Each component plays its part in delivering sound without compromise. Bowers & Wilkins Nautilus embodies everything Bowers & Wilkins stands for: a no-holds-barred approach to creating the perfect loudspeaker. It represents B & W’s fundamental purpose, passion for True Sound, and the last wish of B & W’s founder, John Bowers. Nautilus is the pursuit of an ideal speaker and the approach and the methodology to get there. That’s what instilled in everyone, and that thread runs through today 30 years later.
Shaped by sound
Very few would dare to make something so bold. Admittedly, Nautilus is bold, even for us. Its instantly recognizable form may be pure art, but it was defined by the science of sound, remaining a constant reminder of what’s possible. The long, tapered damping tubes were a revolution, allowing the drive units to work optimally by gently absorbing stray energy. To this day, many of the ground-breaking technologies used in the creation of Nautilus are used elsewhere across our range of world-class loudspeakers.
Decades of detail
Constructing the complex shapes and precision drive units demands decades of experience and exacting attention to detail.
A lasting legacy
Nautilus is more than simply a beautifully designed object of desire: its high-quality performance is renowned the world over.
