703 S2
Floorstanding speaker
The 703 features innovation and elegance. Powerful bass lines come roaring to life, while the speaker’s dedicated Continuum midrange driver and Carbon Dome tweeter lend an astonishing clarity to vocals and treble effects.
Room-filling realism
A big speaker in every sense, 703 S2 has both the grace and power to bring every element of your music to life, from delicate nuances to monstrous bass lines.
Sharper detail
Carbon Dome tweeters are a brand new technology 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.
