Commercial Bowers & Wilkins 603 S2 Anniversary Edition Floorstanding Loudspeakers The powerful 603 S2 Anniversary Edition combines the accuracy and transparency of our acclaimed Continuum™ mid-range cone with the scale and authority of two dedicated bass drivers. Featuring upgraded crossovers for even more transparency and a unique trim-ring to celebrate its status, the 603 S2 Anniversary Edition is the most sophisticated affordable floor-standing loudspeaker we’ve ever made. A celebration of sound. The 603 S2 Anniversary Edition is the largest and most capable loudspeaker in the 600 Series
Condition is unknown, so US$1,887 is hard to love unless these are exceptionally clean and complete; against typical used listings, it reads ambitious rather than fair. A pre-owned dealer listing has the same model at US$1,295, and broader new/retail pricing for the 603 S2 line has sat around US$2,300 per pair, which puts this asking price uncomfortably close to new-money territory for an unknown-condition used pair.
That said, the 603 S2 is a well-liked floorstander for good reason: it gives you a big, full-bodied sound, solid bass extension, and the kind of easy room-filling scale that makes it a strong value when priced right. If the cabinets are clean, drivers are original, and the pair includes grilles/spikes and has no hissy tweeters or pushed-in cones, it can still be a worthwhile buy—but at this ask I’d want proof of condition and original completeness before moving.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Bowers & Wilkins traces its origins to 1966 in Worthing, West Sussex, England, when John Bowers, a passionate audio enthusiast and former electronics shop owner, founded the company with the help of a £10,000 bequest from a satisfied customer, Miss Knight. Bowers, who had honed his speaker-building skills as a hobby while running a radio and TV rental shop with partner Roy Wilkins, launched the venture from the back of that very shop. This modest beginning fueled a relentless pursuit of audio perfection, establishing Bowers & Wilkins as a British icon in high-fidelity sound reproduction.
The brand excels in premium loudspeakers, from flagship studio monitors like the legendary 801 series—adopted by Abbey Road Studios in 1979—to accessible Domestic Monitor lines such as the enduring 600 Series. Its portfolio has expanded to encompass high-end headphones, including the iconic P5 and Zeppelin designs, alongside wireless speakers and formation systems, all emphasizing advanced driver technology, precision cabinetry, and Continuum cones for unparalleled clarity.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Bowers & Wilkins commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its engineering excellence, musical accuracy, and heritage of innovation. Far from mid-tier or niche, it rivals the elite, blending cutting-edge research from facilities like Steyning with a reputation for reference-grade performance that defines luxury hi-fi.
