£699 FROM Bowers & Wilkins, bowerswilkins.co.uk FEATURES 240W amplifier, 2x 25mm double-dome tweeters, 2x 90mm mid-range drivers, 1x 150mm subwoofer, 35Hz-24kHz frequency response, AirPlay 2, Bluetooth 5.0 (aptX), 1x USB-C port (service only), 210x650x194mm, 6.5kg

And the unit is as good-looking and well made as ever.
