The Bowers & Wilkins 603 S3 is the largest loudspeaker in the 600 Series and is ideal for larger rooms and home theatres. It combines their new Titanium Dome™ tweeter—which offers both clarity of sound, as well as excellent high frequency dispersion—with Continuum cone technology for a truly audiophile experience.

Layered, beautiful details

The 603 S3's new Titanium Dome tweeter delivers smooth and refined high-frequency reproduction, providing an accurate and immersive insight into your favourite music. 603 S3 boasts a new design that dramatically improves the materials used in its tweeter grille mesh, first developed for our revered Signature models. The Titanium Dome tweeters provide exceptional resolution and realism.

Precision and transparency

The Continuum cone avoids the abrupt vocal transitions that can impair conventional drive units. With 603 S3, experience a more open and neutral performance—voices are delivered with precision and transparency.

Upgraded Performance

Based on the set of speaker terminals we introduced in our 700 Series, the new 603 S3's improved design offers a cleaner signal-path between your amplifier and loudspeakers.

Testimonials

Bought some Rega Kyte speakers, stands and chords from DB online and they were incredibly helpful. They updated my delivery address very quickly and recommended a longer cut of cables which they did complimentary. They also noticed I didn’t order with banana plugs so called me back to double check, which I did mean to order. When i had some issues connecting my cables and speakers, I called for some advice which they happily gave. Excellent service and next day delivery to London. Thoroughly recommend.

Probably one of the best companies in the world. They had to special order in the speakers which took a fair bit of time, which is totally understandable, but they kept in touch with me throughout the entire time with updates (even on a Sunday!!!) and once the speakers were with them, they were dispatched and arrived next day.

The entire sound system that I purchased is insanely good, but still not as good as Doug Brady HiFi!

I have recently purchased a HiFi package with Doug Brady and I could not be more thrilled with my experience with them.
When I walked into the store, I was made to feel welcome and was introduced to some of the products. I produces a list of specific items I was interested in and John was really helpful in showing me these items. He set the system up so I could experience it, he made some suggestions which made the package even better. Nothing seemed too much trouble for him, he was very knowledgeable about the products and gave great advice. I didn't feel pressured to buy anything, or didn't feel that he was upselling at any point. I left with an amazing package and I'd like to thank John and the team for the fantastic experience.

It’s now two weeks since I bought home my new system and I wanted to say thanks again for all your help, advice and guidance, not to mention cups of tea. I now have a system that meets all my requirements and sounds fantastic. Special thanks to Jon, who I hope is on the road to recovery from his operation and to Roger, who helped me finalise my choice. The Rega Saturn, Hegel H190V and Dali Rubicon 2 is undoubtedly the best system I have ever owned.
