Bowers & Wilkins DM5 - Manual (Page 3)

In order toobtainareallysati8fyir>g bass
response from a loudsp^er system, it was.
until comparatively recently necessary to
have a free standing enclosure of approx­
imately 50 to 60litres
Which effectively ruled out a really faithful
reproduction of oiigirtal sound for most home
listeners: they simply didn’t have the space.
Now. with the DM5, a mere 19 li^ repro*
duces the whole musics spectrum from the
lowest organ pedal note to the transient
attack of a cymbal crash
What's more the OM5 has low 'Q." another
qu^ity that is extremely difficult to achieve in
a small ^aker. What this means to the home
listener is that the speakers can be mounted
on a wall or intoa shelving system, without
the bass becoming resonant or boomy
The ^S s technical achievement in produc­
ing a big sound from a small enclosure is
matched by its appearance A choice of
Rosewood. Teak or Walnut N^eers.oraSatin
White finish ensures that it will blend success-
fully with just aboul^y existing interior decor.
