702 S3 is our 700 Series flagship: a state-of-the-art floorstanding speaker that defines standards for performance in its class. Its Carbon Dome tweeter is housed in a Solid Body Tweeter assembly, derived from 800 Series Diamond. That ensures even more realistic treble, while its decoupled midrange assembly, enhanced here with our revolutionary Biomimetic Suspension, provides outstanding midrange transparency and openness. And thanks to its downward-firing port configuration and its trio of Aerofoil Profile bass cones, 702 S3 can deliver bass that’s both profoundly deep and endlessly articulate. If you want the best in the series, this is it.
- 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.

Q: How many bass drivers does the speaker have?
A: This speaker has three 6.5" bass drivers.
Q: What is the maximum frequency response of the speaker?
A: The maximum frequency response of the speaker is 33 kilohertz.
Q: What is the weight and dimensions of the speaker?
A: The speaker weighs 73.78 pounds and measures 11.42 inches deep, 16.14 inches wide, and 44.8 inches tall.
Q: What is the warranty on the speaker?
A: The manufacturer's warranty for parts and labor on this speaker is five years.
A: We have used the MODEL30 with 702S3 and the amplifier has plenty of power.
Q: What the low frequency response of this model?
A: Hello Mike, The 702 S3 offers a low-frequency extension down to 28Hz (-6dB). While is can go pretty low, we still recommend pairing it with a subwoofer for a fuller sound but these towers can stand great on their own.
Q: Does this one pair perfect with Marantz PM6004 Integrated Amplifier?
A: Hello Hung. The PM6004 integrated amplifier can drive the 702 S3 speakers if you have a smaller room space and your volume level isn't too spirited. Otherwise, I would suggest something like a Marantz Model 40n or a Model 30 if you really want to hear what the 702 S3 speakers can do.
A: Yes no issues with your rotel driving these

Excellent speakers!!
Didn't realize what I was missing. I've been using speakers from the 1960s and they were okay then. I had a channel go out in my Onkyo AVR so I finally decided to upgrade my system. I already had a nice turntable (a late 60s AR) along with a decent CD player. But, I also had a whole lot of old vinyl that I really wanted to listen to on a good system, so I paired these with the Marantz Cinema 40 and I could not be happier. The sound, even without a subwoofer, is quite good with a nice (but not huge) low end. Running the TV through them (the Marantz automatically starts up when the TV is turned on) is incredible. The highs and middles are incredibly clean and I can now hear the TV really well without cranking it up - a pet peeve of my wife's. Even though these have a hefty price tag, I am really pleased that I finally spent the money to get high quality sound! I highly recommend these even with the price tag.

Pride of ownership
Beautifully minimalist, with subtle style touches that tie in some classic B&W design language. Airy and spacious sound. Light and dextrous. Every finish looks spectacular. A striking "heirloom" product.
