Description

A Timeless Icon
Nautilus stands apart, both visually and audibly. Revolutionary at its debut, it remains a design and performance benchmark in high-end audio. Its innovative spirit influences everything we create. Available in three striking finishes: Midnight Blue, Black, and Silver.

Pioneering Sound Innovation
The Nautilus' signature tapered damping tubes revolutionized speaker design by allowing the drive units to perform at their best, effortlessly absorbing unwanted energy for pristine audio clarity.

Crafted by Sound
From the first glance, it’s clear that Nautilus is no ordinary speaker. Even after nearly 25 years, it remains a symbol of sophistication and cutting-edge technology in the world of high-end audio.

A Visionary Design for Tomorrow
The bold spirals and tapering tubes were born from Bowers & Wilkins' groundbreaking research into optimizing speaker drive units. This innovation, known as Nautilus Tube technology, earned a Queen’s Award for Innovation and is now integral to nearly every speaker we produce.

The Genius of the Nautilus Tube
The goal was to let you hear only the driver’s pure sound—free from distortions caused by rear-wave reflections. Traditional speaker enclosures trap sound, creating unwanted resonances. Nautilus' tapering tubes ingeniously eliminate stray energy, reducing resonances to near-zero levels for unmatched sound quality.
