703 S3 now features our iconic Tweeter-on-Top configuration, transforming its ability to render detail and space. That breakthrough, plus its decoupled FST Continuum cone midrange driver– enhanced by the addition of our revolutionary Biomimetic Suspension – combine to make 703 S3 an exceptional loudspeaker. Its twin Aerofoil Profile bass drivers mean it can fill even the largest rooms with full bodied, realistic sound.
- Carbon Dome Tweeter: Carbon Dome tweeters deliver a dramatic improvementon the aluminium double dome tweeter, raising the breakup threshold to 47kHz, for pinpoint imaging accuracy and detail. The closest performance to our Diamond Dome Tweeters.
- Solid Body Tweeter: Our redesigned Solid Body Tweeter-on-Top housing. A more elongated form incorporates a longer tubeloading system to produce an even more free and open sound. The decoupled housing is milled from a single solid block of aluminium to better resist resonance.
- Continuum Cone: Continuum is a woven composite that blends control with flexibility. The result is breathtaking clarity. Hear voices, guitars and bass instruments with precision and transparency.
- Biomimetic Suspension: Biomimetic Suspension revolutionises midrange cone performance by greatly reducing the unwanted air pressure and coloration that a conventional fabric spider can generate. The result? Midrange transparency you wouldn’t believe possible.
- Decoupled Midrange: The Continuum midrange driver is mounted on a shock absorber, ensuring minimal interference from the operation of the loudspeaker’s bass drivers. Less noise means greater clarity.
- Aerofoil Bass: Advanced computer modeling carbon fiber and a syntactic core are used to produce a cone with maximum stiffness where it’s needed most. This optimised shape means the cone displays pistonic behaviour further up the audible range, producing precise, controlled and utterly lifelike bass.
- Curved Baffle: This allows the midrange and bass drivers to be located in individual housings that sit proud of the speaker baffle. When combined with the curvature of the structure, this approach reduces the audible impact of the cabinet, creating a cleaner, more open and more immersive sound.
- Finishes: This model is available in Gloss Black, Mocha and Satin White.
- Magnetic Grills: Each model includes magnetic speaker grills.
- Step up from 703S3: Looking for a performance step up? The 702 S3 adds a third bass driver for increased power, weight and output. The entire cabinet sits on an integral plinth with a downward firing port for greater bass extension.

703S3
I got these 70% off at best buy. That being said these speakers are amazing. Finding the right speakers can be hard given the preferences of different people. Ive used Klipsch, sony, bose, and JBL. The 703S3 models have been the least fatiguing speakers Ive heard that arent electrostats (a whole other beast). I used a test room for hours with Dyno, Logans, and KEF. To my ears, B&W were simply the best. Movies were immersive, old games were a new experience, music lowered my stress, I can't recommend these speakers enough. I did pair these up to a Marantz cinema 70. Trust me when I say they're loud enough for your house even with 50 watt channels. If you can fork over a little extra Id recommend a Cinema 50 110w model. If you can afford a lot more, go with Arcam and....its another realm for "enthusiasts". Ill admit a cheaper alternative would be the klipsch 8000f set. Its not as good....but its close.
