Customer Ratings & Reviews

This B&W center channel speaker was the missing piece for our entertainment center. I thought having 2 towers, 2 subwoofers and a brand new TV would be enough but this center channel added an additional layer. While watching tv, we can now hear some of the smaller more intricate sounds during movies or shows. The setup was extremely easy and the aesthetics really elevate our living space.

After having owned both the little brother to this (B&W HTM72S3) and the 702s2 towers for several years, I realized the center channel wasn't matching the performance of the towers. I stepped up to the HTM71S3 and couldn't be happier. More dynamic, significantly improved soundstage, and dialogue clarity are unmatched. Movies have come to life and subtitles are a thing of the past. The decoupled tweeter and continuum mid-range driver are crisp and clean (not shrill or fatiguing) while the 5.5" drivers provide a solid foundation without sounding anemic or bloated. For those looking for premium center channel, so long as you are willing to pay the hefty price, you have arrived. My only complaint is that I had to be creative about making enough space under the televsion (9.5") as I'm unable to mount the TV to the wall.

I didn’t think it was gonna make a big difference, but I upgraded my center channel to this one and my old one is a Bowers & Wilkins and I gotta tell you this one is much much better. I highly recommend it.

balances out my system perfectly i get announcers for games that I watch thru this while the other speakers thump with the crowd and added sound effects. I love it stand out white really lites up the room to

This is an excellent center channel speaker. The sound is true B&W.

Sold a kidney and bought the 7 series. Movies and music are incredible. I will never leave my house again.

I'm first step into my journey into upgrading my system and I figured this was a good first step. I was apprehensive as most reviews say that B and W's are power hungry and most need a dedicated amp to get the full potential,, It works great with my 5 year old Marantz AV receiver.. Granted I only had a Bose acoustimas until now,,, This center channel has transformed the viewing and listening experience by a mile.. The dialogues in movies are super clear even at low volumes which is great for late night viewing... this goes for listening to music... Again, this is just the center channel! Oh and you will appreciate how beautifully crafted this thing is.. I got the white one and it enhances the look of the room! I will for sure get the BNW 703 s3 towers next,,,

Outstanding sound. Absolutely the most accurate audio I have experienced. Voices sound live. Highly recommend if you have space. this is a large cabinet. Very expensive, but this is bespoke sound quality.

The sound is unbelievable, this speaker is perfect, and the color:white fits in with my decor .

When I bought my 700 series 2 towers, the available 700 middle speaker didn't match. No external tweeter and different speaker set up. I just replaced it with this. I rebalanced my system and the sound for video is spectacular. dialog is much clearer and the overall sound is so much more even across all frequencies. It is clear that this center speaker is designed to work with the series 2, 3, etc towers.

Bowers & Wilkins speakers are incredible! The clarity of sound and depth of tones has transformed our expect allowing a lower volume with greater intensity. The center speaker predominantly serves for speech and the side speakers and in-wall rear speakers add so much depth! The Best Buy team did a beautiful job designing and installing our home theater!

Amazing clarity. This speaker alone breathed new life into a 2007 B&W surround sound. Can’t wait to hear all the matching speakers together. The centre speaker is the primary speaker in a surround sound system. If you’re going to spend more on a speaker it should be the centre.

Amazing sound quality looks great and it goes great with the matching towers

WOW. GREAT SPEAKER. Excellent definition and clarity. The best speaker for the money.

The title says it all, Beautiful soeaker with a low profile so it can sit on a tv cabinet top. Id recommend a high end amplifier to get the best magic out if the speaker

I’m not surprised that this center sounds as amazing as it does. I currently run CM9 and 702S2 with ceiling height as atmos with a small problem of hearing my old CM Center. Now with this beast i can HEAR IT WELL. Thanks for such a quality build

This speaker has made everything clearer. I love it.

This thing is heavy, but worth the upgrade if have the spacd. I upgraded to this from the 600 series and while its a hefty price tag i love the crispness and full range you get from this thing

Absolutely the best center in the range extremely clear dialogue in movies is outstanding
