What Is a Theater Speaker?

Speakers are intricate pieces of equipment, but they're often not purpose-built. Instead, homeowners can enjoy the benefits of just about any sized speaker without much difference in sound quality. Cabinetry and materials ensure the quality of the audio, not the size of the unit.

So, what is the difference when it comes to theater speakers? Any loudspeaker in B&W’s line of high-end speakers should deliver the same sound. However, theater speakers have a specific feature that makes them easy to spot, and a perfect addition to your home setup.

Unlike floor-standing or bookshelf speakers, which are primarily designed for two-channel sound staging, theater speakers are center-channel devices optimized for movie performance. The center channel handles all the dialogue, while the side channels play music and sound effects. Also, theater speakers are oriented horizontally, for maximum performance.

B&W's HTM1 D3 speaker is specially designed for high-end playback. The company's iconic Diamond Dome tweeter sits atop the device to deliver loads of detail in the upper registers. And the exclusive Continuum Cone drivers balance things out with a superior bass response.

HTM1 D3 is built to bring you better sound in your home theater.

Find Bowers & Wilkins Speakers

If you're looking for a superior sound that can't be found in your local big-box store, you need to work with a certified Bowers & Wilkins dealer. At Home Theater of Long Island, we help you find the audio solutions that work with your lifestyle and budget.
