The Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound System is the first of its kind: An audio system with highly developed acoustics technologies, like the Diamond Dome tweeters that had never been seen in a car before. From the outset, the team of sound engineers and designers had as their goal the development of an audio system which would harmonize with the luxurious interior design of BMW and BMW M automobiles. The result is superb: An audio experience that gives the listener the impression they are actually sitting in the studio with the artists.
DIAMOND.
DIAMOND.
Why Diamond? Diamond is by far the toughest material you can work with. In the form of thin domes, it remains rigid for perfect recreations of high frequencies with minimal distortion.
Developed under lab conditions, the diamond dome tweeters are fitted in the top range studio speakers from Bowers & Wilkins – and in BMW 5, 6, 7, 8, X5, X6 ,X7, i5 i7, iX as well as M models M5, M6, M8, X5 M, X6 M and XM. The Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound System is fitted as standard in BMW 7 Series automobiles.
NAUTILUS.
NAUTILUS.
A milestone in the high-performance field: Nautilus speakers from Bowers & Wilkins are international design icons and to this day ground-breaking for the audio industry. Inspired by this innovation, the spiralling diffusion channels soak up the reflected sound from the back of each tweeter, thereby the resonance is kept to a minimum – for a powerful sound experience in your BMW M.
PERFECT TUNING.
The design of the various different BMW M automobiles is highly individual. That’s why we invested hundreds of hours in the integration and positioning of the speakers – for every model that can be equipped with a Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound System, there’s a unique configuration for the best sound experience.
BEST SOUND FOR YOUR BMW M.
Dynamic and powerful or hi-tech in luxury design – what counts is the maximum pleasure offered by superb acoustics. Whichever sound system you choose for your BMW M, the audio experience of the highly developed Harman Kardon and Bowers & Wilkins systems will bring joy to your ears.
