justifies the price

There are more talented rivals on the scene, but the veterans are enduring greats

Good, but it needs to offer more scale and non-Apple streaming to compete fully

A masterclass in wireless speaker design

If you want AirPlay and want awesome sound, the A7 demands your attention

Best style package £1000+, Awards 2015. Small package, hugely impressive sound

A fine showcase for B&W's range of technology

Stylish and sonically talented, but newer rivals have the edge

The successor to the multi-award winning PV1, B&W's PV1D proves to be equally as capable, and head and shoulders above the rest

Best style package £1800+, Awards 2014. This Bowers & Wilkins Home Theatre package is an impressive evolution - it ticks all our performance bo

Premium feel, unrivalled power and weight, but overcooked bass

These pint-size standmounters are possibly the most engaging and enjoyable speakers we've seen from B&W for years

Best traditional package £3500+, Awards 2013. A satisfyingly high-end listening experience at a fairly attainable price.

The Bowers & Wilkins CM8s midrange performance is spectacular but at a price...

Fantastic sound and stunning streaming functions – with the Air, B&W has radically improved its iconic iPod dock

These B&W standmounters are indeed things of beauty, but we feel that for all their pros, they're much easier to admire than really love

Best Premium desktop speakers, Awards 2011, but more exciting options are now available

Beautiful to look at, and, in the main, listen to as well, these B&W P5s are a sound investment for your iPod or MP3 player

Best iPod Dock £150–£300, Awards 2010. You won't find a more attractive and musically talented iPod Dock anywhere amongst the competition

Speaker package Product of the Year, Awards 2010. Top-notch, compact package that produces effortlessly exciting results

This B&W ASW608 dinky subwoofer turns in a fast, lively and punchy delivery

B&W's new ASW610XP subwoofer may be compact, but it delivers a mighty punch

The Panorama is a bit of a let-down. For all its unlikely low-frequency ability, it doesn't quite add up

B&W's CM5s look like the Award-winning 685s in a posh frock, but can they cut the mustard?

Expensive, of course, but you get the best home cinema system we’ve ever tested

These B&Ws are impressive to look at and, especially at low volumes, impressive to listen to – but we’d like a bit more excitement for our money

Best subwoofer up to £700, Awards 2011. The B&W ASW610 sounds bigger than it looks and more expensive than its price-tag

If you've some aggressive amplification the needs soothing these smooth, elegant speakers won't let you down

Best traditional package £1000-£1500, Awards 2010. A smooth effortless sound, that still packs in detail and excitement, while remaining nonchalantly

Big in size and sound, the 684s will entertain whatever your musical taste

The whole system integrates brilliantly

Good, attractive, detailed speakers, but they lack the five-star sparkle of their bigger brothers

This powerful and curvy Zeppelin thrives on its simplicity, but it's finally met its match

Exceptional in certain areas, but not as rounded as the very best under £3000

You simply won't get a bigger sound unless you're prepared to put up with much larger (and probably uglier) speakers

Style speakers without compromise, competing with the very best at this price level

We adore these speakers and you will too - the B&Ws generate an extraordinarily coherent soundfield

Best style speaker package £1500-£2000, Awards 2010. A no-brainer: the only really tough choice you’ll have to make is deciding which finish to pick

Whether you listen to Prokofiev, the Prodigy or Prince, the 805Ss will serve you spectacularly well

Best subwoofer £500+, Awards 2010. B&W's amazing-looking and technically-advanced aluminium subwoofer delivers sensational, deep bass with music and m
