There aren’t many hi-fi speaker deals worth shouting about this Prime Day, but these Bowers & Wilkins floorstanders are cheaper than ever before
Feeling tempted by a £500 discount on the B&W 603 S3?
Wasn’t it Joni Mitchell who said, “you don’t know what you’ve got ’til it’s gone”?
We can be fairly certain she wasn’t talking about Prime Day deals back in 1970, but with a reduction like this on a decent pair of floorstanding speakers, we are feeling inclined to heed her advice, anyway.
The B&W 603 S3 are currently at a Prime Day discount of £500, available for £1499 from Sevenoaks, Peter Tyson and Richer Sounds.
Whats more, you can pick up a 3m run of QED XT25 Speaker Cable (worth £70) for free by signing up to Rewards by Sevenoaks. Blessedly, sign-up is completely free.
In previous sales, these speakers have sold out fast, so we recommend acting quickly if this sounds like the bargain for you.
The Bowers & Wilkins 603 S3 floorstanders are sizeable, well-constructed speakers that will have no trouble filling a room. Their combination of a 25mm titanium-dome tweeter, 15cm midrange cone and 16.5cm paper bass driver produce a weighty sound with plenty of punch. This latest deal finds them at their lowest price to date.

The 603 S3 are the largest and most costly speakers in Bowers & Wilkins’ 600 series. They use a titanium-dome tweeter, B&W’s custom 15cm Continuum midrange cone, and a pair of 16.5cm paper bass drivers to deliver a “robust” and “full” sound.
With a more powerful motor assembly for their midrange driver, which uses a vibration-suppressing foam in pursuit of purer, clearer sound, the 603 S3 have seen tech trickle down from B&W’s more expensive 700 series.
It is worth noting that these are some formidably proportioned speakers. Measuring 102cm tall, they are ideal for anyone looking to fill a room with an attractive, if bulky speaker set-up.
Thankfully, we feel the B&Ws warrant the space they take up. In our review of the 603 S3, we say that the drive and power of these speakers would “please anyone looking for their music to enjoy a whole load of weight and muscle”.
Throughout testing, they provided detail and nuance, while also contributing clarity, focus and robust bass. These speakers showed no shortage of authority and control.
However, we awarded the 603 S3 four stars at review, due to the superior dynamism of the similarly priced PMC Prodigy 5.
But the Prodigy 5 are still selling for £1995 – and that, to our mind, puts the Bowers & Wilkins ahead as a significantly more affordable option.
If you’re looking for a large set of speakers with a similarly substantial sound, the 603 S3 just might be the pair for you. They are available for £1499 from Sevenoaks, Peter Tyson and Richer Sounds.
