Celebrating the unique 45-year relationship between Bowers & Wilkins and Abbey Road, the 801 Abbey Road Limited Edition takes the 801 D4 Signature and reframes it in homage to the home of music making.

Where music history is made

For almost a century, Abbey Road has witnessed the creation of some of the world’s most celebrated songs, albums, films and game scores by the most revered artists and composers.

The start of something special

In 1979, John Bowers and his team developed the first 801 – a loudspeaker crafted for unrivalled accuracy. The engineers at Abbey Road immediately understood its value and adopted it as their monitor of choice full-time.

45 years of iconic sound

Over the last 45 years, successive generations of 800 Series loudspeakers have graced Abbey Road’s control rooms and contributed to the endlessly iconic music and film scores recorded there.

Celebrating a timeless legacy

The 801 Abbey Road Limited Edition is a celebration of the unique 45-year relationship between Bowers & Wilkins and Abbey Road. It takes the best loudspeaker Bowers & Wilkins currently manufactures and reframes it in homage to the home of music making.

Abbey Road-inspired finish

Directly inspired by the famous studio, the 801 Abbey Road Limited Edition boasts a carefully crafted Vintage Walnut cabinet, complemented by a bespoke red Leather by Connolly trim.

801 D4 Signature

The 801 D4 Signature features meticulously evolved technology, carefully crafted design, and unique finishes that culminate in the pinnacle of performance. This is Bowers & Wilkins' flagship loudspeaker, perfected.

A benchmark in performance

Today, the latest incarnation of the 801, the 801 D4, remains the benchmark by which other high-performance loudspeakers are judged. It’s the ultimate expression of True Sound, and ideally suited to its role as the loudspeaker of choice for Abbey Road.
