British audio brand Bowers & Wilkins and global icon David Beckham have partnered to create a unique alliance of style and sound, where David’s refined taste meets Bowers & Wilkins’ unwavering pursuit of perfection. The announcement marks the start of a long-term partnership that will explore David Beckham’s relationship with music and the special role it plays in his life. As a long-term fan of the brand, and proud owner of many of its audio products, David Beckham chose to collaborate with Bowers & Wilkins because of its unrivalled reputation for audio excellence, craftmanship and class-leading, premium design. “Music has always played an important role in my life. I think it’s the same for everybody, it can take you back to somewhere, a specific time or place.” David Beckham Bowers & Wilkins and David Beckham. Bound by Excellence. #BowersWilkins #DavidBeckham #BoundByExcellence #BeckhamPx8
I bought B&W simply because of their excellence both in high end production studios (long term testing), and because they align with the engineering and sound quality I am looking for. After all, its all about high quality reproduction. PMC or ATC are not taking the 'celeb to sell' approach, but companies work differently. Most real HiFi users/engineers do A-B testing anyway, so marketing has little bearing on decision. No offence to David, his branding for fashion carries weight, but I doubt this will sway the most ardent of HiFi buffs... There again, it might?
Many thanks to the team for getting this done, so proud to be a part of this!!!
This is some incredible and exciting news! As a fan of and proud owner of many of B&W products, I cannot wait to see what Bowers & Wilkins will accomplish with this partnership.
What IS David Beckham's refined taste? What they're not telling us is that he's listening to Nickelback (I think I see the band's name written on his neck).
Yes they are perfect! The best earphones i have ever heard, but, has someone tried to used wired to a Marantz A/B pure analog, amplifier??, for sure with every chain splited.. High res music, Advanced DAC, etc?? Believeme they Sound perfect, Just as my pair of vintage Bowers and Wilkins DM602.5 S3, the LAST models made in England, they are a treasure for me!
Impressive partnership, but money would have been better spent reviving the dealer network and breathing some love back into the whole setup. Love B&W, but they just aren’t what they used to be unfortunately
My experience with this company (formation bar) was horrible. 6 speakers damaged without any reason
cool!!! Do you need a PCB and PCBA supplier?
this was probably very expensive, but its cheap

6moIsn't this the same guy being the new face for Ali Express? Not sure if B&W will get the message of their craftmanship across this way... PS: I am available for a fraction of the cost, being a genuine B&W enthousiast...
