Bowers & Wilkins' 700 S3 loudspeaker series has seen three members join the coveted Signature club. Getting the Signature treatment usually means taking the standard speaker and adding refinement, polish and upgraded components, not to mention aesthetic embellishments or flourishes which tell the world you're the proud owner of something exclusive and just a bit special.
The B&W 702 S3 floorstanders, 705 S3 standmounts and HTM71 S3 centre speaker have all been upgraded to join the Signature stable, and we were keen to see how the first two models would sound when bolstered by those aforementioned upgrades. A quick trip to Bowers' facilities in Clapham was just the thing to see whether the Signatures were all mouth and no trousers, or whether they could take things to the next sonic level.
