New Panorama Soundbar from Bowers & Wilkins - Widescreen For Your Ears
Bowers & Wilkins transformed your iPod with the Zeppelin. Now it’s your television’s turn. Bring the excitement of cinema-like sound to your living room with the new Panorama soundbar from the number one loudspeaker manufacturer Bowers & Wilkins.
Easy to install and simple to connect to a whole range of home entertainment devices, Panorama will transform your flatscreen TV into a powerful home theatre system– enhancing its sound quality beyond what you imagined possible. The streamlined and stylish Panorama is a true one-box solution – no subwoofer required!
The vast majority of sound from even the most effect-heavy movie soundtrack is delivered through the centre speaker in a surround sound system, and B&W has worked hard to get this aspect of the Panorama spot on. Of the nine drive units housed within the Panorama’s aluminium casework, five are utilised in the active centre speaker: two bass woofers, two midrange drivers and an aluminium dome tweeter featuring B&W’s Nautilus™ Tube Loaded technology. The other four drive units provide the rest of the sound, and each one is located within its own enclosure to maintain a purity of performance. All the drive units are powered by six class D amplifiers, providing a combined power output of 175Watts.
This combination means the Panorama is a true one-box solution. It provides more than enough bass output for the majority of living rooms, however if required it is simple to connect an outboard subwoofer such as Bowers & Wilkins’ award-winning PV1 for deep room-shaking bass.
Panorama is designed to partner a flatscreen TV, and offers flexibility when it comes to positioning. It can be placed on its own feet or attached to the wall using the supplied bracket for wall-mounted screens.
However the Panorama is positioned, there can little doubt over its beauty. Stylishly crafted in the same manner as its sibling the Zeppelin, the Panorama mixes sleek black with a shining aluminium panel to produce the best looking soundbar on the market, and one that it is designed to complement the looks of the latest flatscreen televisions, not detract from them. It is designed to partner flatscreen televisions, from 37inches upwards.
With a recommended retail price of $2999, the Panorama will be available from Bowers and Wilkins stockists commencing August.
