Bowers & Wilkins CWM8.3 D

Yes, the speaker features a rotatable central baffle that can be turned 90 degrees. This allows you to maintain optimal sound dispersion whether you mount the speaker vertically or horizontally.

The CWM8.3 D is recommended for use with amplifiers providing up to 200W of power. Given its 89dB sensitivity, it is designed to handle high-quality amplification to deliver its full dynamic range.

Yes, this model is designed as a high-performance in-wall system that typically requires a dedicated back box to ensure the correct acoustic loading and cabinet volume for the drivers to perform as intended.

With dual 7-inch Aerofoil bass drivers and a frequency range extending down to 30Hz, these speakers offer substantial low-end performance. While they are capable of deep, powerful bass on their own, a dedicated subwoofer may still be preferred for dedicated home theater setups requiring extreme sub-bass impact.

You will need a cutout measuring 864mm (34 inches) in height and 238mm (9.4 inches) in width. Ensure your wall cavity has sufficient depth to accommodate the speaker assembly before installation.
