B&W 603 Speakers
Formidable might be the best way to describe the performance of the 603's at their price point.
High frequencies are handled by the proven Decoupled Double Dome tweeter, but here with a re-engineered assembly for better performance, whilst improved paper bass cones combine effortless power and endless low-end with the precision and low-distortion accuracy we demand. Sat in the middle the Continuum midrange driver delivers breathtaking realism to vocals and the entire sound is cohesive, energetic and more refined than previous models.
The 6th generation 600 series is not just about cleaner sound – it boasts a cleaner look, too. The grille pegs have been removed and replaced with magnets to create a stunning, subtle but contemporary look. All 600 series models are now available with matte finishes in black and white.
