Angeboten wird „Audiophile speakers KS Audio“ von B&W als Neugerät aus der Kategorie „Aktivlautsprecher“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 4470396627 endet am 08.06.2026 um 21:25 Uhr.
At €19,000, this is far above the typical used market for comparable B&W speakers: it sits massively over the €1,963 75th percentile and nowhere near the €492 median, so I’d call it extremely ambitious rather than just premium. Unless there’s something very special here, the asking price is out of step with recent EUR comps.
What could justify a serious look is that Bowers & Wilkins speakers are often well-liked for their resolving, open presentation and refined build, and a clean, well-kept pair can hold appeal with the right buyer. But at this level, you’d want concrete proof of why it’s priced like a collector piece: exact model, original packaging, documented provenance, and a fully verified cosmetic and driver condition.
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.
