Angeboten wird „802 D4 - Top Zustand Bowers & Wilkins“ von B&W als Ausstellungsstück aus der Kategorie „Lautsprecher, Kopfhörer“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 1910421652 endet am 08.10.2026 um 06:31 Uhr.
This is a buyer’s market for this model at the moment, and the asking price is fair to slightly strong, not a bargain. At €20,900, it sits above the €19,082 median and well below the €22,442 75th percentile, so it’s priced in the upper-middle of the current comparable set rather than at a discount.
That still makes sense for a well-regarded pair like this: the 802 is valued for scale, effortless dynamics, and a big, room-filling presentation that smaller speakers simply can’t match. If the condition is genuinely good, that premium can be justified; the main upside is getting into a serious flagship-class speaker without paying top-of-market money.
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.
