bw matrix 802 s3 Brochure

●

The Matrix 802 has a highly linear, high efficiency motor system which delivers the long

throw and symmetrical field required to produce an outstanding low frequency response. 

●

The Matrix 802 shares many of the key attributes of the Matrix 801. Its only real difference is

size. Although only slightly taller than the Matrix 801, it occupies less than half the floor

space. The Matrix 802 is therefore the natural choice where floorspace is limited, but the

demand is still for a superb studio quality 3-way monitor.

Kevlar®: B&W developed and patented the method of using Kevlar® for

loudspeaker cones to reduce unwanted standing waves. DuPont originally

created Kevlar® for use in bulletproof vests. 

Matrix: The basic construction of nearly all loudspeakers is exactly the same -

panels of wood-based materials, bonded to form a rectangular box. B&W

studied and evaluated how each aspect of cabinet behaviour and the efficiency

of various materials and construction methods affects sound.

Tweeter on top: B&W's Tweeter on top technology ensures that the sound

remains focused and time-sensitive and that the stereo-image is presented with

unparalleled three dimensional accuracy.
