#BowersWilkins #DM604S3 #Teardown

From B&W sheet: The imposing DM604 S3 is the only full 3-way system in
the range. The dedicated Kevlar® cone midrange driver is housed in its own isolated chamber within the cabinet and delivers all the nuances of the detail in the recording without the encumbrance of having to produce any bass.Twin 180mm (7 in) aluminium cone bass drivers combine with Flowport to deliver the deepest bass frequencies with ease. Like all the vented-box systems in the range, foam plugs are supplied to block the ports should the acoustic of the listening room impose too much bass
reinforcement. Suited to larger rooms, the DM604 S3 is capable of reproducing everything from the delicate sounds of a solo performance to the complexities of a large ensemble.

Specification of B&W DM604 S3:

- Frequency Response: 30Hz – 42kHz(-3dB); (-6dB).
- Power Handling (RMS): 200 W
- Recommended Amplifier Requirements (RMS): 25w - 150w
- Nominal Impedance: 8 Ohms (min 3ohm)
- External Dimensions: (HxWxD):994mm x236mm x398mm

They look nice. But the woofers seemed somewhat misleading with those super wide dust-caps. I almost thought the voicecoil was going to be very wide in diameter.

This line of the DM600S3 series is my absolute favorite. In sound AND looks. I have the DM603S3 and thr DM601S3. I bought them in 2005 and have been impressed for almost 20 years. But looking at this breakdown has taken some luster off of my "magic boxes". I still love them. But looking at the insides and the components makes me feel like I should try building my own.

I still love them though. I might see if I can find a used quality DM604S3 just to compare.

I’ve realized I should just build my own…thanks

[tottimejdi]

YOU CAN EASLY REPAir that tweeter. remove the dome with the three nuts and line it up with your fingers

[schemkesa]

build quality is very good, still performing after 10 years now at loud levels

[filipog]

Really nice video and presentation! :) Beautiful woofers, I love discovered voice coils.

It's not that B&W is any worse than Magnat Transpuls and all the others you had dissected, but it just goes to show that in the audiophile and Hi-Fi speaker racket, 90% of what you pay for is gimmicks, marketing hoopla, and vapor. All of them seem to eb building these things as inexpensively as possible. How much they end up costing -- that is where the "walking bullsh_t" part of the business equation becomes prevalent. Not picking on one single mfr -- they are all guilty as sin of doing this.

You can just pull the 4 screws from the face panel and leave the speakers attached.

This was not a very high model at the time, so material reflect this. I have few pairs of 604S2 and 605S2 and boxes are pretty much same. Money went into drivers, boxes are ok for price. Bit chunky, so happier in bigger rooms.

[heromail]

Audiophilers should enjoy not only the sound but also the music 😊

Отличное видео, спасибо! Привет из России!!! Когда будет разборка Focal Chora 826 ???

[Max-kolm]

А рамы у динамиков из пластика или из аллюминия?

[nicoastylehifiman]

i liked your video man, nice work,
the chassis of the bass speakers is made of aluminum ?

[janosnagy]

Electrolyt capacitors. Bravo B&W you saved 10 $ ...

[prateekbhardwaj]

I thought they uses 24 gold metal to make internal parts

I have the S2. Beautiful to see quality inside on speaker design. You can get the dent out of the tweeter by gently pressing side of the dents.

[kennylamchannel]

[SangramVID]
