Angeboten wird „801 D4“ von B&W als Ausstellungsstück aus der Kategorie „Standlautsprecher“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 8182716112 endet am 03.10.2026 um 10:08 Uhr.
This is a buyer’s market at the moment: €33,000 sits just above the €32,194 median and inside the €27,317–€36,646 typical asking band, so it reads as fair rather than cheap. It is not a bargain, but it is also not ambitious for the model; the price is close enough to market that the real question is condition and completeness, not whether the ask is wildly off.
The 801 D4 is well regarded for its scale, control, and very low-distortion presentation, with the kind of deep bass grip and open midrange that make it a reference-level floorstander when properly set up. A clean, good-condition pair at this level is worth a look if the finish, drivers, and stands/spikes are all in order, and if the seller can confirm original packaging or accessories.
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.
