Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Bowers & Wilkins HTM82 D5?

The Bowers & Wilkins HTM82 D5 is a three-way centre channel speaker in B&W's fifth-generation 800 Series Diamond range, delivering flagship centre channel performance on a smaller scale. It uses a 25mm Diamond dome tweeter, a 5-inch Continuum cone FST midrange, and two 6.5-inch Aerofoil cone bass drivers in a horizontal cabinet, designed to pair with the 803 D5 or 804 D5. The Bowers & Wilkins HTM82 D5 is available at Trutone Electronics in Mississauga, Ontario.

Which speakers does the Bowers & Wilkins HTM82 D5 pair with?

The Bowers & Wilkins HTM82 D5 is designed to pair with the 803 D5 or 804 D5 as the centre channel in a home theatre system, sharing similar driver sizes for a timbre-matched soundstage. Some retailers also list it as compatible with the 805 D5 for systems built around that standmount. This makes the HTM82 D5 a natural centre channel choice for the more compact half of the D5 floorstanding range.

What drivers does the Bowers & Wilkins HTM82 D5 use?

The Bowers & Wilkins HTM82 D5 is a three-way design using a 25mm Diamond dome tweeter, a 130mm (5in) Continuum cone FST midrange, and two 165mm (6.5in) Aerofoil cone bass drivers arranged horizontally. It includes B&W's Anti-Resonance plug, Biomimetic Suspension, Matrix bracing, and Flowport, matching the technology used in the HTM81 D5 at a smaller scale. This gives the HTM82 D5 a frequency response of 45Hz to 28kHz (+/-3dB) and a sensitivity of 89dB.

How does the Bowers & Wilkins HTM82 D5 sound?

The Bowers & Wilkins HTM82 D5 brings flagship centre channel technology, including its Diamond dome tweeter and Continuum FST midrange, into a smaller cabinet suited to the 803 D5 and 804 D5. This delivers dialogue clarity and tonal consistency across the front of a home theatre system without requiring the larger cabinet of the HTM81 D5. Its dual 6.5-inch Aerofoil bass drivers provide solid output for movie soundtracks while keeping the cabinet compact.

What amplifier power does the Bowers & Wilkins HTM82 D5 need?

Bowers & Wilkins recommends 50 to 1000 watts into 8 ohms for the HTM82 D5, with a nominal impedance of 8 ohms and a sensitivity of 89dB. Some retailer listings show a narrower range, so buyers comparing spec sheets may see slightly different figures. Any AV receiver or amplifier capable of driving the 803 D5 or 804 D5 will also be well-matched to the HTM82 D5.

Will the Bowers & Wilkins HTM82 D5 fit on a typical TV stand?

The Bowers & Wilkins HTM82 D5 measures 715mm (28.1in) wide and weighs 26.1kg, making it more compact than the HTM81 D5 and easier to fit on standard TV furniture. Its smaller footprint reflects its 5-inch midrange and 6.5-inch bass drivers scaled down from the HTM81 D5. For setups without suitable furniture, B&W offers the optional FS-HTM D5 floorstand.

How does the Bowers & Wilkins HTM82 D5 compare to the HTM81 D5?

The Bowers & Wilkins HTM82 D5 is the smaller of B&W's two D5 centre channels, using a 5-inch midrange and dual 6.5-inch bass drivers compared to the HTM81 D5's 6-inch midrange and dual 8-inch bass drivers. The HTM82 D5 pairs with the 803 D5 or 804 D5, while the HTM81 D5 is designed for the 801 D5 or 802 D5. Buyers should match the centre channel to their front floorstanders for the best tonal consistency across the soundstage.
