Bowers & Wilkins AM-1 speaker pair

The Bowers & Wilkins AM-1 is a pair of weatherproof architectural monitors built for indoor and outdoor use. Each speaker combines a 1-inch Nautilus tube-loaded aluminium dome tweeter with a 5-inch glassfibre cone bass/midrange driver and an Auxiliary Bass Radiator. A rust-proof aluminium grille and glass-filled plastic cabinet resist moisture, dust and UV exposure. The inverted driver array optimises sound dispersion when mounted high on a wall.

Suits outdoor zones and commercial installs

These speakers suit patios, gardens, poolside areas, bars and restaurants where durable, wide-dispersion sound is required. Their weather-tested construction handles salt spray and temperature extremes without degradation. Buyers needing wireless streaming, battery power, or a compact portable form factor should consider alternative designs. The fixed mounting bracket and wired amplifier connection limit placement flexibility compared to standalone portable units.

Wired passive installation requirement

The AM-1 is a passive speaker pair requiring a separate amplifier and speaker cable runs for each unit. No wireless protocol, internal battery or network streaming capability is included. Installation demands structural mounting and weather-protected cabling to the amplifier location. Verify your amplifier provides suitable power and impedance matching for the 5-inch driver and ABR configuration before purchase.

Questions about this item

Should I buy the single speaker or the pair for stereo sound?

The product is sold as a matched pair, giving you left and right channels for proper stereo imaging across a patio or garden.

How does the 5-inch glassfibre driver perform when the speaker is mounted high on a wall?

The inverted driver array places the tweeter below the midrange driver, directing sound downward so listeners at ground level hear balanced audio even when the unit is installed under eaves.

What does the weatherproof rating actually protect against in daily use?

The rust-proof aluminium grille and glass-filled plastic cabinet are tested against UV exposure and accelerated salt-spray, so the speakers withstand rain, coastal air and direct sunlight without degradation.
