Experience the 800 D5 – listening sessions and livestream on November 6, 2026, at Fidelity

FIDELITY × BOWERS & WILKINS · FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 2026

The new 800 D5 Series. With us for one day.

The 800 Series has been the flagship of Bowers & Wilkins for decades – and now it is available in a new generation: the 800 D5. On Friday, November 6, we are bringing the entire new series to us in Rellingen and inviting you to hear it for yourself.

From 12 to 6 p.m., you can stop by without registration and listen in our listening rooms for as long as you like. In addition, there will be three moderated listening sessions with the 801 D5, the new flagship. You only need to register for these, as places are limited.

Admission is free.

The entire D5 Series, your music

From 12 to 6 p.m., the listening rooms will feature the 802 D5, 803 D5, 804 D5, and 805 D5, as well as selected models from the 700 Series.

You can stop by anytime, move between the rooms, and compare the models directly – from compact speakers to large floorstanding speakers.

Our tip: Bring your favorite music as a playlist, and we will play it via streaming. With songs you know well, you will hear the differences most clearly.

02 · IN ADDITION · REGISTRATION REQUIRED

Listening sessions with the 801 D5

At 12, 2 p.m. and 4 p.m., we will present the new flagship in our large high-end listening room – with selected high-end electronics and under conditions rarely experienced.

The sessions will be moderated: You will get background information on the new generation, hear the 801 D5 with carefully selected music, and have time for your questions.

Because the room has limited space, you need a free registration for the sessions.
