DPM BOWERS & WILKINS DPM: 601
Bowers and Wilkins, UK’s premier speaker manufacturer, invited DPM to create their own version of the DPM: 601 for limited distribution.
After the very successful release of the snow camouflage speakers maharishi have teamed up with Bowers & Wilkins (aka B&W) to release the very limited edition DPM: 601 DPM speaker clad in the woodland colourway of Maharishi’s Bonsai Forest camouflage print. Only 90 pairs are available worldwide.
The speaker itself is a compact bookshelf/stand-mount speaker that combines a 165mm (6 1/2-in) woven Kevlar cone bass/midrange driver with a Nautilus tube-loaded metal dome tweeter. The cabinet features extra internal bracing for reduced colouration. The speaker also features B&W’s Flowport technology that uses golf-ball-style dimples to improve air-flow in the reflex ports.
In keeping with DPM style, the camouflage patterns are used with high vis orange cones and details.
