Bowers & Wilkins CWM362 2-Way In-Wall System Review: A Hidden Gem for Audiophiles

As an audiophile reviewer at The Audio Tailor, I'm thrilled to present our Bowers & Wilkins CWM362 2-Way In-Wall System review. This remarkable product exemplifies B&W's commitment to delivering exceptional sound quality in a discreet, elegant package. Whether you're a seasoned audiophile or just beginning your journey into high-fidelity audio, the CWM362 offers an enticing blend of performance and versatility that's hard to resist.

Uncompromising Sound in a Sleek Package

The Bowers & Wilkins CWM362 2-Way In-Wall System is a testament to B&W's engineering prowess. Featuring a 160mm Polypropylene cone bass/midrange driver and a 25mm soft dome tweeter, this system delivers a wide frequency response from 50Hz to 30kHz. The result is a rich, detailed soundstage that brings your music and movies to life with stunning clarity.

What sets the CWM362 apart is its ability to deliver this level of performance in a slim, unobtrusive package. The minimal-width border design allows these speakers to blend seamlessly into your décor, making them an ideal choice for those who want great sound without compromising their interior aesthetics.

Engineered for Challenging Environments

One of the most impressive aspects of the CWM362 is its resilience in demanding environments. Traditionally, high-humidity areas like bathrooms and indoor pool rooms have been off-limits for high-quality audio systems. However, B&W has engineered the CWM362 to thrive in these conditions, opening up new possibilities for whole-home audio solutions.

This durability doesn't come at the cost of performance. With a sensitivity of 89dB and power handling of up to 80W, the CWM362 can fill even large spaces with rich, detailed sound. Whether you're enjoying a relaxing bath or hosting a pool party, these speakers ensure you never have to compromise on audio quality.

Versatility Meets Value

While the CWM362 is positioned as an entry-level offering in B&W's custom installation range, it punches well above its weight class in terms of performance. This makes it an excellent choice for a wide range of applications, from creating a discreet stereo setup in your living room to building a comprehensive whole-home audio system.

The CWM362 is sold in pairs, allowing you to easily create a stereo setup or expand to a multi-channel system. For those looking to take their audio experience to the next level, we recommend speaking with our team at The Audio Tailor. Our experts can guide you through the process of designing a custom audio solution that perfectly fits your space and needs.
