DM640i
Floor-standing loudspeaker system
Product Summary
Designed with the more demanding digital sources of the nineties in mind, the 600 series has
earned a reputation for minimal coloration and musical accuracy in audio reproduction.
Successfully capturing the transients found in music meant developing a loudspeaker able to
do justice to the attack of the original audio signal.
Designed by a master of industrial design Dr Kenneth Grange, the cool, dark lines of the
600 series cabinet are perfect partner for contemporary furniture and interior design settings.
The profound low frequency response is achieved by the use of heavier Cobex cones in the
two 8in bass drivers, delivering a lower fundamental resonant frequency. The midrange unit is
a separate, acoustically isolated Kevlar driver mounted in its own sub enclosure.
This has been enhanced in the DM640 by taking the Silver Signature Kevlar cone profile,
and introducing a new rubber surround, making it identical in every respect to the Kevlar
driver in the much acclaimed B&W Matrix 805.
The crossover has been revised to accommodate the changed response of the new midrange
drive unit.
Technical highlights
B&W's Tweeter technology ensures that the sound remains focused and time sensitive and
that the stereo image is presented with unparalleled three dimensional accuracy.
The strict acoustic requirements of the cabinet have dictated a front baffle moulding of extra
high rigidity. The polymer has been chosen for its composition and ability to reduce unwanted
resonances to a minimum.
