Revolutionary Titanium Dome Tweeter
First-Time Titanium Implementation
The HTM6 S3 introduces Bowers & Wilkins' all-new Titanium Dome tweeter - the first time titanium has been used in their stereo loudspeakers. This advanced material delivers exceptional resolution and insight with smooth, refined high-frequency reproduction, ensuring crisp and accurate high frequencies for dialogue clarity and musical detail.
- Decoupled Double Dome Design: Features a thin but immensely stiff 25mm dome that's completely decoupled from the cabinet, floating free in gel-like material to prevent cabinet vibrations from reaching the tweeter
- Enhanced Tube Loading: Longer tube-loading system further reduces unwanted radiation from the back of the tweeter, isolating it from cabinet resonances and reducing distortion to vanishingly low levels
- 800 Signature Grille: Acoustically transparent grille mesh inspired by the top-of-the-range 800 Signature Series minimizes interference for pristine audio reproduction
- Natural, Spacious Sound: The result is a more natural, spacious, and accurate sound with exceptional vocal clarity
Twin Continuum Cone Drivers for Lifelike Dialogue
- Dual 130mm Continuum™ Cones: Twin 5-inch drivers provide rich, detailed midrange and powerful bass for voices and instruments delivered with purity and precision
- Enhanced Motor Assembly: More powerful, lower distortion motor assembly inspired by the 700 S3 range further enhances the already impressive vocal response
- Composite Construction: Woven composite material avoids the abrupt transitions in behavior that can impair conventional drive units, delivering clearer dialogue even during climactic soundtracks
- Open, Neutral Performance: Experience a more transparent sound that delivers voices and instruments with exceptional precision and clarity
Enhanced Bass Performance
- Flowport™ Technology: Rear-firing, dimpled flared port provides smooth, deep, and efficient bass response without turbulent noise or distortion
- Bass Reflex Design: Optimised cabinet volume allows for natural bass response that complements the midrange drivers
- Versatile Placement: Two-piece foam port plugs included for fine-tuning bass response near walls - use the outer piece for less attenuation or both pieces together for maximum bass reduction
- Room-Friendly Design: Compact dimensions allow placement on shelves, tabletops, or AV furniture while maintaining impressive performance
Sophisticated Engineering
700 Series Inspired Terminals
Derived from the speaker terminals recently introduced in the 700 Series range, the speaker terminals on the HTM6 S3 feature an improved inline layout separated from the bass reflex port, providing a cleaner signal path and easier connections between your amplifier and loudspeakers.
- Enhanced Internal Bracing: Strengthened bracing uses higher quality, stiffer materials for increased rigidity and reduced resonances
- Updated Crossover: Optimised crossover design featuring carefully selected components and higher-quality bypass capacitors from the 700 Series deliver improved resolution and transparency
- Rigid Cabinet Design: Advanced construction techniques naturally make the assembly more rigid for reduced cabinet coloration
- Bi-Wire Capability: Dual binding posts with jumper straps allow for bi-wiring or bi-amping configurations for enthusiasts seeking maximum performance
Exceptional Centre Channel Performance
- Crystal-Clear Dialogue: Hear every word with remarkable clarity, eliminating the need to constantly adjust volume during quiet dialogue scenes
- Precise Sound Localisation: Seamlessly anchors on-screen action with accurate imaging that keeps dialogue and effects locked to the screen
- Superior Detail Retrieval: Reveals subtle vocal nuances and atmospheric details that are easily missed with lesser centre speakers
- Excellent Dynamics: Handles everything from whispered dialogue to explosive sound effects with impressive dynamic range and low distortion
Perfect for Home Cinema Systems
- Compact Dimensions: 160 x 480 x 255mm (H x W x D) cabinet only, fitting discreetly in most entertainment centers
- System Integration: Perfect match for 603 S3, 606 S3, or 607 S3 speakers, providing consistent voicing throughout your room
- Flexible Placement: Position above or below your TV screen, whichever is closest to ear level at the main listening position
- Self-Adhesive Rubber Feet: Included feet secure the speaker to your mounting surface and protect furniture from scratches while adding vibration isolation
