Floorstanding speakers Bowers & Wilkins 702 S3 Gloss Black
The 3-way Bowers & Wilkins 702 S3 is the flagship of the new 700 S3 series and the most advanced floorstanding speaker system that sets a new level of performance in its class. Its carbon dome tweeter is housed in an all-new, massive housing derived from the 800 Diamond series. This delivers even more realistic high frequencies, while the mechanically decoupled midrange driver, reinforced by the revolutionary bionic suspension, delivers outstanding midrange clarity and openness.

Thanks to a new down-firing bass reflex port configuration and three Aerofoil bass cones, the 702 S3 is capable of delivering bass that is both incredibly deep and incredibly clear. If you want the best, this is exactly what you need. Carbon dome tweeters are specially designed for the 700 series. A dramatic improvement over the aluminum double dome HF cone, they increase the first resonance frequency to 47 kHz, delivering highly accurate and detailed sound imaging. The longer load tube results in an even freer, more open sound at high frequencies. The carefully decoupled mechanical body is milled from a solid block of aluminum to better withstand resonances. First used in the 800 Series Diamond, the bionic centering plate suspension revolutionizes the performance of the 700 Series midrange cone. It significantly reduces unwanted air pressure and sound coloration associated with a traditional fabric centering washer.
Result? Incredible midrange transparency you didn't expect. Thanks to its composite construction, the Continuum™ cone avoids abrupt changes in behavior that can degrade the sound of conventional speakers. The result is a more open, neutral performance that conveys voices and instruments with great precision and transparency. All floorstanding speakers in the new 700 Series use mechanical midrange decoupling, which improves midrange clarity and openness. Designed using advanced computer modeling techniques, the Aerofoil™ bass driver cone has variable thickness, providing rigidity and strength where it's needed most. The new curved front panel and separate driver housings significantly reduce sound coloration, delivering clearer, more immersive sound.
Precision Sound
The 700 Series uses many of the most advanced technologies borrowed from our award-winning Diamond 800 Series to deliver class-leading audio quality.
HF diffuser in a massive housing
The 700 Series uses the latest generation of the iconic HF cone-overhead with an elongated, massive one-piece body. The longer load tube results in an even freer, more open sound at high frequencies. The carefully decoupled mechanical body is milled from a solid block of aluminum to better withstand resonances.
Carbon dome HF diffuser
The carbon dome tweeter is specially designed for the 700 series. A dramatic improvement over the aluminum double dome HF cone, it increases the first resonance frequency to 47 kHz, delivering highly accurate and detailed sound imaging.
Mechanical decoupling of the midrange speaker
All 3-way speakers in the new 700 Series feature a dedicated midrange driver using four key Bowers & Wilkins technologies: Continuum cone, FST surround, bionic centering plate suspension and vibration decoupling to ensure minimal interference from bass drivers.
Bionic gimbal
Sometimes, to make a big change, you need to think outside the box. The transition from our renowned yellow aramid fiber midrange cones to Continuum technology has resulted in significant improvements in midrange performance. Now we turn our attention to another important element: the fabric centering washer. The new bionic surround revolutionizes its performance by significantly reducing unwanted air pressure and sound coloration associated with a traditional fabric centering washer. Result? Incredible midrange transparency you never thought possible.
Continuum™ Diffuser
Thanks to its composite construction, the Continuum™ cone avoids the sudden changes in behavior that can degrade the sound of conventional speakers. The result is a more open, neutral performance that conveys voices and instruments with great precision and transparency.
Curved front panel
The new 700 series features a curved front panel for the first time. This allows the mid- and low-frequency drivers to be placed in separate “capsules” that protrude from it. Combined with bent construction, this new approach, borrowed from the 800 Diamond series, reduces the sound contribution of the cabinet itself, creating a cleaner, more open and exciting sound.
Aerofoil™ profile of bass driver cones
Designed using advanced computer modeling techniques, the Aerofoil™ bass driver cone has variable thickness, providing rigidity and strength where it's needed most. The result: deep and dynamic bass.
Thoughtful design
With its slender proportions, premium details and gracefully curved body shape, as well as an all-new mocha finish, the new 700 Series exudes beauty and effortless elegance. The 700 Series is available in four elegant finishes: Mocha, Satin White, Gloss Black
