Trigger Your Senses with Floor-Standing Speakers That Sound and Look Like Luxury: Bowers & Wilkins 702 S3 Signature Does Justice to the Emotionalism, and Detail of the Music You Love

You only live once. The Bowers & Wilkins 702 S3 Signature floor-standing speakers exist to fill your days with as much unforgettably rendered music as you can imagine. Featuring a new Mundorf EVO silver gold oil capacitor with Angelique wire lead-outs for the high-frequency driver; new Bevenbi MPAZ-E polypropylene capacitors with zinc foil for the midrange; new air-core inductors for low-frequency units; upgraded poles on the motor systems with larger venting and lower inductance; and reconfigured bypass capacitors located in series with each other on each board, 702 S3 Signature surpasses even its esteemed 702 S3 sibling in all critical areas.

Visually finished to perfection with multiple coats of high-grade paint or lacquer (depending on your choice of Midnight Blue Metallic paint or Datuk Gloss veneer) and trimmed with gold-colored bright detailing, 702 S3 Signature incorporates a new, more open tweeter grille mesh borrowed from the 800 Series Signature. If supercars had a loudspeaker equivalent, this could very well be it. 

Per Bowers & Wilkins tradition, architecture matters. The distinguished, solid-body tweeter-on-top design on 702 S3 Signature helps transform the three-way floor-stander into a highly resolved, refined, and revealing high-end audio instrument. On intimate terms with accuracy, detail, definition, transparency, and purity, the full-range 702 S3 Signature comes loaded with proprietary technology and cutting-edge features borrowed from the flagship 800 Series Diamond. Inspired by recording studios, designed for your room, and tuned through thousands of hours of listening sessions, it excels with every type of music.  

Measuring 44.8 x 11.4 x 16.1 inches (HWD) and claiming an easy-to-drive 90dB sensitivity, 702 S3 Signature will enhance your relationship and emotional connection to any type of music. You'll hear new instruments you never noticed, sense airiness that was previously congested, revel at the large dimensions of the soundstages, identify specific tones, and feel the thrilling power of albums that connect with your soul. Several across-the-board upgrades — Tweeter-on-Top housing whose elongated form incorporates a tube-loading system for enhanced highs; narrower cabinets; curved baffles; various improvements to the motors, chassis, and terminal trays — further place the 73.8-pound 702 S3 Signature on its own platform. 

Though the innovative tweeter lends obvious visual and conversation-starting appeal, it serves practical purposes that enhance the enjoyment, involvement, and realism of your listening experiences. Milled from a solid block of aluminum, the housing creates an acoustically optimized casing that proves supremely inert and resistant to resonances. The one-inch Decoupled Carbon Dome tweeter itself raises the breakup threshold to 47kHz for pinpoint imaging, sharpness, and accuracy. Beneath, a six-inch Decoupled Continuum cone Fixed Suspension Transducer (FST) midrange driver helps account for the speaker’s exceptional openness, articulation, and control. Equipped with Biomimetic Suspension and midrange decoupling, it resists distortion, vibration, and interference.

When it comes to low-frequency depth and grand dynamics, a trio of stiff, rigid 6.5-inch Aerofoil Profile bass cones do the heavy lifting. Another Bowers & Wilkins hallmark — a trademarked, rear-firing Flowport — reduces friction and improves efficiency. Want to tweak the bass responsiveness? Just insert the supplied two-piece foam plug into the rear-firing port. In this way, 702 S3 Signature adapts to any room environment. Removable magnetic grilles, dual binding-post terminals, rubber feet and spikes, and a five-year manufacturer warranty round out a loudspeaker that Bowers & Wilkins guarantees will deliver goosebumps.
