Bowers & Wilkins has introduced a new generation of the popular 600 S3 speaker series, which draws on three decades of experience in creating a reference standard in affordable yet high-quality acoustic systems. This is the eighth generation of one of the most well-known Hi-Fi lines, receiving the most extensive update in the history of the Series 600.
Features:
- Type: center channel;
- Frequency response: 42 Hz - 33 kHz;
- Sensitivity: 87 dB;
- Tweeter: 25mm titanium dome;
- Mid/Bass driver: 130mm Continuum diaphragm.
The new titanium dome tweeter has added resolution and refinement to the sound. Bowers & Wilkins develops and manufactures all key components of the speaker systems themselves and gradually introduces innovative technologies. This approach is continued in the new models of the 600 S3 series, which feature numerous improvements in all aspects of their acoustic characteristics. Many of the new components are borrowed from the 700 S3 series and integrated into the redesigned and improved cabinet construction.
The most significant innovation in the 600 S3 series is the titanium dome tweeter technology. Its structure consists of two parts, with an ultra-thin, lightweight, yet rigid main dome 25 microns thick, reinforced by a second titanium ring 30 microns thick. This double dome is placed in a significantly elongated loading tube system, the design of which is inspired by the recently introduced 700 S3 series.
The longer loading tube lowers the resonance frequency of the cavity behind the dome, resulting in a more open sound less affected by the cabinet in which the tweeter is located. Additionally, the new titanium dome is surrounded by a mounting plate, the same as used in the 700 S3 series tweeter - to improve sound dispersion, and also has a more open design of the tweeter grille borrowed from the recently introduced 800 Signature series. This combination of new technologies ensures that the tweeter delivers smoother and more refined sound without compromising resolution or detail.
Bowers & Wilkins' signature Continuum diaphragms are still present in the midrange and mid/bass drivers of the new 600 S3 series, with the addition of more powerful magnetic systems from the 700 S3 series with low distortion levels. The low-frequency drivers with paper diaphragms in the floorstanding model 603 S3 are now also equipped with drivers from the 703 S3. Crossovers are also updated by including high-quality, modernized bypass capacitors like those in the 700 S3 series, providing higher resolution and transparency of sound.
