‘Anywhere’ is the perfect position for the Bowers & Wilkins M-1 Satellite speaker.

Review
“Despite the relatively small size of the speakers, there’s real scale and breadth to soundtracks, while surround effects are steered confidently.” What Hi-Fi? magazine | www.whathifi.com
Features
Sleek, compact, yet packing a powerful punch, the M-1 satellite speaker can be used on its own, with a subwoofer in a 2.1 system, or as the backbone of your Mini Theatre system. From the inside out, the M-1 was conceived as a unified system. Its design has evolved in a totally integrated way, from the custom-made crossover to the two-piece clamshell cabinet.
And now, following a complete technological overhaul, including all-new drive units designed in-house, it sounds better than ever. Dispersion has increased. Imaging is pin-point accurate. Performance is now full range. In fact, the improvement is such that a single pair of M-1s could happily take on the role of your dedicated stereo speakers.
The speaker’s versatility allows it to adapt perfectly to any home environment, no matter how awkward the space.
- You can put the M-1 on a bookshelf.
- Or mount it on a wall.
- Or position it on its own floor-length stand.
- It can even swivel to a horizontal position, for when you want to use one as a centre channel speaker.
- Available in a choice of Matte Black or Matte White finishes, its clamshell cabinet is formed from just two interlocking, continuously curving sections.
It all adds up to stunning sound, whatever you are listening to.
Coloured to blend in or stand out
With a choice of matte black or matte white finishes for both the cabinet and the perforated steel grille , M-1 is ready to blend into the background or make a bold statement — the choice is yours. Either way, it makes a sophisticated statement.
Because your theatre is also your home
Judicious industrial design means M-1 will complement your lifestyle, not override it.
The MT-50 a small system with big, big sound
The sheer scale and punch the best movie soundtracks deserve, from the most adaptable little speaker system around.
