Wonderful !
Too bad that I'm not a big fan of their sound or I would own a pair.
Incredible build quality and engineering.

Brian,
Thanks for sharing - the manufacturing process is really something else, especially with significant automation, be it our gear, our cars or other items that let us live better lives.

I like this kind of "how it's made" video." Very cool!

Brian...thx for the vid. Build quality is impressive for sure. Very few "high-end" companies have similar scale to B&W and hence the ability to invest in the same type of automation and quality control gear.

Next best thing to an actual tour to see it in person. Actually maybe even better on video.
As a B&W owner and long time fan, I found this fascinating. Thanks for sharing.

Jimmy
