As the smaller of the two 700 Series models to gain the Signature treatment, the 705 Signature keeps the combination of a 165mm mid/ bass driver made from the company’s own Continuum woven fiber and a 25mm carbon and aluminium dome tweeter. This is mounted in its own enclosure on top of the main cabinet in the manner of the more expensive B&W designs. Bass is augmented by a single large rear port supplied with a two-piece foam bung to help regulate the flow when used close to a rear wall. It also supports bi-wiring.
