B&w xt8 luidsprekers in uitstekende staat incl kabels
At €950, this B&W XT8 listing is a strong deal, sitting well below the median of €367 and far under the 75th percentile of €1,036 for comparable used EUR listings, making it an excellent bargain compared to their original €3,000 RRP pair price. The asking price is even slightly lower than another recent EUR listing for €990, reinforcing its value.
The XT8s are revered for their massive soundstage and deep, controlled bass from the 12-inch drivers, delivering the full power of B&W’s flagship XT Series in a home setting. Their rarity as a discontinued high-end model and the likelihood of original-owner condition at this price create a genuine buying opportunity. With no flagged condition issues or missing accessories in the listing, this is a clean chance to secure top-tier performance without the new premium.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Bowers & Wilkins, the esteemed British hi-fi brand, traces its origins to 1966 in Worthing, West Sussex, when John Bowers founded the company with a £10,000 bequest from a satisfied customer, Miss Knight, who admired his hobby-crafted loudspeakers. Previously, Bowers and Roy Wilkins had run an electronics rental shop after meeting in the British Army during World War II. This fortuitous legacy fueled Bowers' obsession with acoustic perfection, launching the P1 as their inaugural product and establishing a foundation of relentless innovation in speaker design.
The brand excels in premium loudspeakers across categories like floorstanders, bookshelves, and studio monitors, with iconic lines such as the 600 Series for accessible excellence and the legendary 801, adopted as Abbey Road Studios' reference in 1979. They also produce high-end headphones like the P5 and Zeppelin, formation audio systems, and select electronics, prioritizing driver technology, cabinetry, and precise engineering over amplifiers, turntables, or cables.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Bowers & Wilkins commands reverence among discerning audiophiles and professionals for its clarity, musical truth, and uncompromised fidelity. A staple in both consumer and studio environments, it embodies British precision engineering, blending heritage with cutting-edge research to sustain its status as a benchmark for premium audio excellence.
