Bowers & Wilkins PV1D Matte Black

A unique take on subwoofer design, PV1D uses two opposed drivers in a super-rigid enclosure to deliver fast, clean, firm solid bass for music and movies.

Turn up the pressure

Bring all the power of those big action movies home with the high-intensity stealth subwoofer.

More bass, much less shake

Along with its ultra-rigid enclosure, PV1D uses horizontally-opposed bass drivers, working back-to-back. That spreads the bass better, and also makes the whole assembly self-damping, keeping it stable and inert. 

Take control

The simple, intuitive touch-control panel lets you 'dial in' PV1D for use with everything from little satellite speakers to big floorstanding models: behind it is advanced digital processing to make the most of all the bass on offer.

PV = Pressure Vessel™

PV1D takes its style from the inherently strong form of diving spheres and other pressure vessels: simply, it was the only shape able to handle all that power.
