A modern classic

You may have seen Nautilus™ from B&W, the shell-like loudspeaker that propelled sound reproduction - and hi-fi aesthetics - into a completely new sphere. You might even know someone who has invested in a pair. If you do, and you’ve heard them in action, the experience will have stayed with you.

Now many of the widely admired ideas that went into Nautilus™ can be found in loudspeakers that you won’t have to shell out for. The hi-fi and home cinema speakers in B&W’s 600 Series 3 harness Nautilus™- derived technologies to deliver your music or film soundtrack with top-end precision and colour.

The latest 600 Series features an array of drive unit improvements across the range, plus

abrand new entry-level floorstander. And there is now a choice of three dedicated subwoofers, engineered to colour-match the rest of the range and designed to generate deep bass from rugged, compact, low-distortion cabinets.

Our 600 Series of hi-fi and home cinema speakers has represented, for a decade, unbeatable value for money. Its sales, not to mention its numerous awards and accolades, have recognised the fact. The 601s from Series 1 and Series 2 were voted Speaker of the Year by What Hi-Fi magazine in 1996 and 1999 respectively. Today, that inheritance of affordable technical superiority and exceptional design is embodied in the 600 Series 3.
