Well-known UK audio brand Bowers & Wilkins is attending
the WOMAD festival in Wiltshire this year, and bringing its Sound System
festival speaker along with it. The four-stack speaker
system is, B&W says, the first of its kind to deliver studio-quality
sound to a live audience.
It featured at the Primavera festival in
Barcelona last month and proved a bit of a hit with festival goers. Also,
for the first time since its inception, the Bowers & Wilkins online
community Society of Sound will take physical form. The community will
be putting on talks, exclusive playbacks and live performances at the
festival.
“Our presence at WOMAD allows festival-goers
the opportunity to revolutionise their live music listening experience,
while also challenging them to think about the importance of sound
through various workshops, demos and interactive talks” said B&W
brand director Danny Haikin.
“Sound System was fantastic – you could hear every detail, every beat, it was beautiful” said Primavera curator DJ Fra.
