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.
The HTM71 S3 now features Tweeter-on-Top technology, ensuring perfect integration with similarly equipped 700 Series models in a surround sound system.
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.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. 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.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.Developed using advanced computer modeling techniques, the Aerofoil™ Profile bass cone has a variable thickness, providing stiffness and rigidity where it’s needed most. The result: deep and dynamic bass.Precision sound for sophisticated listening.SpecificationsSize & weightDimensions- Height: 165mm (6.5 in) cabinet only233mm (9.2 in) including tweeterWidth: 628mm (247 in) cabinet only Depth: 318mm (12.5 in) cabinet only256mm (14.0 in) including grille and terminalsNet weight- 17.45kg (38.5 lb)Technical detailsTechnical features- Decoupled Carbon Dome tweeterSolid Body Tweeter-on-TopContinuum cone FST midrangeAerofoil Profile bass conesFlowportDescription- 3-way vented-box systemDrive units- 1x ø25mm (1 in) Decoupled Carbon Dome high-frequency1x ø130mm (5 in) Continuum cone FST midrange2x ø130mm (5 in) Aerofoil Profile bassFrequency range-45Hz and 33zFrequency response-50Hz-28kHz ±3dBSensitivity- 89dB spl (2.83Vrms, 1m)Harmonic distortion- 2nd and 3rd harmonics (90dB, 1m on axis)<1% 90Hz-22kHz<0.5% 120Hz-20kHzNominal impedance- 8 Ω (minimum 3.1 Ω)Recommended amplifier power-30W-200W into 8 on an unclipped programMax recommended cable impedance-0.1 Ω
