Fascinating. Thank you!
Wonderful..!!
Gold Nautilus!! 😍😍😍😍
This video is absolutely fascinating. It's so cool to see and understand the amount of work and skill that goes into making a quality speaker 👍. Definitely makes me want to go out and buy a set of B&W speakers...... as soon as finances permit😂.
ANDY KEEPS GETTING BETTER DOING THESE TOURS ‼️…THANKS ABSOLUTE SOUND,FOR SHARING THIS TOUR 🤗😎💚💚💚
B&W high end speakers look so much better on the inside.
The Apple Jon Ive of B&W
Tannoy next?
If it looks like a box 📦
You should show measurement too . How good it is
So Many people buy cables that are so expansive
And inside the Speaker are simple conectors for the Crossover
So nice for vodoooooo :)
Amazing content. B&W tells us they can afford and do use automation and robots (due to volumes) also for quality, whereas others such as Wilson tell us they prefer handwork for the same purpose. I could assume the latter is kinda phony, as men fail vs. machine consistency. Design and purpose is something else, but would we need B&w to take over Wilson for better sound and less expensive products?
44:35 Dose anybody know the paintcode for That Green.
Bending wood is not a new tech, in Canada we were doing hockey stick with curve blade for a long time.
Nice product, but too expensive and weird looking.
£40K for a set of speakers is out of my reach. ☹
Buy some of us here can and have …..good luck
Now all they have to do is 'CHANGE THEIR LOOK!.. THE MOST HORRIBLE LOOKING SPEAKERS ON THE MARKET'! 44:30
You sound like a very successful person.
Is this company an equal opportunity employment? Don't look like it , my money be spent elsewhere .speakers looks isn't my taste either.
Can you make your point easier to understand?
Oh you didn’t see any black people Glenn? Is that your problem ?
