Bowers&Wilkins Floorstanding speaker 603 S2 ANNIVERSARY EDITION-BLACK
Accurate and immersive
38kHz breakup performance is offered by the refined and upgraded Decoupled Double Dome tweeter. This results in layered, detailed sound you won't be able to tear your ears away from.
Precise performance
The Continuum cone delivers voices and instruments with both precision and purity. It used to be only used in B&W's flagship ranges, but now it's used in their more affordable ranges, such as this one.
Bass you can feel
Powerful, yet controlled - this is the bass performance you can expect from the 603 S2 Anniversary Edition. This is thanks to two optimised low-frequency cones that deliver highly controlled bass with the combination of excellent extension and extreme accuracy
Refined crossover design
Optimised crossover design is one of the internal changes you wouldn't notice until you put some tunes on. Each crossover has been upgraded with carefully selected components so you can get more out of your music collection.

Opinions about Bowers&Wilkins Floorstanding speaker 603 S2 ANNIVERSARY EDITION-BLACK
Pros
Good speakers for their money
Minuses
It seems like there is no money for my money, I took it for 100 with a tail at one time
Review
Good speakers, in my case, both the amplifier and the AC were new, I had to warm. What exactly did not know (the first experience was in Hi Fi), but after a couple of days everything began to play an order of magnitude better. I really liked the bass, and in terms of range, density and work. A little harsh account. Any amplifier will not go to them, I took 7000 with Maranz, it seems to play, but then the bass is not enough, then the middle will cut it a little. Changed it on the SA30 arches, everything became much better. The account became softer, the reserve for power was given by growth in bass and its quality study. In general, I recommend good speakers.

Pros
High-quality solid thing! Super sound even from my Onkyo TX-8270
Review
I purchased these columns on the advice of experts not only the RU remote control, the manager made a very good discount, thank you very much! I recommend that the columns be purchased if your budget is 100 thousand! But keep in mind the amp no worse than Rotel RA-1572 (or at least Rotel A -14), and I will soon order him here!

I don?t really understand the acoustics, I advised a friend to buy B W 603 S2 Anniversary Edition. After a week of use, I can share my impressions - the sound is unrealistically cool! The complete effect of presence, bass, upper notes are all just fine. If you compare with the acoustics that I had before, then this is like a button phone with a brand new iPhone. Very satisfied!
