801 Abbey Road Limited Edition

Celebrating the unique 45-year relationship between Bowers & Wilkins and Abbey Road, the 801 Abbey Road Limited Edition takes the 801 D4 Signature and reframes it in homage to the home of music making.

The start of something special

In 1979, John Bowers and his team developed the first 801 – a loudspeaker crafted for unrivalled accuracy. The engineers at Abbey Road immediately understood its value and adopted it as their monitor of choice full-time.

45 years of iconic sound

Over the last 45 years, successive generations of 800 Series loudspeakers have graced Abbey Road’s control rooms and contributed to the endlessly iconic music and film scores recorded there.

Celebrating a timeless legacy

The 801 Abbey Road Limited Edition is a celebration of the unique 45-year relationship between Bowers & Wilkins and Abbey Road. It takes the best loudspeaker Bowers & Wilkins currently manufactures and reframes it in homage to the home of music making.

Abbey Road-inspired finish

The Vintage Walnut cabinet is inspired by the iconic musical instruments that have illuminated Abbey Road over the decades. It’s complemented by a red Leather by Connolly trim, referencing both the control room in Studio Two and the red leather
chairs used by generations of performers in Studio One.

Limited-edition backplate

Each 801 Abbey Road Limited Edition loudspeaker is the ultimate expression of high-performance engineering and features a stainless steel backplate celebrating its exclusivity. The backplate features the iconic Abbey Road logo alongside an
inscription marking the speakers as one of only 140 pairs in existence.
