The 706 S3 is an outstanding bookshelf speaker for use in larger spaces. Thanks to its decoupled Carbon Dome tweeter and carefully upgraded crossover, it provides exceptional detail and insight into your music, while its substantial 6.5in Continuum Cone bass/midrange drive unit provides ample scale and extension. Like its 705 S3 sibling, it performs at its best on the optional FS-700 S3 stand.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Optional Speaker Stand: The FS-700 S3 is the perfect match.
- Magnetic Grills: Each model includes magnetic speaker grills.
- Step up from 706S3: Looking for a performance step up? The 705 S3 features our Solid Body Tweeter housing on top of the cabinet for a more holographic sound.

Q: What is the minimum frequency response of the speaker?
A: The minimum frequency response of the speaker is 45 hertz.
Q: How many speakers are included in this pair?
A: This speaker set includes four speakers.
Q: What is the size of the midrange driver?
A: The midrange driver size is 6.5 inches.
Q: What is the weight and dimensions of the speaker?
A: The 700 Series 3 Bookshelf Speaker is 13.58 inches high, 13.15 inches wide, and 7.56 inches deep. It weighs 18.56 pounds.
A: Hello PGANT, You can certainly use these as fronts and rears provided you have the space and stands for them. There would be no issue having them powered by a Denon receiver such as the 3800 or 4800 as well. This would work wonderfully.
A: Hello. The CDA-4D is a custom installation distribution power amplifier, and may not be the best option for your system. It requires you add a pre-amplifier to connect your sources to. A better option would be to go with a Marantz Model 40n or a Marantz M1, as they both fit neatly between your computer and the 706S3s, offer a good set of analog and digital inputs to work with and are easier to operate and set-up given your requirements. Either way, 12, 14 or 16 gauge copper speaker wire of the length you need will be required. We recommend Audioquest for this purpose. For more information, I recommend speaking with a Best Buy Home Audio expert.
Q: Hi Want to confirm price is for 2 speakers - Thanks
A: Best Buy indicates that the price is for a pair of speakers in the description "700 Series 3 Bookshelf Speaker with 1" Tweeter and 6.5" Midbass (Pair) - White."
Q: Are you able to hang them on the wall for rear speakers?
A: Hello, These are able to be used as rear speakers, but we do not design any wall mounts for these speakers and these speakers are meant to sit on a stable surface like the dedicated speaker stands.

HTM72 S3 is the most compact center channel speaker in the 700 Series. It features a Carbon Dome tweeter and twin Continuum cone Mid/Bass drivers. It’s the perfect partner for a home theatre system based around the 704 S3, 706 S3 or 707 S3.
707 S3’s compact, 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.
