Description

B&W 603 S2 AE Overview

The 603 S2 AE also comes with a pair of bass drivers which are very similar to those in the 700 series. They are effectively damped to give a high break-up frequency and a very rich and deep bass response.

A rear-firing port is present and it is tuned to 35Hz, giving the 603 S2 AE a very impressive low bass output, which is much stronger than many other floor standers of this size. It can be adjusted via a two-piece foam bung and is bi-writeable if you want to use it that way.

As with most high-end floor stands, the 603 S2 AE requires a good amplifier. The 603 S2 can be run with amps as small as 30 Watts but the best sound is achieved with a more powerful setup. We were able to run it with a Cyrus i7-XR (HFC 473), which produced a satisfying and capable partnership.

B&W 603 S2 AE Features

B&W has long been known for its quality and performance at the very highest levels, and the 603 S2 AE is no exception. It is a floorstander that will appeal to anyone looking for a highly capable and sophisticated speaker for their home cinema system or for a round Hi-Fi solution that does a great job at doing justice to your music collection.

The 603 S2 AE features the acclaimed Continuum cone technology which first appeared on the flagship 800 Series Diamond speakers and is here in its seventh generation to offer cleaner, more precise sound, to a wider group of listeners. Its combination with a new optimized crossover design and carefully selected components improves resolution, transparency, and insight into your music.

The B&W 603 S2 AE uses a re-engineered version of the proven Decoupled Double Dome tweeter, offering 38kHz breakup performance that is perfectly suited to a wide range of music. It has been designed to be strong, stiff, and stable in order to deliver a resonant and accurate sound.

The midrange driver is a B&W woven Continuum cone, which is made from an eye-catching silver mesh. It is part of a B&W FST (Fixed Suspension Transducer) drive unit, which replaces the traditional rubber surround with a foam ring that damps vibrations to improve clarity and reduce distortion.

It's a good thing that these drivers are included at this price point because they offer a very clean, precise, and transparent sound, with the Continuum cone also delivering realism to vocals. We're used to B&W's trademark yellow kevlar midrange cones and it's refreshing to see them replaced here by this attractive, eye-catching silver material, which is a far more effective self-damping cone than the usual rubberized one.

Continuum cones have been around for years but it took B&W eight years to create this unique cone that's a blend of a weave of different synthetic materials that is similar in effect to Kevlar. It's said to have better self-damping, less noise, and a faster impulse response than the usual cone materials.

Why Choose AV Kart?

There are many online stores nowadays who are selling Hi-Fi equipment. Some of them even displays lucrative disounts but here's how AV Kart is different from them -

  4. After Sales Support - The only issue with Hi-Fi equipment is that you will not find local service centers in every city. Most of the brands have their service centers only in the metro cities and hence it becomes difficult for the customers who are living far away places to claim warranty. At AV Kart, we solve this problem by arranging pikcup and drop facility from the nearest service center with the help of our logistic partners.
  5. Telephonic Support - In the instances when you buy any product and install it yourself but facing troubles with using it? You can book a call/video call with us to understand the operations of your new equipment.
