Bowers & Wilkins FS-700 S3

Beautiful stands for pairing with 705 S3 speakers. They are expensive but worth it if you have the budget, and are a must for proper sound if using the speakers for fronts not on a shelf/case.

Sturdy And Secure

Stands work great. Speakers bolted right up to top plate. No worries about tipping over the BNW 705 S3 signature. That was the big selling point for me. Had no issues with the assembly.

Pretty but too expensive

They look great, they are well made and engineered. With sand, they don't radiate sound. Price was too much for what you get.

Good Stands

Not much to say. They do the job. Stable, solid, easy to set up.

Bowers & Wilkins FS-700 S3

The stands were delivered on time and looked great except for the scratches on one base plate. The stand assembly went well except the newly purchased speakers did not fit on mounting plat. The holes were not aligned. I did manage to drill holes in the metal mounting plate; thereby allowing me to mount the speakers. The speaker stands were too expensive not to fit properly without hassle. All is well that ends well, I guess. They do look fabulous after modification.

Expensive for sure - but quality is first class and with a little Blie Yack my Martin Logan speakers worked perfectly. Using B & W 600 series with rest of 7.2.1 system and if works great

Assemble carefully

These stands are beautiful and fit the new 700 series 3 bookshelf speakers perfectly. There is an error in the assembly instructions, however, which is why I only gave them 4 stars. The instructions say to assemble the top plate with the curved side to the rear. They simply won't fit that way. With the curve to the front (which makes more sense) they fit perfectly.

Quality product and expert service

The speaker stands are great quality and enhance the performance of the speakers.

Beautiful finish matching the speaker on the base though the vertical post is more of a flat finish. The thin silver stripe is meant to match the speakers when the grill is off. It works well with my entertainment unit but perhaps won't for everyone. Assembly is easy and I love that you can screw the speaker into it for security. Only real negative is they seem WAY overpriced however.

Bowers & Wilkins FS-700 S3

I bought these to match a pair of 706 S3s. These visually look nice, but for the cost (and about double of other stands), I feel the quality could be better. I lightly nicked one of the bases while unpacking, and it dented really easily either like compressed wood or a really soft wood. I realize this was my fault, but I would hope it would hold up better. Otherwise the set up was easy and quick, and all tools were provided. Then after a few days, one of the trim pieces started to bubble up (as per attached photo). I've tried to reseat it and adjust it, but it won't stay in place. Overall it's nice to have matching stands, but
