Bowers & Wilkins 706 S3 – 2-way Stand-Mount Speakers
The third generation of the popular Bowers & Wilkins 706 model has been improved even further thanks to the decoupled Carbon Dome tweeter and carefully upgraded crossover, both helping to provide exceptional detail and insight into your music, while the substantial 165mm (6.5in) Continuum Cone bass/midrange drive unit produces impressive scale with excellent bass extension, making the 706 S3’s ideal for use in medium to large spaces.
Proprietary drivers
The 706 S3’s Carbon Dome tweeter was purpose-built for the new 700 Series and it delivers a dramatic improvement over the previous aluminium double dome tweeter with pinpoint imaging and superb detail retrieval. The 6.5” Continuum™ Cone mid-bass driver benefits from technology developed for the flagship 800 Series. The cone’s composite construction helps produce outstanding depth and precision.
