Bowers & Wilkins 705 S3 Signature B/Shelf (pair)
705 S3 is the stand-mount 700 Series model for listeners who want a compact speaker with the range’s most distinctive technology. It is small enough for a carefully arranged room, but it is designed to be listened to rather than simply tucked away.
The Carbon Dome tweeter sits in a Solid Body Tweeter-on-Top enclosure, while the Continuum cone bass/midrange driver is housed in a separate pod on the curved baffle. This helps the speaker present fine detail without losing the body of voices and instruments.
Use the dedicated FS-700 S3 stands if you want the intended height and a clean cable route.
