Discover the power and precision of the Bowers & Wilkins 706 S3 Stand Mount Speakers—an exceptional choice for audiophiles seeking a high-performance speaker that can fill even larger rooms with vibrant, detailed sound. The 706 S3 combines the advanced acoustic technologies of Bowers & Wilkins’ renowned 700 Series with a sleek, versatile design, making it an ideal fit for home audio setups where space and sound quality are equally important.
One of the defining features of the 706 S3 is its decoupled Carbon Dome tweeter, a hallmark innovation in Bowers & Wilkins’ 700 Series. The Carbon Dome design significantly improves upon traditional aluminium tweeters, pushing the breakup threshold up to an impressive 47kHz. This allows the 706 S3 to deliver exceptionally clear and detailed high frequencies, ensuring an immersive listening experience that captures the most intricate details of your music. To further enhance high-frequency performance, the tweeter is housed in Bowers & Wilkins’ iconic Solid Body Tweeter-on-Top housing. This elongated design incorporates an advanced tube-loading system that creates an open, natural sound, while the single aluminium block construction minimizes unwanted resonance, resulting in precise imaging and crystal-clear sound.
At the heart of the 706 S3’s exceptional midrange and bass capabilities lies the Continuum™ cone driver, purpose-built to deliver both scale and extension. This composite driver avoids the sudden transitions in behavior often found in conventional cone materials, leading to a smoother, more natural sound profile. The result is a speaker that can faithfully reproduce vocals and instruments with an impressive level of transparency, creating a listening experience that feels authentic and lifelike. With a substantial 6.5-inch bass/midrange driver, the 706 S3 is equally at home in larger rooms, delivering full-bodied sound with impactful bass and rich midrange tones.
The 706 S3’s design as a 2-way vented-box system allows it to perform well across a broad frequency range, from 45Hz to 33kHz, with a frequency response of 50Hz – 28kHz. This configuration balances low-end depth with midrange and high-frequency clarity, making it a versatile option for a wide variety of music genres. Its sensitivity rating of 88dB and nominal impedance of 8Ω (minimum 3.7Ω) allow the speaker to work seamlessly with a wide range of amplifiers, with a recommended power range of 30W – 120W, ensuring flexibility for both audiophiles and casual listeners alike.
The 706 S3 Stand Mount Speaker is also designed with practicality in mind. Measuring 345mm in height, 192mm in width, and 297mm in depth, with a total depth of 334mm when including the grille and terminals, it offers a substantial presence without overwhelming your space. The sleek and modern design, coupled with Bowers & Wilkins’ signature attention to detail, makes these speakers an elegant addition to any listening room.
For those interested in exploring high-quality sound on a larger scale, the Bowers & Wilkins 706 S3 Stand Mount Speakers offer a powerful solution in a refined package. To experience the clarity, detail, and immersive sound that these speakers provide, we invite you to visit the Len Wallis Audio showroom. Our team will be happy to give you a demonstration of the 706 S3 and help you discover the incredible audio quality they bring to any space.
