Waanzinnig goede speakers van bowers & wilkins. Het gaat om de nieuwere s2 versie (te zien aan de tweeters ), altijd zuinig mee omgegaan, paar kleine gebruikssporen, rookvrij en huisdier vrij huis
At €925, this sits in the fair-to-good zone for a pair of CM9 S2s; new they were a roughly €2,700-€3,000 class floorstander, so the ask is well below original retail but not quite low enough to call a steal without more condition detail. Against the used market, it looks broadly in line with the kind of money these still command when they’re clean and working properly.
That’s because the CM9 S2 is a genuinely well-regarded speaker: big-scale presentation, strong bass for the size, and the smooth, refined B&W top end that suits both stereo and movie use. If the finish is tidy, the grilles and plinths are present, and there’s no sagging woofer surround or tweeter damage, this is a sensible buy for someone wanting a serious full-range tower without jumping into much pricier 800-series territory.
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.
