801 Abbey Road

About the 801 Abbey Road

The Bowers & Wilkins 801 Abbey Road Limited Edition is a celebration of the unique 45-year relationship between Bowers & Wilkins and Abbey Road Studios. Based on the acclaimed 801 D4 Signature platform, this limited edition takes the company's flagship loudspeaker and reframes it in homage to the world-famous recording studio. Only 140 pairs are being produced worldwide, each featuring a carefully crafted Vintage Walnut cabinet complemented by bespoke red Leather by Connolly trim that references the aesthetic of Abbey Road's Studio Two control room. Each loudspeaker includes a unique numbered stainless steel backplate identifying it as one of the 140 pairs, and buyers receive a hardcover book documenting the shared history between the two brands. The drive-unit array and enclosure geometry remain unchanged from the 801 D4 Signature, preserving the acoustic performance that Abbey Road engineers adopted as their reference monitor. This is Bowers & Wilkins' most expensive speaker aside from the Nautilus, and the only one that comes with a tour of Abbey Road Studios.
