Bowers & Wilkins Formation Duo

Description

Introducing Bowers & Wilkins Formation Duo – the first wireless speakers that live up to the exacting audiophile standards of Bowers & Wilkins. Each one features our patented, Carbon Dome, tweeter-on-top technology for crystal clear highs, and the same innovative Continuum cone driver found on our industry-defining 800 Series Diamond speakers. When coupled with our exclusive Formation® Wireless Technology that produces an immersive, seamless, high-fidelity soundstage, we are redefining “wireless audio” – true to our groundbreaking heritage. Formation Duo is wired fidelity, wirelessly* – and why we like to think that they are the Highest Form of Sound™.

*Fidelity refers to Superlative Bowers & Wilkins Sound.
