Bowers & Wilkins 705 S3 – 2-way Stand-Mount Speakers
The 705 S3 is the flagship stand-mount speaker in Bowers & Wilkins' revamped 700 Series line-up. This uncompromising two-way speaker reveals subtle nuances in music that others miss. Its high-performance features include a solid body Tweeter-on-Top design borrowed from the legendary 800 Series Diamond range. With a combination of advanced driver design, superior components and exquisite build quality the 705 S3’s deliver a performance that belies its relatively small footprint.
Proprietary drivers
The 705 S3’s Carbon Dome tweeter is housed in an all-new Solid Body Tweeter assembly, derived from the flagship Bowers & Wilkins 800 Series Diamond range. The carefully decoupled housing is milled from a single solid block of aluminium to better resist resonance thus ensuring the most accurate, lifelike treble, while the 6.5” Continuum™ cone mid-bass driver provides outstanding depth, detail and precision.
