Bowers & Wilkins 705 Signature
The Bowers & Wilkins 705 Signature represents the most refined expression of B&W’s acclaimed 700 Series standmount design. Built on the proven foundation of the 705 S2, the Signature version receives meaningful upgrades in materials, components, and finish — all focused on extracting greater transparency, control, and musical realism.
At the heart of the 705 Signature is B&W’s Carbon Dome tweeter, housed in the brand’s iconic Solid Body Tweeter-on-Top enclosure. This decoupled aluminum housing minimizes resonance and delivers exceptional high-frequency clarity, precision, and air. The result is treble that is detailed yet smooth, allowing subtle textures and spatial cues to emerge naturally without edge or glare.
Midrange and bass duties are handled by a 6.5-inch Continuum™ cone driver, a proprietary B&W material engineered to eliminate abrupt breakup behavior. This driver provides a remarkably open and coherent midrange, with tight, articulate bass that belies the speaker’s compact size. Voices sound natural and present, while instruments retain their body and tonal character.
Signature-specific upgrades include premium crossover components, carefully selected and tuned by B&W’s engineering team, as well as refined internal damping. These enhancements contribute to improved resolution, greater dynamic nuance, and a more effortless presentation across a wide range of music.
Huge sound from a small speaker
The 705 Signature delivers a presentation that is clean, open, and highly resolved, with a tonal balance that favors accuracy and musical honesty over exaggeration. The overall sound is neutral to slightly revealing, yet never sterile — a balance that allows recordings to speak for themselves.
The midrange is the star of the show. Vocals are rendered with excellent clarity and natural timbre, positioned confidently within the soundstage without being pushed forward. Acoustic instruments carry realistic body and texture, making the 705 Signature particularly rewarding with jazz, classical, and well-recorded vocal music.
High frequencies are detailed and extended, with the tweeter-on-top design contributing to a sense of air and spaciousness that helps the speaker disappear in the room. Cymbals, strings, and ambient cues are presented with precision and refinement rather than edge or brightness.
Bass performance is tight, articulate, and well controlled. While the 705 Signature does not aim for exaggerated low-end weight, it delivers excellent pitch definition and rhythmic drive for its size. When properly positioned and paired with quality amplification, the speaker conveys a surprising sense of scale and dynamic contrast.
Soundstage presentation is wide and well organized, with strong image focus and convincing depth. The speaker excels at maintaining separation and clarity even in complex passages, allowing listeners to follow individual lines within the music with ease.
Overall, the 705 Signature offers a refined, engaging listening experience that rewards careful system matching and quality source components. It is a speaker that prioritizes transparency, coherence, and musical involvement — ideal for listeners who value detail, balance, and long-term listening satisfaction.
