Spotted on a trashy HBO TV series…
and a bonus point if you can name the trashy TV series
OMA Minis?
Yep… looks likely.
Not sure what the show is, but that looks like a Jacob Jensen phone on the wall
Bowers & Wilkins used to have something that looked similar, but much larger, with a curved electrostatic(?) panel on top. Was it called the 801?
No it was called the Model 70 or later the DM70. This was the “continental” version. There was also a boxy “standard” version.
I had these back in the day, nearly fifty years ago.
Thanks, David, how weird to see a picture of that again, after all these years.
Very futuristic, did they only come (as I remember) with a white finish for the main section?
I imagine that that lower section had a bass/midrange device. Was the top piece electrostatic?
The black metal stand at the bottom looks very similar to one that I had for QUAD ESL63s many years ago, made by a company called Stand And Deliver (I kid you not!).
No actually they also came with a wood veneer finish. Mine were white but my father had a similar pair finished in rosewood.
Yes the bass unit was a 15 inch conventional driver and the mid/top was all handled by the electrostatic unit above.
