Offered is „804 D4 Satin Walnut“ by B&W as exhibit from the category „Standing Speaker“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 4540815262 ends on 26.12.2026 at 06:25 o'clock.
Against your recent comps, €13,490 is above the 75th percentile of €12,106, so this reads as ambitious rather than fair for a used example. It’s not wildly off, but it is pricing in a premium over the current market median of €9,897, so I’d want something special to justify it.
That said, this is a well-regarded floorstander with a strong reputation for refinement, imaging, and ease of listening, especially if the rest of the chain is capable. If the pair is genuinely clean, fully original, and comes with verified condition history or recent servicing, it can still make sense for a buyer who wants to keep these long term; just don’t expect much negotiation room at this level.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Bowers & Wilkins traces its origins to 1966 in Worthing, West Sussex, England, when John Bowers, a passionate audio enthusiast and former electronics shop owner, founded the company with the help of a £10,000 bequest from a satisfied customer, Miss Knight. Bowers, who had honed his speaker-building skills as a hobby while running a radio and TV rental shop with partner Roy Wilkins, launched the venture from the back of that very shop. This modest beginning fueled a relentless pursuit of audio perfection, establishing Bowers & Wilkins as a British icon in high-fidelity sound reproduction.
The brand excels in premium loudspeakers, from flagship studio monitors like the legendary 801 series—adopted by Abbey Road Studios in 1979—to accessible Domestic Monitor lines such as the enduring 600 Series. Its portfolio has expanded to encompass high-end headphones, including the iconic P5 and Zeppelin designs, alongside wireless speakers and formation systems, all emphasizing advanced driver technology, precision cabinetry, and Continuum cones for unparalleled clarity.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Bowers & Wilkins commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its engineering excellence, musical accuracy, and heritage of innovation. Far from mid-tier or niche, it rivals the elite, blending cutting-edge research from facilities like Steyning with a reputation for reference-grade performance that defines luxury hi-fi.
