From the opening bars I’m immediately pulled deep into the fabric of the recording and closer to its emotional intent as Orton’s richly textured vocals are opened up across the soundstage. The treble and midrange performance that these speakers can achieve is to put it simply, pure class, illustrating the pro engineering that underpins their performance. Bowers & Wilkins 703 S3 is a three-way design with twin 6.5″ bass drivers, 6″ midrange and a 1″ tweeter that’s housed in its own top mounted external enclosure. Ground up refinements In 1970, the ionovac-tweeter equipped P2 speakers were produced. They were also licensed by Sony and rebadged in Worthing to be distributed in Japan. [6] In 1972 a new production facility was opened in Meadow Road, Worthing. Housing anechoic chambers and extensive Bruel & Kjaer measurement equipment, the research team investigated phase linearity and speaker cone construction using laser interferometry.In October 2017 Bowers & Wilkins became the official headphones and loudspeaker partner of Abbey Road Studios.

The 800 loudspeaker range was improved into matrix versions with its very rigid cabinet construction in 1987. In a world dominated by Beats and EarPods, a pair of quality headphones like the PXs only serves to enhance B&W’s reputation. Bowers provides the widest choice of cost effective, quality measuring instruments currently available.

In 1702 he was sent to the Scotch college at Douay; afterwards proceeded to Rome... Full length grille is a practical add on, but the 703 S3 just look too good to hide their hardware Fighting talk
