For some people, when they walk into a room, the last thing they want to see are speakers. So in this case, the best option is in-ceiling speakers.

Bowers and Wilkins have designed a series of in-ceiling speakers that feature an ultra-thin bezel frame that makes these speakers virtually invisible and seem to disappear into the ceiling, while lending an elegant appearance in the decor of the living space. The designers at Bowers and Wilkins understand that a person rarely stands directly under a speaker while listening, with the new CI series of in-ceiling speakers; they can be positioned in the perimeter of the room so they are out of sight; a switch located on the front baffle to angle the midrange frequencies for perfect clarity and focus, the tweeters can be postioned in a variety of angles, no matter where you listen for the perfect in-ceiling speaker.

Each in-ceiling speaker in the Bowers and Wilkins has been developed with the same care and attention as they put into their conventional cabinet style loudspeakers. In fact, many technologies that are found in those speakers are found here in their in-ceiling models, such as, Kevlar woofers for a sound that is remarkably clean, clear, and dynamic. The CI Series of speakers offer models with woofers up to eight inches in diameter, for a full, rich bass with room-filling sound.

Three separate ranges comprise Bowers & Wilkins Custom Installation. CI 700 offers the best sounding installation speakers B&W ever produced. CI 600 sound amazing, too, but are more affordable, while the Classic series features a host of proven classics.

A high performance ceiling-mount speaker featuring a 8in Kevlar cone bass/midrange driver with a rigid die-cast chassis, and a Nautilus swirl-loaded aluminium dome tweeter that pivots for adjustable off-axis treble response. A 30mm coil and 100mm magnet make this an incredibly efficient and reliable speaker, with outstanding sound quality and a maximum amp power of 150W. Other features include superior crossovers components, gold plated terminals and a three-position EQ switch.

Compromise has never been part of the vocabulary at Bowers & Wilkins. Just ask the scientists at the Steyning Research Establishment, Bowers & Wilkins' dedicated acoustic R&D lab. For decades, the pioneering innovations developed here have influenced the way speakers are designed and built all over the world. Technological advances such as the Nautilus tweeter tube and Kevlar drive units have since been imitated, but never bettered. Today, Bowers & Wilkins technologies like these can be found everywhere sound quality matters - at top recording studios, for example, or concealed in walls and ceilings as part of a Bowers & Wilkins custom installation system.

TThe CCM683 shares most of the high-performance features of the CCM 682, but has a slightly lower maximum amp power of 130W. Like the CCM682, this speaker comes with a 8in Kevlar cone bass/midrange driver with a rigid die-cast chassis, a Nautilus swirl-loaded aluminium dome tweeter that pivots for adjustable off-axis treble response, and a three-position EQ switch.

Technology
Bowers & Wilkins remains at the forefront of speaker innovation thanks to our ongoing investment in technology. The CI 700 Series features Nautilus tweeters, FST Kevlar midrange drive units, and Flowport for improved bass performance, while a hinged reservoir box increases the internal volume of the speakers.

The entry point among the CI 600 range of 8in in-ceiling speakers, the two-way CCM684 features a 8in woven glass fibre cone bass/midrange driver and a soft dome tweeter in a neat circular ceiling mount chassis.

Sound
All of the CI 600 Series speakers have been carefully designed to create the optimum sound dispersion. The baffle is formed from a single moulding resulting in an incredibly rigid structure. The ceiling models feature a scallop underneath the tweeter for the perfect roll off for high-frequencies and more accurate sound reproduction.

The top 6in in-ceiling speaker in the CI 600 series,CCM662. This high-performance speaker features a Nautilus swirl-loaded 1in aluminium dome tweeter that pivots for adjustable off-axis treble response. Other highlights include a bass/midrange driver with a rigid die-cast chassis, a three-position EQ switch, superior crossover components, gold plated terminals and an impressive maximum amp power of 150W.

Care and attention
Each of B&W custom installation speakers has been developed with the same care and attention as they lavish on there more conventional, cabinet-based designs. Thanks to over forty years of experience in speaker development and our ongoing investment into science and technology, B&W continue to lead the way when it comes to sound quality. The CWM 663 speakers are no exception.

This high-performance 6in in-ceiling speaker features a Nautilus swirl-loaded 1in aluminium dome tweeter that pivots for adjustable off-axis treble response. Other highlights include a bass/midrange driver with a rigid die-cast chassis and a three-position EQ switch.

Hidden
A combination of features allow the CWM 663 to remain virtually invisible. Super-thin bezels that can be sprayed in a colour of your choice mean they are barely noticeable. allow a speaker to blend into its surrounding. Finally, dark internal surfaces ensure discreetness.

The CCM664 features an adjustable, tilt-offset 1in soft dome tweeter, and a 6in woven glassfibre bass/midrange driver. Quick and easy to install, the speaker also incorporates a three-position EQ switch for a better off-axis response. A cost-effective route to high quality ceiling mount sound.

Flexible
Harnessing the same Bowers & Wilkins technologies that are used in some of the world's best recording studios, the CI 600 Series of custom installation loudspeakers fill a room with stunning, lifelike, three dimensional sound. The result is a range that is near-invisible to the eye, but infinitely pleasing to the ear.

Bowers & Wilkins CCM 362 use the same acoustic and industrial design teams that created the higher-end in-ceiling speakers. While the new 300 Series has been designed for budget applications, the performance is clearly first rate. The CCM 362 is an in-ceiling model with a 6-inch polypropylene cone bass/midrange driver and a one-inch soft-dome tweeter. The CCM 362 feature the same thin bezeled frame as the CI600 models.

Speakers from Bowers & Wilkins have always been recognised as delivering the best audio experience at any level.
