Great Sound Anywhere, Indoors or Outdoors
The Bowers & Wilkins architectural monitor AM-1 is designed to be used anywhere. It's perfect for use around the pool or mounted outdoors year-round, thanks to its weather resistance.
For those who want to bring impeccable Bowers & Wilkins sound quality to places where conventional speakers fear to tread, the AM-1 is the ideal solution. This ultra-durable, weather resistant speaker is designed with the outdoors in mind – perfect for patios, gardens, and poolside – but its robust design and sleek looks also make it a great choice for public indoor spaces.
Use Anywhere
With its rust-proof aluminum grille and super-rigid cabinet, AM-1 is Bowers & Wilkins' most durable speaker yet. To make sure every AM-1 is highly resistant to the elements, each speaker must pass a range of rigorous weather tests, including UV exposure and testing inside an accelerated salt-spray chamber. Indoors or outdoors, at home or in a restaurant, it’s guaranteed to perform whatever the weather.
High-Performance Technology
The AM-1 takes everything Bowers & Wilkins knows about high performance audio and adapts it to meet the demands of a versatile, all-weather monitor. The speaker combines tried and trusted technologies with new innovations – like an inverted driver array for optimum sound dispersion when the speaker is mounted high on a wall, and an advanced bass radiator design that maximizes low-frequency performance while keeping the speaker sealed from the elements.
ABR Auxiliary Bass Radiator
With the AM-1, Bowers & Wilkins came up with an ingenious solution to the problem of producing powerful bass from a weatherproof speaker. Instead of the Flowport™ found in the company's traditional speakers, AM-1’s cabinet integrates a rear-mounted auxiliary bass radiator (ABR). As well as maintaining the cabinet’s weather-tight seal, the ABR gives the AM-1 truly remarkable bass response for a speaker of its kind.
Easy to Install
The AM-1 has been carefully designed to be easy to install. Its elegant cast aluminum wall bracket incorporates an ingenious one-plug mounting system. Combine this with minimal wall projection and a design that allows the speaker to be angled through 220 degrees, and you have a discreet, versatile monitor that can provide you with pristine sound almost anywhere.
