Steinway & Sons continues to set a benchmark for excellence, particularly with the introduction of the BWS-210 in-wall woofer. Designed specifically for custom-installed Steinway Lyngdorf systems, the BWS-210 stands out as a premier solution for those seeking powerful bass performance in a space-saving format.
Unmatched Design for Shallow Installations
The BWS-210 is engineered to fit seamlessly into 6-inch (15 cm) cavity walls, making it the ideal choice for installations where depth is a concern. Its shallow design does not compromise on performance; instead, it integrates two high-excursion 10-inch woofers that deliver precise, punchy, and powerful bass. This innovative woofer design features a patented voice-coil/cone geometry and suspension system, allowing for remarkable sound quality while maintaining a minimal footprint.
The BWS-210’s construction includes a four-layer voice coil, an ultra-rigid dual aluminum cone, and a powerful neodymium magnet, all housed in an extremely rigid cast aluminum basket. These components work together to produce a bass response that meets the high standards of Steinway & Sons, ensuring that every note is delivered with clarity and impact.
Seamless Integration with Steinway Lyngdorf Systems
For audiophiles and home theater enthusiasts, the BWS-210 is designed to complement any Steinway & Sons in-wall, on-wall, or floorstanding loudspeaker. When paired with Steinway Lyngdorf’s A1 or A2 digital amplifiers, the woofer achieves optimal bass performance and dynamic headroom, enhancing the overall listening experience.
Installation is straightforward, thanks to the BWS-210’s paintable, magnetically held grill that allows for a clean and unobtrusive appearance in any room. Whether installed in-wall or as a boundary woofer, this model adapts effortlessly to various setups, making it a versatile addition to any audio system.
Superior Construction for Enhanced Sound Quality
The BWS-210 is built with a focus on minimizing unwanted resonance and vibration. Its enclosure is crafted from high-quality MDF, reinforced with internal bracing to ensure durability and rigidity. This thoughtful construction not only enhances sound quality but also contributes to the longevity of the woofer, making it a worthwhile investment for serious audio enthusiasts.
