Information
These speakers are rare, we have the only pair available in NZ and also have a pair of ex demo matching Detuk Gloss Floor Stands which have the same paint work, better than the ones pictured, this is a super rare combo!
Crafted. Honed. Perfected.
Featuring the Continuum cone and Carbon Dome, this compact stand-mount loudspeaker is finished in exclusive Datuk Gloss and features optimised crossovers, making it worthy of the Signature nameplate.
Optimised tweeter housing
Milled from a solid block of aluminium, the Solid Body Tweeter housing design creates an acoustically optimised housing that is exceptionally inert and resistant to resonances.
Sharper detail
Carbon Dome tweeters are purpose-built for the 700 Series and deliver pinpoint imaging accuracy and detailed insight into your music.
Truly amazing sound
Voices and instruments are delivered with purity and precision, thanks to the smooth, accurate Continuum cone mid-bass driver.

Reviews
Where the 705 S2 moves on from its predecessors is that as well as this supreme capability, there is a simple and palpable sense of joy to the way it makes music.
The two new Signature models have been carefully upgraded and lavishly finished to be a showcase for current Bowers & Wilkins design, engineering and manufacturing processes.
The Bowers & Wilkins 700 Series Signature loudspeakers look as special as they sound.
