The Bowers & Wilkins AM-1 (Architectural Monitor) are passive two-way wall-mounted speakers (All-Weather Architectural Speakers), specially designed to deliver high-fidelity Hi-Fi sound both indoors and outdoors. They are built with a durable synthetic-material cabinet and an aluminium grille, offering resistance to moisture, ultraviolet (UV) radiation, and extreme weather conditions. They feature a 5-inch (130 mm) bass/midrange driver with a woven glass fibre cone and a 1-inch (25 mm) aluminium tweeter with a Nautilus tube. To enhance bass response without using a port, they incorporate a rear Auxiliary Bass Radiator (ABR). They come with a steel wall bracket featuring an integrated cable management system and 220-degree rotation.

Acoustic Architecture & Glass Fibre & Nautilus Drivers
The Bowers & Wilkins AM-1 features a 5-inch (130 mm) mid/bass driver with a woven glass-fibre cone, which offers high stiffness and low mass for clear vocal reproduction. High frequencies are handled by a 1-inch (25 mm) aluminium tweeter featuring the patented Nautilus tapered tube technology, which absorbs unwanted sound radiating from the rear of the dome, delivering clear, detailed treble up to 50 kHz.
Auxiliary Bass Radiator (ABR) & Waterproof Design
To achieve deep bass response down to 46Hz without the vulnerabilities of traditional Bass-Reflex ports in outdoor environments, the AM-1 uses a rear-mounted Auxiliary Bass Radiator (ABR). This design keeps the cabinet completely sealed and protected from water, dust, and moisture, while ensuring compact, controlled bass.
Mounting System, Internal Wiring & Weather Resistance
The speaker features a durable construction made of reinforced synthetic material and an aluminum grille, with high resistance to UV radiation and temperature fluctuations. The included wall bracket incorporates the EasyFit wiring system, where the cables connect directly to the bracket and the audio connection to the speaker is made automatically when it is mounted. The bracket allows horizontal or vertical installation and can rotate up to 220 degrees.
