About this product

The BW Nautilus 805 speakers, with Tweeter on top technology, ensure three dimensional presentation of sound while maintaining sound focus. Kevlar speaker cones of this BW Speaker reduce undesired standing waves. Flowport technique of this bookshelf speaker prevents distortion at high volume. The 88 dB spl sensitivity of the BW Nautilus 805 provides audible and clear audio, even with the volume dial at low. The Matrix construction of this BW Speaker ensures best sound quality.


Technology
All Nautilus 800 loudspeakers, including the 805, have common acoustical goals: a stable center image, good depth of soundstage (even off-axis), no coloration, excellent bass-transient performance ("slam"), and no compression. To meet these goals, the Nautilus 805 joins its brethren in having curved cabinet surfaces, a Matrix enclosure, a Nautilus tweeter, a woven Kevlar cone in the mid/bass driver, a "Flowport" venting system with computer-designed flare and anti-turbulence dimpling, separated crossover boards, and shrouded WBT speaker terminals.

The B&W Nautilus 805 is quite different from its predecessor, the good-sounding Matrix 805, in size, shape, drivers, crossover, and price (it costs 25% more).

The Nautilus 805's drivers are derived directly from the Nautilus 801's. the Nautilus 805 has a lower 120W system power rating. Its 1" aluminum-alloy dome tweeter has a neodymium/iron/boron magnet structure with copper-clad aluminum wire wound on a Kapton former, and is ferrofluid-cooled to improve power handling and reduce compression related to overheating. The tweeter housing is set behind the baffle to time-align the system, and uses a Raychem "Isopath" decoupling material to reduce vibration.
