We'll see. I am expecting a pair to compare to my 802D3 and 804D3.

When I saw the 702S2s in Magnolia, I was impressed with how small they are.

Looks like these new B&W 703s2's are oneof those very rare bargains that doesn't come on market but once every 30 years or so !

All I see is hyperbole so far.

The cited poster has a reputation.

Kal’s impressions will actually be meaningful. I always appreciate your reviews.

They Sound more like the raved Vandersteen 7s!!

Steve Guttenberg (C/NET - Audiophiliac) did a review on the 705 S2. It was somewhat of a mixed results review.

Steve contributes to Stereophile as well and I have found his reviews to be useful.
He really liked the 805D3 last year. Not quite so much with the 705 S2.

Hmmm.

Have you no shame?

[Rick721]

Could these 702s2's be the bargain of a lifetime?

After listening to a pair they could be!

One of the reviews sure thinks they are!

So HYBERBOLE=BS
I have heard the 803d3 & the 804d4 excellant speakers. Very much impressed.
Having the 803diamonds I fine it hard to believe the 700 series could even compare with the diamonds let alone compare to the d3 series...MO.
I'm ��

I've heard new 800 series and think the 702 s2's are the sweet spot in the whole B&W Line! I thought the review on the 702 s2's was 'spot on' and is a good review on these speakers!

Go listen to the 800 series and then listen to the 702 s2's and see what you think! Don't listen to what a reviewer has to say about them or what I think about them, your own ears is all that matters!
