The Bowers & Wilkins 707 S3 has undergone a major upgrade over the previous S2 version with improved aesthetics and a massive step up in sonic performance. 707 S3’s space friendly design makes it easy to accommodate in smaller spaces, but thanks to its Carbon Dome tweeter, Continuum cone mid-bass and curved baffle, this outstanding loudspeaker provides proof positive than often, size can be deceptive.
