Bowers & Wilkins 607 S3 was £549 now £529 at Richer Sounds (save £20)
In our five-star B&W 607 S3 review, we called them "entertaining in spades" and "a delight". They set the bar high for clarity, refinement and detail, but also have plenty in the way of punch and dynamism to entertain. Ideal for a step-up system and for small rooms, these superb mid-price speakers originally launched at £599 and then dipped to £549 for the best part of this year – so this is a great new low price.

As we noted in our B&W 606 S3 review, "if you can afford and accommodate a step up above the compact 607 S3 speakers, want a larger scale of sound and need more oomph to your bass, the B&W 606 S3 will be more to your liking". These too are current Award winners, having picked up the Best Buy award as the 'Best standmount speaker £600-£800'. Bona-fide bargains now that they sit just below that price parameter.

Their unfussy, easy-going nature will work with a whole variety of systems and rooms. This lowest-price deal applies to all finishes.

Q Acoustics 3050i was £749 now £449 at Peter Tyson (save £300)
Ignore the fact that these floorstanders have been around for a good while – lots of the best products have. £300 off is a massive saving, and while we test the Q Acoustics 3050i at £649, they've often been listed at a more substantial price of £749.

Focal Vestia No.1 was £899 now £449 at Peter Tyson (save £450)
This is a sizeable discount on a very competent pair of speakers.

Focal Vestia No.2 was £2199 now £1099 at Peter Tyson (save £1100)
We've not tested the floorstanders from Focal's Vestia range, but it would be remiss of us not to flag these incredible deals that bring the price of premium floorstanders down considerably. These are imposing, elegant models that bring some of Focal's high-end technology to a more reasonable price point.
