Bowers & Wilkins - 700 Series 2-way Bookshelf Speaker w/5" midbass (pair) - Rosenut

Bowers and Wilkins 707 s2 used in a 2.1 setup for music listening in a small to medium sized room—they’re fantastic. Build quality is premium. It’s a heavy speaker for its compact size. If you’re upgrading from budget speakers, it’s like going from a Toyota Corolla to driving a Mercedes. Less expensive speakers can get the job done, but what you get from the 707 s2 is refinement. The speakers are resolving. If you crave rich bass, add a subwoffer. Paired with a sub with the crossover frequency adjusted, they’re an absolute treat. Feed the speakers power, use good sources, high-quality music, and you’ll be rewarded with a solid listening experience. Clean and minimalist is the design of the 707 s2. It has magnetic grilles. The sound quality is excellent. It’s expensive—but if you’re interested and think this speaker will be an match for your room and system, go for it with confidence.

This is the best speaker I never have towards your movies to listen in music totally this is the best speakers. I have too bay another pair.

I really debated if they’d be worth it as I rounded out my bowers and Wilkins’s 7.1 surround sound setup, but I’m glad I did. Everyone comments how much of an upgrade these are for my rear speakers. I don’t love the grill, I think they’d look better in white, but I’m not too picky.

These are great speakers for the size. Whilst more expensive than some others in the same category/size, they really do ooze quality. I previously tried the 607's and these are a definite improvement both in looks and sound.

Perfect in every way for me. Wanted to create a gorgeous soundscape in a small room and these absolutely did it for me. Definitely need a sub — I bought the B&W ASW608. Not fully happy with its tuning yet but it certainly rounds out the sound. Also echo other reviews regarding the in-store experience. It was great to be able to audition the speakers before buying and everything was in stock. Love!

I was setting up my system with Kef and was highly considering the LS50 metas to complete my system…. But I couldn’t get the Bowers out of my head. I demo’d them at Best Buy maybe 3 times and compared them to the kefs and just liked the overall tone of these 700’s. I matched it with a bowers center speaker and put the kefs as my surrounds. I’m planning on getting another set to complete the sound or upgrading to the next level up for my mains. Vagon at Best Buy helped me with all my speaker needs and was patient with my demanding requests of demoing LOL. I’m not that bad but I loved his feed back and if he didn’t know answers to my questions, he looked it up on the spot.

Great addition to the collection of B&W speakers in our theater surround sound system.

Perfectly paired with slightly older Bowers & Wilkins CM8 floor standing speakers. Great choice in the bookshelf speaker category. Puts a slight dent in the pocket book but well worth it in the long run!
