B&W HTM61 S2 centre speaker

The Bowers & Wilkins HTM61 S2 is the larger of the two centre speakers in the 600 S2 Series and is tailor-made to partner either of the two floorstanding main speakers (the 683 S2 or 684 S2) in a commanding home theatre system. B&W HTM61 S2 is an impressive piece of equipment in itself: a full, three-way speaker comprising two aluminium 165mm diameter bass/midrange drivers, a 150mm diameter Kevlar midrange with FST cone surround technology, and a double dome decoupled tweeter. It doesn't have to be laid horizontal beneath the screen, as is the custom with centre speakers. If space is lacking, it is possible to stand it upright. Either way, the B&W HTM61 S2 is capable of stunning dialogue quality in a home cinema system.

Twin ported at the rear with flow port technology, the symmetrical design aids dispersion of high frequencies, giving terrific voice clarity, with impressive punchy, precise midrange and bass.

Who are Bowers and Wilkins?

Bowers & Wilkins is a company who needs a very little introduction, having been constructing some of the world's most critically acclaimed loudspeaker and headphone models for half a decade. Starting at the entry level 600 S2 series, through to the new 700 S2 series audiophile range, 800 Diamond series and flagship Nautilus model. These different series of loudspeaker have been praised as the superior listening experience in both two-channel hifi/music listening and in multi-channel home theatre applications, having claimed a vast multitude of awards in both categories. A Bowers speaker can be easily recognised by the signature yellow Kevlar midrange cone, which can be found with their 600 series with the latest 700 and 800 Series opting for a silver 'continuum' cone.
