Bowers en wilkins dm5 2-weg luidsprekersysteem (1975) met nog mooie kasten maar helaas zonder tweeters. De woofers werken uiteraard. Met scheidings filters. Type: 2-weg luidsprekersysteem met 2 driver
Notable mainly because it’s a cheap entry into a respected vintage B&W bookshelf speaker line, and the price is well below the market median. At €70, it sits comfortably under the €192 25th percentile and looks like a strong bargain versus the €344 median, assuming the cabinets and drivers are otherwise intact.
The upside is the classic DM-series appeal: straightforward, music-first voicing, solid build, and a good chance of rewarding careful restoration or a parts search if needed. The catch is obvious from the title: missing tweeters is a real issue, so this is best for someone comfortable sourcing replacements or buying for donor/restoration value rather than a plug-and-play listen.
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.
