B&W HTM6 2-Way Centre Speaker

Dialogue that can keep up with the award-winning B&W 600 Series.

The B&W 600 Series speakers have undergone several iterations since their introduction as an accessible, visually modest, and high-quality range of speakers. In this latest iteration, B&W have merged the HTM62 S2 and the HTM61 S2 centre channels into one powerful, punch-packing speaker that offers the best of 600 series performance in a smaller, more preferred size.

Voices are delivered with purity and precision, thanks to the smooth, accurate Continuum cone midrange driver.

The new HTM6 speaker isn’t just about cleaner sound, it boasts a more sophisticated look, too. B&W have removed the grille pegs and replaced them with magnets, while moving the port to the rear of the cabinet, creating a modern and premium aesthetic.

Key Features:
- 2-way, full-range centre speaker
- Powerful sound that can keep up with the best of the 600 series
- Flowport technology for controlled bass
- Continuum cone bass/midrange driver for improved clarity
- Decoupled Double Dome aluminium tweeter for crisp highs
- Stylish, removable magnetic grilles

B&W ASW608 8" 200W Active Subwoofer

For big sound in smaller spaces, you can’t beat the Bowers & Wilkins ASW608, the most compact of the 600 Series subwoofers.

Key Features:
- 8" Paper/Aramid fibre cone long-throw driver
- 200 Watt Class D amplifier
- Active closed-box subwoofer system
- Frequency range: -6dB at 23Hz and 25/140Hz adjustable
- Line level and Speaker level inputs
- Stylish, removable grilles
- Matte finish matches 600 Series range loudspeakers perfectly

Layered, beautiful details

As seen on the 607, the 607 S2 Anniversary Edition speakers also benefit from the refined Decoupled Double Dome tweeters, offering 38kHz breakup performance. With a re-engineered assembly for better performance, the result is a pure and precise soundscape that allows you to enjoy all the layers of your favourite music.

This tweeter technology maintains a dual-layer aluminium diaphragm but has been upgraded with the high-end Neodymium magnet inherited from the 700 Series.

Speakers that look as good as they sound

In addition to the performance upgrades, the new 600 Series Anniversary Edition includes some important design enhancements. We reintroduce the red Cherry cabinet finish, last seen in 2018, and introduce a brand-new fourth option, Oak. Available in the three stereo models and the centre channel, these complement the existing matte black or matte white finishes.

All models also feature a new celebratory Anniversary Edition logo inscribed on the tweeter surround. This metallic component is offered in either a light or a dark finish depending on the colour of the cabinet finish – light metallic for white and Oak, dark metallic for black and red Cherry.

The new 607 S2 speakers aren’t just about cleaner sound, they boast a more sophisticated look, too. The sixth-generation speakers removed the grille pegs and replaced them with magnets, while moving the port to the rear cabinet, creating a modern and premium aesthetic, wrapped with a matte finish.

The first thing you'll notice about these speakers when they're set up in your room is the contrast between the polished metal of the tweeter to the sharp lines and corners of the enclosure.

Truly amazing sound

600 Series Anniversary Edition includes proven drive units derived from the 800 Series Diamond. It partners those superior ingredients with carefully upgraded crossover components, resulting in an even better resolution and superlative musicality.

Voices and instruments are delivered with purity and precision, thanks to the smooth, accurate Continuum cone midrange driver.

Developed over an eight-year period and first featured on Bowers & Wilkins' flagship 800 Series Diamond models, the Continuum cone has been integrated into the sixth generation of the critically acclaimed 607s, and now in the 607 Anniversary Edition speakers. In addition to appearing more sophisticated than the trademark Kevlar yellow, these cones transform the speakers' performance into something far beyond what you might expect from an entry-level system.

These eye-catching silver mid-range cones represent a modern Bowers & Wilkins. Similar to Kevlar cones, this woven composite material offers more flexibility and driver control. They offer lower-noise and better self-dampening than Kevlar, and the impulse response time is far quicker than previous cone technologies.

What this means for you is clearer sound, punchier mids, and more controlled bass. Perfect for explosive home theatre or music, no matter the genre.

The improved paper bass cones combine effortless power and endless low-end with the precision and low-distortion accuracy you’d expect from Bowers & Wilkins.

Upgrades across the frequency range

Remaining aligned with the 600 Series philosophy, the Anniversary Edition benefits directly from upgraded acoustic performance developed for the brand's highest-performance models. Every bypass capacitor on every crossover across all models is new and greatly improved.

The capacitors have been specially treated by Mundorf, who provided components for the recently launched 700 Series Signature range. In addition, the main high-frequency and mid-frequency capacitors have been upgraded with new, improved designs. The result is greatly improved resolution and transparency across every model in the range that must be heard to be appreciated.
