What is the frequency response range?

The frequency response range is from 50Hz to 28kHz, allowing for a wide spectrum of audio frequencies to be accurately reproduced, ensuring clear and detailed sound for vocal and instrumental clarity.

What type of speaker design does it use?

It uses a 3-way vented box system design, which includes a dedicated midrange driver and twin bass cones. This design helps in delivering balanced sound across lows, mids, and highs for a rich audio experience.

What are the key features of the tweeter and midrange drivers?

The speaker features a 25mm decoupled carbon dome high-frequency drive unit housed in a solid aluminum Tweeter-on-Top enclosure to reduce resonance, and a 130mm Continuum cone midrange driver for precise and transparent vocal reproduction.

Is the speaker passive or powered and what amplifier power is recommended?

This is a passive speaker designed to be connected to an external amplifier. The recommended amplifier power range is from 30W to 200W to ensure optimal performance and avoid distortion.

What is the impedance and sensitivity rating?

The nominal impedance is 8 Ohms, making it compatible with most amplifiers, and it has a sensitivity rating of 89dB, which indicates the sound pressure level produced at a given power input, supporting efficient and loud playback.

Bowers & Wilkins 700 Series Gloss Black 3-Way Center Channel Speaker - FP43214

$2,800

Bowers & Wilkins FP43214 700 Series Gloss Black 3-Way Center Channel Speaker

Our flagship center-channel speaker features a Carbon Dome drive unit housed in a Tweeter-On-Top enclosure, a 130mm (5in) Continuum Cone FST™ midrange driver – particularly important for clarity with dialogue – and twin Aerofoil™ Profile bass cones. It’s the perfect partner for the 705 S3, 703 S3 and 702 S3.

Features

Uncompromising vocal performance
The HTM71 S3 now features Tweeter-on-Top technology, ensuring perfect integration with similarly equipped 700 Series models in a surround sound system.
A house for high frequencies
The 700 Series features the latest generation of our iconic Solid Body Tweeter-on-Top housing. Its new, more elongated form incorporates a longer tube-loading system to produce an even more free and open sound with high frequencies. The carefully decoupled housing is milled from a single solid block of aluminum to better resist resonance.
Sharper detail
Carbon Dome tweeters are purpose-built for the 700 Series. Delivering a dramatic improvement on the aluminum double dome tweeter, they raise the breakup threshold to 47kHz, for pinpoint imaging accuracy and detail.
Truly amazing sound
Thanks to its composite construction, the Continuum™ cone avoids the abrupt transitions in behavior that can impair the performance of a conventional drive unit. The result is a more open, neutral performance that delivers voices and instruments with precision and transparency.
Clean and clear
Every three-way loudspeaker in the new 700 Series has a dedicated midrange cone using four key Bowers & Wilkins technologies: the Continuum cone, FST™, Biomimetic Suspension and midrange decoupling, the latter ensuring minimal interference from the operation of the loudspeaker’s bass drivers.
A triumph of science
Developed using advanced computer modelling techniques, the Aerofoil™ Profile bass cone has variable thickness, providing stiffness and rigidity where it’s needed most. The result: deep and dynamic bass.
