Bowers & Wilkins 707 S3 bookshelf speaker

The Bowers & Wilkins (B&W) 707 S3 is a premium bookshelf loudspeaker that represents the pinnacle of high-fidelity audio engineering for compact spaces. This model is part of the 700 Series, which bridges the gap between everyday audio and the brand's flagship studio-grade equipment. It features advanced technical innovations such as the Carbon Dome tweeter and the proprietary Continuum cone, which were developed to provide exceptional acoustic transparency and precision.

Originally founded in Worthing, West Sussex, England, in 1966 by John Bowers, the brand has maintained its identity as a British audio pioneer. While the top-tier 800 Series continues to be manufactured in the UK, the 700 Series—including the 707 S3—is primarily manufactured in the company's specialized factory in China to maintain competitive global pricing while adhering to strict British engineering standards.

Ownership of the brand has transitioned through major international corporate shifts in recent years. In 2020, Bowers & Wilkins was acquired by Sound United LLC, a US-based holding company. Subsequently, in 2022, Sound United was acquired by Masimo Corporation, a global medical technology firm. Today, Masimo remains the ultimate parent company, overseeing B&W as part of its professional and consumer audio division.
