Offered is „B&W 802 D4“ by B&W as second-hand device from the category „Compact Speaker“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 2747314174 ends on 16.10.2026 at 08:01 o'clock.
Condition good helps here, but at €24,000 this is still ambitious versus the local used market: it sits above the 75th percentile of €20,981, while the median is €18,465. In plain terms, you’re paying a premium over the typical comparable listing, so it’s not a bargain.
That said, this is a well-regarded flagship tower with a lot going for it: scale, clean imaging, deep bass authority, and the kind of effortless presentation that makes B&W’s 800-series appealing to serious listeners. A good-condition example can absolutely justify extra money if it has been carefully kept, but at this level I’d want proof of excellent cosmetic condition, properly functioning drivers, and any original packaging or accessories to soften the 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.
