Bowers & Wilkins CM Center 2 S2 Centerspeaker

B&W CM Centre 2 S2 – Massive center speaker for precise home cinema sound

The Bowers & Wilkins CM Centre 2 S2 is a high-quality center speaker specifically designed for ambitious home cinema systems. Perfectly matched to the CM series floorstanding speakers, such as the CM9 S2, it delivers a homogeneous, harmonious sound image and ensures that dialogue, effects, and music are reproduced precisely and clearly.

With its two robust 165 mm woofers, the CM Centre 2 S2 effortlessly handles even the most intense action scenes. At the same time, the unique FST midrange drivers ensure crystal-clear reproduction of voices and instruments, so every detail remains audible. Precise tuning to the CM series front speakers guarantees a coherent, spatial soundstage that elevates home cinema evenings to a new level.

The design impresses with its elegance and functionality. The speaker is available in real wood veneer in red walnut or with a lacquer finish in satin white or glossy black. The magnetic front grille allows for a clean look without visible mounting points and can be quickly removed if needed.

Bowers & Wilkins relies on state-of-the-art technology: The patented Nautilus tweeter ensures clear, undison-free highs, while the Kevlar FST midrange driver accurately reproduces the critical midrange frequencies. The combination of paper/Kevlar woofers and the Flowport bass-reflex system delivers deep, dynamic bass with reduced distortion. High-quality crossover components, Mundorf capacitors, and Van den Hul internal wiring ensure minimal signal loss and a highly detailed, high-resolution soundstage.

Thanks to its bi-wiring capability, solid nickel-plated connectors, and robust housing construction, the CM Centre 2 S2 is durable and ideally suited for demanding home cinema setups. This results in a natural, precise sound that convincingly conveys the entire film action into the listening room.
