Bowers & Wilkins 805 Speakers – Excellent Sound, Cosmetic Flaws
Up for sale is a pair of B&W 805 speakers known for their outstanding clarity, imaging, and high-end performance. These are audiophile-grade bookshelf speakers that deliver the signature B&W sound — detailed highs, rich mids, and tight bass — all in a compact, elegant form.
Condition:
Both speakers are fully functional and sound fantastic. However, there are cosmetic issues with the tweeters:
One tweeter has broken off from its base (still intact and can be repaired or mounted).
The other had the same issue but has been carefully reattached with glue.
The covers are in good condition.
These cosmetic flaws have no effect on the sound quality or functionality — they still perform beautifully and are ready to enjoy as-is or restore cosmetically.
Perfect for someone who values performance over appearance or is comfortable doing a bit of cosmetic repair. Priced accordingly.
Feel free to message with any questions or to arrange a demo.
It's time to raise your expectations! The Bowers & Wilkins Matrix 805 is one of the best bookshelf speakers you're likely to ever listen to. It's a 2-way speaker design with a unique twist: the tweeter is placed on top, which ensures the sound remains focused and time-sensitive so the stereo-image is presented with unparalleled three-dimensional accuracy. It also features a Kevlar loudspeaker cone to reduce unwanted standing waves. These two together result in a home hi-fi monitor that sounds as fantastic as it looks. It's the smallest speaker in the Matrix 800 Series, but it has all the technology, power, and performance of the bigger speakers.
