Bowers & Wilkins Panorama Soundbar

Bowers & Wilkins aims to introduce some class into your living room with the Panorama soundbar. The Panorama will be equipped with Digital Signal Processing (DSP) and half a dozen separate, individually amplified speaker channels that are specially positioned so that sound is reflected off walls to create a surreal surround sound effect all from a single enclosure. There will be two front, two rear, one center and one subwoofer amplified speaker channels, and you can choose from three different settings for various listening environments. The center speaker has been optimized for movie viewing, while the midrange drive units utilize glass fiber cones so that the muddying effects of standing waves are reduced. As for the twin internal subwoofers, they are Kevlar reinforced for added stability under pressure. As the brand name suggests, you’ll have to pay through the nose for the Bowers & Wilkins Panorama this spring at $2,200.
