Steinway Lyngdorf extends its custom installation portfolio with the new high-performance in-wall woofer BWS-210

Steinway Lyngdorf launches the BWS-210, a high-performance in-wall woofer specifically made for Steinway & Sons speaker installations requiring the most shallow woofer solution. The BWS-210 adds to the BWS-110 launched last year and was designed to offer an in-wall woofer with an even higher dynamic range and SPL.

The BWS-210 is the brand’s seventh woofer model, a portfolio ranging from stackable installation woofers to extraordinary in-room woofers featuring the trademark high-gloss piano lacquer.

Precise, punchy and powerful bass

BWS-210 stands for Boundary Woofer Shallow, incorporating two 10-inch bass drivers. The model is designed as a high-performance in-wall woofer for custom installations that require the most shallow woofer solution yet with the best bass performance. The BWS-210 utilizes a patented high-excursion shallow woofer design, customized for Steinway Lyngdorf and based on an innovative voice-coil / cone geometry and suspension which allows the highest excursion from the most space-saving construction. A four-layer voice coil, ultra-rigid dual aluminum cone, a very powerful neodymium magnet and an extremely rigid cast aluminum basket provide impressive bass performance, matching the renowned sound quality of Steinway & Sons speakers.

 Perfectly fits 6 inch / 15 cm wall cavities

The rigid and sealed enclosure is easy to integrate and perfectly fits 6 inch / 15 cm cavity walls, while the extended height provides the large inner cabinet volume required for remarkable bass extension. In combination with the two very powerful 10-inch bass drivers, the BWS-210 delivers an outstanding bass performance from a slim design. It is the ideal solution for any media room and home cinema with no space for placing woofers in the room. It comes with a paintable, magnetically held grill to cover the woofer front.

Integrated System Approach for the best sound performance in any room

As with every Steinway & Sons loudspeaker, the BWS-210 is part of the company’s Integrated System Approach, ensuring all parts of the system, from the speaker to the woofers to the powerful digital amplifiers and the stereo or surround processors, work perfectly together as one. Steinway Lyngdorf’s incorporated RoomPerfectTM technology acoustically calibrates the speaker and woofer performance to the room acoustics, while the unique Bass Management achieves the very best sound integration between the chosen Steinway & Sons speakers and woofers. This ensures the best sound experience for every customer, in any room and any speaker layout.

The BWS-210 production will start in March 2025 at Steinway Lyngdorf in Skive, Denmark.

Steinway Lyngdorf launches soundbar

Steinway Lyngdorf announces the launch of the first Steinway & Sons soundbar, the Model S Soundbar. The Steinway & Sons Model S Soundbar redefines the audio performance of a soundbar. It delivers extraordinary clarity, outstanding musicality, and exceptionally powerful bass, combined with the signature design, materials, and craftsmanship of the world’s finest piano manufacturer, Steinway & Sons. The Model S Soundbar is driven by incredibly powerful digital amplifiers, while the innovative RoomPerfect™ technology calibrates it for any room and placement.

The world’s largest and most powerful soundbar

The Model S Soundbar is the world’s largest and most powerful soundbar, a high-performance design with two powerful woofers, three Air Motion Transformer tweeters, and three midrange drivers for extraordinary clarity and details, all powered by four digital amplifiers with a combined 1.600 watt. The extremely rigid and heavy enclosure is made from machined solid aluminum front and back panels, housing a low-resonance MDF frame with five acoustically separated chambers inside. This provides the ideal foundation for the loudspeaker drivers and ensures the purest sound from the highest to the lowest notes – even when playing louder.

Exceptional loudspeaker technology

The Air Motion Transformer tweeters with Kapton foil and the midrange drivers with anodized aluminum cones are powered by very strong neodymium magnets. The left-center-right configuration allows a very stable center soundstage and imaging, either in pure stereo or with center channel upmixing / multichannel downmixing in the digital Steinway & Sons processor. The two 10’’ woofers are a high-excursion design with a four-layer voice coil, anodized aluminum cone, very powerful neodymium magnet, and an ultra-rigid cast aluminum basket. The result is an exceptional bass performance, unheard of with common soundbars.

Signature Steinway & Sons design

The Model S Soundbar is one of the finest soundbar designs on the market. The black front is complemented by signature gold-plated tweeter frames and bronze-gold lacquered sides with black strings, resembling the piano and musical instruments. Every Model S Soundbar is assembled and finished by hand in Skive, Denmark, made to the same quality standards as a Steinway & Sons piano and giving this soundbar its unmistakable appearance and longevity. Customized lacquers and finishes are available on request.

Integrated system with digital amplifiers and room calibration

As with every Steinway & Sons loudspeaker, the Model S Soundbar is part of the company’s Integrated System Approach, ensuring all parts of the system, from the speaker itself to the external Steinway & Sons stereo or surround processors and powerful digital amplifiers, work perfectly together as one. Steinway Lyngdorf’s RoomPerfect™ technology is the finishing touch for each system. RoomPerfect™ acoustically calibrates the Soundbar to the room acoustics, always ensuring the very best sound experience for every customer, in any room and any speaker placement.

Availability

The new Steinway & Sons Model S Soundbar will be available end of Q3 2024. System prices depend on the choice of stereo or surround processor.

Statements from the team

“The new soundbar is not meant to be of lesser quality or a compromise on sound, as many other soundbar solutions are. I think you will see that the size and the look signals that this is not a compromise but rather meant for a smaller setup, with the same Steinway Lyngdorf quality. This is for the installations where our other products do not fit, but you still want a Steinway product with your TV.” Thomas Birkelund, CEO and CTO at Steinway Lyngdorf

“Tapping into new customer segments was the first thing our sales channel partners commented when they experienced our initial soundbar concept showcased at the ISE 2024. These segments desire the absolute ultimate system for their TV sound, while also seeking a beautifully integrated sound solution with no freestanding speakers or woofers. With our Model S Soundbar, we have achieved just that: bringing the sound quality of our premium Steinway Lyngdorf systems into a single piece.” Anker Haldan, CCO at Steinway Lyngdorf

“With the Steinway & Sons Model S Soundbar, we are redefining what is possible from the audio performance of a soundbar. It is an outstanding speaker for on-wall or furniture placement, with or without a TV, that takes the intensity and energy of music and movie soundtracks seriously. With the immaculate lacquering and signature Steinway & Sons details, it is designed like no other soundbar.” Roland Hoffmann, Product Marketing Director at Steinway Lyngdorf

Revolutionizing Superyacht Audio: The Seamless Integration of the Marine Speaker

In a groundbreaking collaboration with Future Automation, Steinway Lyngdorf set out to elevate the luxury superyacht experience by integrating high-performance marine speakers in an unprecedented manner. The ambition was to seamlessly merge state-of-the-art audio technology with the sophisticated design of a luxury superyacht, resulting in the Steinway & Sons Marine Speaker that hinge out of the deck itself.

The mechanism is designed to safely store the speakers inside the deck of a yacht when not in use to shield them during adverse weather on open-sea voyages. The mechanism is also loadbearing to allow users to stand on or walk over the mechanism in both the open and closed positions. Hinging the Marine Speaker reduces the in-ground depth requirements, which is critical when vertical space is limited between the floors of a luxury superyacht.

Achieving this elegant and smooth motion of the speakers emerging from the deck is made possible through our partnership with Future Automation, leveraging their exclusive servo-driven technology. This show-stopping movement is a truly unique way to wow clients seeking the finest audio integration for their superyachts.
