    We are very proud to announce that our 700 Series Signature range of loudspeakers have been awarded the prestigious ‘EISA Premium Loudspeaker Series 2024-2025’ award!    Bowers & Wilkins has only bestowed the Signature mark on eight series of loudspeakers since 1966, reserving the name for our most exclusive, prestigious and exceptional products. This recognition from the esteemed EISA panel highlights the exceptional craftsmanship and performance of our 702 S3 Signature, 705 S3 Signature, and HTM71 S3 Signature models, building on a heritage that stretches back to the acclaimed Silver Signature loudspeaker of 1991, originally developed as a posthumous tribute to the founder of the company, John Bowers.   The EISA panel remarked: “…the 700 S3 Signature speakers look as good as they sound: lively and dynamic, with effortless imaging and fine-touch detail.”   This accolade is the result of years of dedication, innovation and expertly honed knowledge from our world-class engineering team, as well as many other teams across the business who have contributed immensely to the success of the new 700 Series Signature. We couldn’t be more proud to have created a range of exceptional loudspeakers that truly embody Bowers & Wilkins' True Sound philosophy.    Thank you EISA, for this honour!    #BowersWilkins #TrueSound #EISAAwards #AudioExcellence
