About the SCM8
The Bowers & Wilkins SCM8 are dipole surround speakers from the THX Home Cinema Series, featuring a distinctive triangular shape and dipole radiation pattern that projects sound along two opposing axes with opposite polarity, creating a diffuse surround sound field with a wider null area and height illusion. They utilize Kevlar bass/midrange cones and metal dome tweeters, with a wall-mountable second-order closed-box system designed to reduce standing waves and cabinet coloration for seamless integration in multi-channel setups.
