The MM-1 desktop speaker is designed by the same acoustic engineering team that developed Zeppelin and the high-end 800 Series speakers used in Abbey Road Studios. Unlike many desktop solutions, the MM-1 is a serious hi-fi speaker: a full range, active, near field monitor, with two separate drive units including an aluminium dome tweeter.
Key proprietary Bowers & Wilkins technologies such as Nautilus Tube Loaded tweeters find their way into a speaker of this type for the first time. And new DSP technologies such as Bowers & Wilkins’ own Dynamic EQ, maximises bass output, and allows the MM-1 to provide full range sound without the need to resort to a subwoofer.
The MM-1 comes supplied with a pebble remote control that provides intuitive control over the speaker, and also works within iTunes and Windows Media Player on a Mac or PC.
The MM-1 is available soon from Bowers & Wilkins authorised dealers with a recommended retail price of $699.95.
