[edit] Description
[edit] Product Summary
- Manufacturer: B&W
- As the top of the line model in B&W’s DM Series, The DM16 represents the integration
of high style and performance.
- Without resorting to professional studio-style configurations, the DM16 incorporates many of
B&W’s major technological innovations; including the use of polymer driver cones and domes.
[edit] Technical highlights
- B&W’s ability to reduce the number of crossover network components to an absolute minimum
means that the signal has a more direct path to the drivers – an advantage which produces a cleaner, more linear performance. B&W’s patented APOC Circuit protects both systems against excessive overload.
- The enclosures have matched the design simplicity with the beauty of real wood veneers.
Their high density, bevel wedged front baffles are more than just visually pleasing – the bevel actually helps top reproduce diffraction and so improve dispersion.
