Bowers & Wilkins 705 S3 Marantz Model 50 Bundle

Bundles are back. The Bowers & Wilkins 705 S3 Bookshelf Speakers and Marantz Model 50 are a match made in heaven. The Marantz Model 50 is a precisely engineered Class A/B amplifier, and will drive your loudspeakers with authority yet reveal details you never knew existed. The 705 S3 are B&W's ultimate 700 Series stand mount speaker, a no-holds-barred celebration of excellence able to highlight all the subtle nuances in your music that other speakers miss. Its Carbon Dome tweeter is housed in a Solid Body Tweeter-on-Top enclosure evolved from the latest generation of 800 Series Diamond. That joins a new and subtly curved baffle endowed with an all-new 'pod' housing for its Continuum Cone bass/midrange driver, ensuring that you hear less of the speaker's cabinet, and more of the music you love. Find out more below.

Bowers & Wilkins 705 S3 Floorstanding Speakers

The 705 S3 features the latest generation of B&W's iconic Solid Body Tweeter-on-Top housing. Its redesigned, 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 aluminium to better resist resonance. Carbon Dome tweeters are purpose-built for the 700 Series. Delivering a dramatic improvement on the aluminium double dome tweeter, they raise the breakup threshold to 47kHz, for pinpoint imaging accuracy and detail. Learn more here.

Marantz Model 50 Stereo Amplifier

The Marantz Model 50 Integrated Amplifier is a testament to the enduring appeal of pure analogue stereo excellence. With 70 watts per channel and Marantz's signature Current Feedback Class A/B amplification technology, it maximizes speaker capability, delivering a warm, rich, and spacious sound that audiophiles crave. The absence of digital audio circuitry simplifies operation and eliminates the risk of audible interference, ensuring a truly immersive listening experience.

One of the standout features of the Marantz Model 50 is its versatile suite of inputs and outputs. It accommodates various audio sources and even includes a Power-Amp-Direct input, making integration into an AV setup a breeze. What sets it apart from the competition is the unique HDAM-SA3 discrete amplifier circuitry, which outperforms integrated circuits used in other amplifiers, revealing intricate details in your vinyl records through the Marantz Musical Phono EQ gain stage.
