A two-way standmount speaker from the Bowers & Wilkins 600 Series S3 range. It pairs a 25mm Titanium Dome tweeter with a 165mm Continuum cone bass and midrange driver in a vented cabinet.

Bowers & Wilkins describes the 606 S3 as a stand mount speaker that takes the award-winning 606 formula and evolves it, with upgraded speaker terminals and a subtly modernised design.

Why you will love it

Titanium Dome tweeter

Bowers & Wilkins says its Titanium Dome tweeter combines exceptional resolution and insight with smooth, refined high-frequency reproduction. It also lists a new, more acoustically transparent tweeter grille mesh, first developed for its Signature models.

Continuum cone bass and midrange

A single 165mm (6.5 in) Continuum cone handles bass and midrange. Bowers & Wilkins says the composite construction of the Continuum cone avoids the abrupt transitions in behaviour that can impair a conventional drive unit, for a more open, neutral performance.

The cabinet is vented with Bowers & Wilkins' Flowport.

Upgraded speaker terminals

Bowers & Wilkins says the speaker terminals are derived from those introduced in its 700 Series and have an improved layout and a cleaner signal path between your amplifier and your loudspeakers.
