 The BW-1 is a dedicated BassDirect speaker designed for front wall placement in 2+2 systems. When placing the flat designed cabinet against the front wall, the direct sound as well as wall and floor reflections will arrive simultaneously at the listening position - resulting in unsurpassed attack and precision. It's the perfect match for the Lyngdorf DP-1 - or any other main speaker.
Despite the very flat design you might still think that the BW-1 is the typical subwoofer - we guarantee it is much more. With its incredible precision, dynamics and speed this BassDirect speaker is specifically designed to work in active 2+2 systems. The flat design was made in order to load optimally to the room, as well as blending in to a discreet position, thus offering new possibilities in speaker arrangement and design. The BW-1 has been designed for placement along the front walls of your room making it possible to design active 2+2 systems e.g. with the DP-1s. Any speaker setup - from smaller compact systems to large floorstanders - will greatly benefit from adding a pair of BW-1's.
The BW-1 must be operated by means of crossover and equalization controls present in the DSP section of the fully digital Lyngdorf amplifiers and room processors - do so and a stunning experience awaits you with crossover frequencies at 300Hz, freeing up the power handling of the main speakers.
And adding the Lyngdorf RoomPerfect technology to your system will elevate the performance even further.
With its piano finish the BW-1 blends in perfectly in any environment; - ask your dealer for a demonstration of a 2+2 system - you are in for an ”ear opening” experience!
 A conventional subwoofer is only capable of reproducing the deepest bass - below say 120Hz - hence the name subwoofer.
When using the Lyngdorf BW-1 BassDirect speaker you typically cross over to the main speakers as high as 300Hz!

The compact cabinet is shaped to be placed right against a wall. The shape also ensures that all surfaces of the cabinet are as small as possible. Combining this with the 22mm thick MDF board used for building the cabinet and the 34mm MDF board for the front baffle ensures an extremely rigid and vibration-free construction.

The challenge when developing the woofer for the BW-1 was the compact size of this product. Due to the flat design the internal cabinet volume is 13 litres only! Not a lot if you require deep, firm bass and lots of it.
Drivers like this are not sold off the shelf. Custom made units are required.
The 10in BW-1 woofer features a massive ”motor” consisting of a 86oz magnet and a Ø50mm/2in voice coil.

Complete Lyngdorf System – CD-1, TDAI-2200 w. RoomPerfect, SDA-2175, DP-1, BW-1
Lyd & Bilde (Sound & Picture), Norway
“Lyngdorf gives you a taste of the sound of the future with the RoomPerfect system – a music system that really plays in tune with the listening room and, under optimum conditions, can match twice as expensive systems.”
“The dipole loudspeakers DP-1 have a quite special ability to disappear within the sound stage and leave a crystal clear midrange that brings out even minute details in the sound mix. The tweeter belongs to the fine-grained variety that does not stand out too much, unless required to, and it never becomes unpleasant to listen to.”
“Never before have I experienced such a light and fast, but still utterly solid and powerful bass in my living room as with the room corrected BW-1 subwoofers. The bass range is totally free of booms, resonances and other undesired effects that can mask the tones from a double bass and other instruments. And they go deep enough to reproduce the lowest tones from a church organ without problems.”
