BOWERS & WILKINS 706 S2

Pre owned. In excellent condition. Shows no obvious signs of wear. Original packaging not included.

The Bowers & Wilkins 706 S2 speakers are designed to deliver a rich, detailed, and remarkably realistic sound experience, even in larger rooms. Their two-way design combines a top-mounted tweeter with a woofer/midrange driver, ensuring optimal frequency distribution and remarkable clarity across the entire sound spectrum. The 25 mm decoupled carbon dome tweeter was specifically developed for the 700 Series and, compared to previous dual aluminum dome models, offers superior performance with a breakup frequency up to 47 kHz, providing even more refined detail and exceptional precision in the high frequencies.

The 165 mm woofer/midrange uses a Continuum™ cone, a lightweight and rigid material that allows faithful and natural reproduction of voices and instruments, delivering a sense of fluidity and sonic purity rarely achievable with other materials. The lower end of the spectrum is optimized by the rear bass reflex system with Flow Port technology, which controls airflow and improves bass response without introducing resonance or unwanted coloration.

These speakers handle a nominal power range of 30 to 120 watts and have an impedance of 8 ohms, making them compatible with a wide range of amplifiers. A sensitivity of 88 dB indicates that they can produce powerful, engaging sound even with moderate power levels, always maintaining control and precision.

Ideal as bookshelf speakers or mounted on stands, the 706 S2 combine a compact and elegant design with reference-level performance, capable of reproducing voices and instruments with extraordinary purity, accuracy, and naturalness, making them an excellent choice for those seeking high-quality sound in home listening spaces or studios.
