"B&W" ?

I've seen several threads titled something related to "B&W". I am slow on the draw, but is this how B&W speakers are now referred to as?

That's all. Thanks.

The encoding prevents malicious things from happening on a server. When it’s retrieved from a database and displayed in a browser sometimes it’s not decoded to the & character and you get the encoded version. Probably more info than you cared to know.
