In the best movies, everything fits. Actors, dialogue, story line - it's when all these separate elements merge effortlessly together that you know you’re in for a great cinematic experience. The same goes for Bowers & Wilkins' Mini Theatre series.
Sleek, compact, yet packing a powerful punch, the M-1 satellite speaker is the backbone of Bowers & Wilkins' Mini Theatre system, taking all five positions in a surround-sound set-up. From the inside out, the M-1 was conceived as a unified system. Its design has evolved in a totally integrated way, from the custom-made crossover to the two-piece clamshell cabinet.
Taking on the roll of sub duty are one of three subwoofer options. From the size-defying compact cabinet of the ASW608 with an 8" driver and 200 watts of power, the larger bodied 10" ASW610, all the way to the striking looks (and sound!) of the PV1D. A unique take on subwoofer design from Bowers & Wilkins, the PV1D features 400 watts of power from two opposed 8" drivers in a highly ridgid almost spherical design.

The M-1's tweeter is no off the peg model - it’s a highly specialised piece of equipment custom-made by the same designers and engineers who created some of Bowers & Wilkins' best-known hi-fi speakers, including the CM Series.
As well as featuring a unique surround material, the tweeter is tube-loaded, a design innovation Bowers & Wilkins first introduced on their groundbreaking Nautilus speaker. The tube works by soaking up unwanted resonance from the back of the tweeter, so the sound you hear from the front is as detailed and precise as possible.
The redesigned bass/midrange driver features Bowers & Wilkins' AntiResonance Plug - an acoustic innovation first seen on their high-end PM1 loudspeaker. Constructed from polymer foam, the mushroom-shaped device soaks up resonance like a sponge while also reducing cone break-up, creating unparalleled clarity and detail in the midrange.
The ASW608 is Bowers & Wilkins' most compact subwoofer in the 600 series line up. But don't be fooled - it still packs defined, dramatic bass to to make your films and music boom.
The 8 inch driver in the ASW608 is designed for fast, tight and dramatic bass, even in the smallest of rooms.

"The B&W ASW610 sounds bigger than it looks, and more expensive than its price-tag."

- 2x 8" Paper/Kevlar/Aluminium long-throw drivers
- 400W of power
- 5 Presets via the digital interface

Bring all the power of the big action movies home with this intense but discreet subwoofer. The PV1D will fit right into your lounge or home-theatre decor! Pair the PV1D with the M1 speakers from Bowers & Wilkins' Mini Theatre range to create a system that is small in size, but large in sound.
Along with its incredibly rigid enclosure, the PV1D uses twin bass drivers that are horizontally-opposed, working back-to-back. This more effectively spreads the bass frequencies in the room and also means that the whole assembly is self-damping, keeping it stable and inert no matter how hard you drive it.
Optional Upgrade
