Since their humble beginnings in 1966, they have grown to become one of the largest speaker companies in the world and unquestionably the largest high-performance speaker brand in the world. The development of the main Continuum™ driver took B&W engineers over 8 years and 70 different versions of materials until they came up with something that would surpass the low distortion and break up levels of Kevlar which they previously used. The color of the Continuum™ driver is a rich silver, but the important part is how this new material behaves with audio signals. Most drivers add some flavor of their own to the signal in how they react to the sound being fed to them. Continuum™ holds it's shape better than anything the B&W team has ever produced. One of the most striking things about the Signature 700 Series is its beautiful finish. They sourced the wood veneers from Alpi--a company in Italy that specializes in sustainable wood harvesting. The veneers then get nine coats of finish and I have to say the look is just spectacular! To highlight the luster of the finish, the Continuum™ driver gets a highly polished metal trim ring and the protective grill over the Carbon Double Dome tweeter also has the same bright silver finish. On the rear of the speaker is a special signature nameplate that completes their unique identity. You’ll also notice on the back that these speakers have dual high-quality binding posts so you can bi-wire or bi-amp amp them as you see in our setup. We think the 705 Signature will be one of the best possible choices you could make for a bookshelf speaker in a small to medium-sized room. Their bass performance reaches down to 50 Hz which is pretty low for a bookshelf. And you could always augment their bass response with a fast subwoofer like the B&W DB4. If your room is larger than around 13 by 18, you’ll probably want to consider adding a sub or stepping it up to the 702 Signature! In the 702 Signature, the Continuum™ is used exclusively for the critical midrange frequencies. Everything about the tech used here came from the top of the line 800 series. First, the driver has virtually no surround, the material goes all the way to the edge. This reduces midrange coloration as there is no surround to add distortion. The driver itself is placed in a cast aluminum basket that was specifically designed to reduce resonances. Then, the whole assembly is totally isolated from the cabinet with a pretty unique approach. To augment the midrange driver, the 702 Signature has 3 6 ½” Aerofoil™ cone woofers. Yes, this is yet another special material developed by the engineers at Stening that has less distortion than their previous woofer materials due to the way they tapered the cone and the material used. The combination of three small drivers gives you the surface area of a huge woofer, but the speed advantage of smaller drivers. The bass impact you hear from the 702 Signatures is just super fast and tight!
