Bowers & Wilkins has revealed a weatherproof loudspeaker named the AM-1 Architectural Monitor
The AM-1 features an unusual inverted drive unit configuration, with a 1-inch Nautilus tube loaded aluminum-dome tweeter mounted below the 5-inch glass fiber bass/mid driver
The AM-1 features a cast aluminum wall bracket with one-plug mounting system
The B&W AM-1 monitors are available in either black or white
The glass-filled plastic housing is fronted by an aluminum grille
The cast aluminum wall bracket allows it to be rotated 110 degrees from its center in both directions
B&W says that the inverted drive unit configuration ensures optimum audio delivery when the unit is mounted high on a wall
The AM-1 has been designed for landscape or portrait positioning
There's an auxiliary bass radiator to the rear that's claimed to offer an exceptional bass response while also allowing the housing to be sealed against the elements
Article Summary
There are lots of options for enjoying outdoor audio whatever the weather, including TDK's Wireless Weatherproof Speaker, the Eco Terra Boombox and Braven's Bluetooth speakers. If you're looking for a permanent speaker installation, though, high-end audio specialist Bowers & Wilkins (B&W) says its new AM-1 Architectural Monitors are a little different from standard wall-mounted, weatherproof loudspeakers.
