Throughout his lifetime, John Bowers, the founder of B&W Loudspeakers, strove relentlessly to get as close as possible to a transparent reproduction of recorded sound.

In his relentless pursuit of perfection, John quickly built a reputation for himself, and his client base started to grow as more and more people seeking better sound reproduction came to his workshop to buy his custom-designed speakers. In 1966, John Bowers and his lifelong friend Peter Hayward founded a separate manufacturing company, then called B&W Electronics.

B&W's ASW active subwoofers have been specifically developed to exceed the demands of surround-sound formats such as AC3, MPEG-2 or DTS. Each model in the range incorporates the high level of technological innovation and quality found in all B&W products.
