    Power and Scale That Belies Its Compact Form

    Offering power and scale that belies its compact form, the Bowers & Wilkins 607 S2 Anniversary Edition bookshelf speaker features the Continuum™ cone midwoofer and updated crossovers to ensure exceptional resolution and musicality. It is an ideal speaker for stereo or surround sound use.

    Perfect for smaller spaces, the 607 S2 Anniversary Edition uncovers incredible insight and dynamism in your music. Using the same game-changing technologies as its siblings, 607 S2 Anniversary Edition is perfect for enjoying your music or as part of a home theater system.

    Layered, Beautiful Details

    The new 607 S2 Anniversary Edition adopts a refined and upgraded version of the proven Decoupled Double Dome tweeter, offering 38kHz breakup performance. The result? An accurate and immersive reproduction of your favorite music.

    The Double Dome design comprises a 35-micron aluminum diaphragm reinforced with a 50-micron ring profile bonded to the rear surface of the dome. This stiffens the structure in its weakest area and pushes the break-up frequency of the structure up to 38kHz. At the same time, this approach minimizes the amount of mass being added to the assembly.

    The tweeter is fully decoupled from the loudspeaker cabinet, achieved by housing the high-frequency assembly so that it effectively floats free of the baffle. This isolates any of the energy generated by the tweeter from the cabinet, therefore reducing any unwanted sound generated by the cabinet itself and also stopping any of the low and mid­ frequency energy (generated by the larger drive units in the enclosure) from affecting the tweeter's output.

    Continuum™ Cone Midwoofer

    Voices and instruments are delivered with purity and precision, thanks to the revolutionary Continuum™ cone midwoofer, as found in Bowers & Wilkins flagship 800 Series Diamond. Once reserved for only the company's most revered models, Continuum brings you a cleaner and more accurate performance.

    The Continuum cone creates layered midrange sound with a pristine soundscape. The human ear is naturally tuned into sound in this frequency, and Bowers & Wilkins has understood the power of the perfect midrange presentation for over a generation.

    Developed over an eight-year period, the Continuum cone was first featured on the company's flagship 800 Series Diamond models, including the 800 D3, used in Abbey Road Studios. It truly makes your music come alive, delivering the crucial sounds fundamental to any great music experience.

    For powerful low frequency performance, the 607 S2 Anniversary Edition features two optimized low-frequency cones that combine terrific extension and superlative accuracy to give high levels of controlled bass with your favorite music and movies.

    Optimized Crossover and Bi-Wirable Speaker Terminals

    In addition to the celebratory cosmetic changes, the 600 Series Anniversary Edition also benefits from a new optimized crossover design featuring carefully selected components, offering greater insight from your music.

    The 607 S2 has two linked pairs of speaker terminals on the back. For conventional connection, the terminal links should remain in place as delivered and just one pair of terminals connected to the amplifier. For bi-wire connections or bi-amplification, the terminal links should be removed and each pair of terminals connected to the amplifier or amplifiers independently. Bi-wiring can improve the resolution of low-level detail.

    "This is a cleaner, more insightful and overall more engaging performance from a pair of speakers that were already among the best you could buy for their outlay. The older versions would have remained on top of the tree, had they not been knocked off by the 607 S2 Anniversary Edition. But when you have both pairs in the same listening room, it’s difficult to go back."

    "If you’re looking for a pair of lower-midrange speakers and the B&W 606 S2 are just out of your budget range, then these are a superb option – and a pair of speakers worthy of celebrating any silver anniversary."
