Hide the hardware and reveal the true quality of the music. From two-channel hi-fi to multi-room audio and home theatre B&W Custom Installation speakers are capable of delivering sound that is, quite simply, out of sight. Each model in the Series is designed to be installed neatly into wall or ceiling, fitting virtually flush to the surface. The only visible evidence of each speaker is its slimline grille and frame, which can be painted to blend perfectly with your interior style, or even covered with co-ordinating fabric.
Great Sound From Any Angle: In most installation set-ups, listeners will rarely stand or sit directly underneath the speakers. This is why most Bowers & Wilkins speakers including the CCM684’s feature both a variable angle-tweeter and an EQ switch; the combination of which allows you to enjoy perfect sound no matter where your favourite seat is in the room. The switch is conveniently located on the front of the baffle and has three positions 0°-15°-30°. The CCM684’s are compatible with 8 Ohms and for their price have an amazing frequency response of between 35Hz and 35kHz.
Advanced Technology: Trickle down technology from the high-end home audio series has now found it’s way into the entire CM6 Series. The advanced Nautilus inspired aluminium tweeter domes are exceptionally rigid, deliver extremely uniform and instantaneous power response ensuring nice clear highs. The advanced high-power blue Kevlar brand bass/mid cones have larger than average, computer-optimised magnets and high-power motor structures that promote natural and detailed sonic reproduction with outstanding extended bass response. The crossover networks are very sophisticated by any standards.
