The training lasted two full days and included technical training, hands on training and incredible demonstrations. Jason and Iain learned about the history and technology of all the B&W Group brands including Bowers & Wilkins, Rotel and Classe. The discovered the importance of high performance audio and why it is important to their business and more importantly, to their customer’s lives.Iain and Jason were also treated to some spectacular demonstrations including a pair of Bowers & Wilkins 800 Diamond speakers paired with a DB-1 subwoofer. The system was powered by Classe amplifiers using a Classe CP-800 for control.They listened to some unbelievable theater demonstrations on a variety of systems including the Panorama 2, the CI 600 series system, the CI700 series system, the CT 700 series system and the CI 800 series system. The theater experience culminated in a demonstration of Bowers & Wilkins reference CT 800 system. The system packs world class performance with concussive dynamics and incredible detail.If that wasn’t enough, the guys got to learn hands-on setup of a stereo system, including how to properly voice a set of speakers. They learned how easy it was to setup Airplay on a Bowers & Wilkins wireless music system. They covered room design and the fundamentals of acoustics. Also, room calibration and parametric equalization are now a snap for Iain and Jason! Perhaps the most important element of the two day training was the ability to meet with other audio and video system designers throughout the country. Jason and Iain were able to share ideas with ideas with their peers and discover what is working well for others around the country. There was plenty of time for roundtable discussions about the audio/video industry in general. The training concluded with a demonstration of Bowers & Wilkins iconic Nautilus speakers. The Nautilus speakers are celebrating their 20th anniversary this year and still prove to be a stunning representation of how music reproduction should sound. The speakers were powered by four Classe amplifiers, the brand new CAD200’s and controlled with a Classe CP-800. Stunning and jaw-dropping were just a couple of the descriptions of the sound. Just and Jason or Iain, they will tell you themselves…. On October 17th, Chris Trojnar from Bowers & Wilkins visited Custom Audio Video. Chris spent the entire day at CAV as was able to interact with design, sales and installation staff. Chris reviewed the entire new B&W Group product including the amazing new B&W CM10 speakers. Including the look of the CM series and many features found in the 800 series, the CM10’s have become B&W’s most affordable “tweeter on top” speaker and are now shipping. Chris also reviewed the new offerings from Rotel including two new 5 channel amplifiers, two new 2 channel amplifiers, a new preamplifier, digital to analog converter and two new integrated amplifiers. The product review concluded with a discussion about the new Classe CAD 200. This is Classe’s first digital amplifier and is also now their most affordable amplifier. The performance of the CAD 200 is unparalleled in its class. The CAD 200 is shipping soon. Chris also spent time in CAV’s two channel listening room where the B&W 802 Diamond speakers were voiced in the room. The final touch of adding the spikes provided the final touch to a perfect sound.
