Opruiming demoset bowers & wilkins 706s3 mocha setprijs zonder stands € 1598,- (normssl 2098,-) stands fs-700s3 apart te koop voor € 600,- de set i.p.v € 900,-
Against your recent EUR comps, this is a bit ambitious rather than fair value: €1,598 sits above the €1,548 75th percentile and well over the €1,489 median. It’s not wildly out of line, but it’s priced at the top end of the current used spread, so I’d only move quickly if the speaker is genuinely exceptional condition or includes useful extras.
That said, the 706 S3 is a strong buy when you want a compact standmount with a more refined, open presentation than many rivals in the class. It’s well regarded for clean imaging, easy placement, and a lively but controlled sound that works especially well with good amplification. At this price, the upside is best if the finish is clean, the grilles and plinths are intact, and the seller can show careful ownership.
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.
