Bowers & Wilkins 700 Series 704 S2 Loudspeakers

Looks can be deceiving. Despite its slim dimensions, the 704 S2 has the commanding presence of a much larger speaker, thanks to advanced technologies such as a dedicated Continuum™ cone FST™ midrange.

Carbon Dome™ tweeter

Carbon Dome™ tweeters are a brand new technology purpose-built for the 700 Series. Delivering a dramatic improvement on the aluminium double-dome tweeter, they raise the breakup threshold to 47kHz, for pinpoint imaging accuracy and detail.

Continuum™ Cone

First introduced with the 800 Series Diamond, the Continuum™ cone represents the biggest step-change in midrange performance since Kevlar®. Its woven, coated material provides highly controlled break-up, resulting in a more open, neutral midrange.

Decoupled midrange

The midrange driver in the floor-standers feature a decoupled design, adapted from a similar system in the 800 Series Diamond. Decoupling reduces cabinet colouration, and boosts midrange clarity. 

Aerofoil™ Profile bass cone

Developed using advanced computer modeling techniques, the Aerofoil™ Profile bass cone has a variable thickness, providing stiffness and rigidity where it’s needed most. The result: deep and dynamic bass.

Small but impressive
14 April 2021  | 

I previously had some B&W CM9 speakers, which are a much larger floorstander, but the main lounge in our new house was smaller so the speakers needed to be too. Very, very impressed with these speakers for music, they give brilliant clarity without becoming overbright or tiring. Very musical. I have them hooked up to a Supernait 3, seems an excellent pairing.
