British audio company Bowers & Wilkins has unveiled its latest offering in high-fidelity sound reproduction with the introduction of the Bowers & Wilkins 700 S3 Signature speaker series. Designed as an enhancement to the existing 700 S3 range, the Signature series promises meticulous upgrades in both performance and aesthetics, catering to audiophiles seeking premium audio experiences.
The new 700 S3 Signature lineup consists of three new models: the 702 S3 Signature floorstander, the 705 S3 Signature standmount, and the HTM71 S3 Signature center-channel speaker. Each model has undergone significant refinement to elevate its sonic capabilities to new heights.
One of the key highlights of the Signature series is the introduction of exclusive finishes, Midnight Blue Metallic or Datuk Gloss wood veneer, adding a touch of luxury to the speakers' appearance. These exquisite finishes are complemented by unique Signature logo plates, further emphasizing the exclusivity of the range.
The flagship of the series, the 702 S3 Signature floorstander, boasts a three-way design featuring a Carbon Dome tweeter and Continuum Cone midrange driver. The addition of a protective tweeter grille mesh, derived from Bowers & Wilkins' prestigious 800 Series Signature models, should ensure enhanced durability and performance.
Furthermore, upgrades to the crossover system and speaker terminal posts aim to deliver unparalleled sonic transparency and signal integrity.
Similarly, the 705 S3 Signature standmount speaker includes improvements such as a redesigned tweeter grille mesh and an upgraded crossover system with new capacitors and resistors. The inclusion of an all-new drive-unit suspension for its midrange driver enhances midrange clarity and extends bass response, promising a more immersive listening experience.
For home theater enthusiasts, the HTM71 S3 Signature center-channel speaker delivers an impressive performance with its three-way design and Tweeter-on-Top assembly.
Featuring shared technologies with its floorstanding and stand mount counterparts, including Continuum Cone midrange drivers and upgraded crossover components, the HTM71 S3 Signature ensures seamless integration with other speakers in the Signature series.
