Te koop aangeboden: een paar prachtige b&w bowers & wilkins 684 vloerstaande luidsprekers. Ze zijn in goede staat. De 684-serie staat bekend om zijn heldere en dynamische geluidsweergave. Idea
€450 is above the 75th percentile versus your recent EUR comps, so this reads as ambitious rather than fair; for this market, you’d want to see a notably cleaner package or some extras to justify it. The gap is material against the €352 median and €401 upper quartile, so there’s not much room to call it a casual buy.
That said, the 684 is a well-liked B&W floorstander: easy to place, engaging through the mids, and capable of a classy, balanced presentation when properly set up. If the drivers are original and healthy, cabinets are clean, and there’s a sensible reason for the ask, it can still be a worthwhile listen—but at this level I’d expect proof of careful ownership, good cosmetic condition, and no hidden service needs.
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.
