Speaker Stands - Bowers and Wilkins

Speaker stands provide a balanced, isolated support designed to allow bookshelf speakers to deliver a more open and realistic sound. Bookshelf speakers are often referred to as standmount speakers because they will always sound best on proper speaker stands. We also sell product specific stands designed to match specific speaker models.

Many stands can also be filled (using stand filler) to improve and adjust bass response. This section features speaker stands which can be used with any bookshelf speakers of a suitable size.

We also highly recommend spending at least 10% of the value of your speakers on speaker cables. With a good pair of stands and set of speaker cables, you give your speakers the best chance to sound as great as they can; making it a worthy investment in the enjoyment you'll get from listening to your hi-fi system.

In addition to providing excellent support, speaker stands are designed to raise the tweeter on the speakers to ear level and many of the designs are 600mm high which is ideal for most speakers and seated sofa levels. However, shorter and taller speaker stands are available to use with speakers of different sizes where they need less or more height to position the tweeter at ear level.

Our range of speaker stands include the premium Partington range, the beautifully designed wooden Atacama Moseco range and the Custom Design range (many of which can accommodate deeper and wider speaker types). If you need help finding a pair of stands to match your speakers, please call or e-mail us for advice.

Bowers & Wilkins is a leading audio brand established over 50 years ago. They have received numerous awards and excellent reviews for class leading products. Their current range includes the latest 600 S3 and 700 S3 loudspeaker ranges.

Bowers & Wilkins was originally founded over 50 years ago by John Bowers and Roy Wilkins, who met while serving in the Royal Corps of Signals. Bowers & Wilkins was originally an electronics radio shop and over time John Bowers became more involved in speaker design, initially with an assembly line at the back of their shop. Bowers then started a separate business for the manufacture of the speakers, with Wilkins involved in the UK distribution of the brand among others.

John Bowers dreamed of making the perfect loudspeaker. That is a speaker which is faithful to the artists original intent in the studio or to the sound of the live performance. Such a speaker should reveal the true sound of the recording, with every nuance and without anything being added or taken away.

Over the resulting 50+ years of loudspeaker design and manufacturer, Bowers and Wilkins has had an obsessive focus on perfection. The design has to be the very best, nothing less will suffice. John Bowers said 'If you make a better product, you will sell it'

This same persuit for perfection runs through everying Bowers & Wilkins do today. They explore every possible technical, design and engineering option to ensure the resulting product is greater than the sum of its parts and the best it can possibly be. As a result, they have won numerous awards and several of their speakers are class leaders - offering the best possible performance in their price bracket.

An aspirational brand, we are proud to add their products to our range, with a good selection of products in stock and on demo in our showroom.
