Product Ref: 305344
Formation marries wireless convenience with prime fidelity for an uninterrupted whole-home streaming experience. It is often the case with wireless audio that compromises have to be made on the sound quality and connection stability, the Bowers & Wilkins Formation Suite changes the game due to the use of 5GHz wireless technology. Using a proprietary mesh network perfect synchronisation between your speakers around your house is achieved and not only that, but you also gain industry-leading 96kHz/24-bit high-resolution sound that engulfs your home for rich detailed brilliance that you can rely on. Use the app to set up rooms and control speakers remotely or simply press the Form button on your speaker to add it to the listening session. It's that easy.
Flex uses a 25mm decoupled dome tweeter and a 100mm woven glass-fibre mid-bass driver with 100w amplification that delivers rich warm audio no matter where you choose to listen to your music. With playback possible at 96kHz/24-Bit resolution, you gain twice the fidelity compared to the leading wireless speaker brand. The modern design of the flex with corner-to-corner dispersion offers up superior acoustics in any space with a pure and clean experience guaranteed. And for those who fancy a tweak, the dynamic EQ will allow you to get real-time improvements tailored to you and how you like to enjoy your sound.
Control of your entire Bowers & Wilkins Audio System is at your fingertips with the Bowers & Wilkins Music App available for free on the Apple App Store and Google Play. Easily set up your network settings, create speaker groups, integrate your streaming services with up to 24-bit/96kHz high-resolution support for services such as Tidal and even get personal recommendations for music through Bowers & Wilkins bespoke algorithm that learns your preferences and tailors recommendations around you. With integrated controls on the speaker, a whole host of app controls and Alexa compatibility, you can control Flex your way with streamlined convenience.
