Just sensational headphones. I did loads of research and landed on these. Completely set. Build quality excellent, comfort great and noise cancellation does the trick. Main thing is the sound quality
Fancy a Bev Mate? –
WOW! I’ve not had this musical experience with headphones this GOOD since my byer dynamic open ear headphones since the late eighties! I’ve had sony XM3/4s and a few others over the years along with my current mobile in ear buds the brilliant Technics AZ100s…..I’ve just A/B tested the earbuds against these and I’m blown away by the difference.Now there is a caveat here stock equalizer the PX8 S2s sound to me flat I left the first two bands flat then dialed in 4.5/5/5.5 on the mids to high and they sound AMAZING. Remember that everyones ears are different so this works just for me.I would recommend you use a good source like Qbuz or other high resolution for your music to get the best out of these headphones but I have to say music I have never listened to in the past sound SO good I’m listening to genres I’ve never listened to before they are that good!Build quality is OFF the charts you will not be able to stop smelling and looking at your investment sorry I know its weird but they are simply stunning to look at and that smell……If you have the spare cash floating around and you want to invest in the best in class Treat Yourself Don’t Cheat Yourself!

After using for around two weeks now I can confirm these are the best headphones I’ve ever owned and worth the spend.My last pair of over ear headphones were Sony WH1000XM4 so another mid range NC which did an amazing job whilst travelling. However the sound quality for my ear was always a slight issue but that noise cancelling was so supreme the compromise was worth itDesign and build of the Px8 S2 is totally premium without question and they are light and comfortable for long listening with a low profile. If you are like me and into aesthetics as well as function, the attention to detail are what I’d expect at this price point compared to other brands. The accessories including case and cables are premium also so you won’t be disappointed.I’ve read a lot about the lack of detail with the B&W software app but personally it’s less fussy compared to my Old Sony’s and I kinda like that. Simply sometimes being beat but without lacking any of the fundamental sound features. I mean a 5 band EQ is enough for most people and as I understand B&W are looking to upgrade the software so in time like Sony this may expand further with more features?Sound wise these headphones offer range without failing. Bright highs, I’ve found the mid cut perfectly acceptable for my ear and the bass, just wow when set to your ideal…I’m currently listening to Spotify with lossless sound and it’s exquisite. The level of detail and noise on each track is something I’ve never heard with any of my other headphones.As all other reviewers will state the noise cancelling isn’t up to Sony’s standard but what the Px8 S2’s lack ever so slightly in noise cancelling the make up for in volume and overall clarity.I’ve not tried them wired as yet via my android phone but not am I likely to either so can and won’t commentYes they are pricey, but if you want a decent future proof pair of cans at a mid range price these have the pedigree and sound to matchI could rap for hours at how great these headphones are and I’ve compared to other mid-top end brands and by far these are my favourites for the reasons listed.If you have the money, test all in this class

These are a luxury product that built really well with high end Materials.The sound is the best of the best for the price and I think you really do get what you pay for when it comes to these headphones and can’t recommend them enough so if your budget can swing it just buy them.

Looks good. Sounds good. Long lasting. Super quality

🎧Tested both the PX8 S2 and PX7 S3 side-by-side.🎧Sound quality between the two is practically identical in normal everyday listening.🎧Listening on Spotify lossless, I could not hear any meaningful difference.🎧I guess if you use a super hi-res service like Tidal or Qobuz you may find some difference but if you don’t use those services the PX7 is likely to be sufficient.🎧Any improvements on the PX8 S2 are very subtle and only noticeable in ideal, critical-listening situations.🎧PX8 feels more premium (materials & build), but I found them slightly less comfortable, that could just be because my PX7s are more moulded to my head at this time🎧For the price difference, the PX7 S3 offers better value for everyday listening
Daniel Searle –
I will make this quick. These headphones are the best I have ever had and I currently own some other highly rated headphones and I have now stopped using them because the b&w Px8 S2 are so good. They are expensive but I went for it and I can honestly say they are worth every penny.

If your priority is audio quality, don’t think twice.Noise cancellation doing its job ok (not there with Bose etc)Excellent build quality as usual.

Si te los puedes permitir, valen el precio
Sonido espectacular, muy nítido en todas las frecuencias y excelente separación instrumental. Suenan de lujo eches lo que le eches (rock, jazz, clásico, rock, pop, etc.). “De serie” tienen los agudos demasiado acentuados para mi gusto y carecen de graves, pero con el ecualizador de la app de B&W pude corregirlo para que sonaran como a mí me gusta, dándole algo más de peso a los medios y los graves.Como referencia, suenan muy, muy similares (post-EQ) a los Focal Bathys (que para mí están en la cima nen cuanto a auriculares en este rango de precio), pero siendo mucho más discretos y menos pesados y aparatosos para llevar fuera de casa. Éstos ganan en nitidez y separación en los agudos, y los Bathys en contundencia de los graves y en sensación de amplitud, pero las diferencias (excepto en los bajos, donde los Focal ganan por goleada), son mínimas y más una cuestión de perfil sonoro.Mucha gente se preguntará si merece la pena el sobrecoste comparado con los PX7 S3, y en mi opinión, lo vale y de sobras (a menos que seas un loco de los graves). He leído muchas reseñas que afirman que la diferencia entre ambos es mínima y se reduce a “un pequeño incremento de nitidez”, pero en mi opinión, no hay color entre los dos: Compré primero los PX7 S3 y no me gustó su sonido: demasiado comercial/”en V”, con unos graves exagerados (pero excelentes para música electrónica) y unos agudos muy, muy marcados (sin llegar al terreno de la sibilancia, pero para mi oído, un tanto fatigantes). El problema es que aunque reduzcas los graves y los agudos en el ecualizador, le falta algo: queda un sonido demasiado frío, falto de carácter; tras escuchar un rato más, me di cuenta de que carecen de medios—esa sonido pleno y cálido que suele caracterizar a los altavoces de B&W. Así que los devolví y pedí éstos y no me arrepiento nada de nada.El sonido de los PX8 S2 es mucho más cálido, pleno, con “cuerpo” y equilibrado, además de más nítido y más matizado—se sienten como unos auriculares más refinados y enfocados a un público más exigente, que busca una experiencia más tipo audiófila—, mientras los PX7 S3 tienen un sonido más comercial, con esa afinación en V muy acentuada, más característica de Sony o Bose.En cuanto a calidad de construcción, es excelente, y efectivamente, más premium que los PX7 S3.La inclusión del códec Apt-X Lossless da ése extra de calidad sonora (siempre y cuando la fuente también lo soporte), y escuchar música sin pérdidas desde una plataforma tipo Tidal (o Spotify, ahora que tiene lossless) es una auténtica maravilla. Los recomiendo mucho.Lo único a tener en cuenta, los graves no compiten ni de lejos ni con los PX7 S3 ni los Focal Bathys (no digo que no los haya, subiéndolos en el EQ mejoran mucho, pero no pegan tan fuerte como en los otros y a mí no me importaría que fueran algo más contundentes); si ése es un factor importante, es algo a tener en cuenta.

De loin les meilleurs écouteurs que j’aie jamais achetés car conçu par et pour de vrais audiophiles
Le son est superbe, d’une définition excellente dans les aigues comme dans les basses. La qualité des details est d’une precision jamais entendue sur mes autres Apple, Sony Sennesheir. La précision et le sound stage donne un nouveau souffle à mon répertoire que je re découvre avec un immense plaisir! Il faut encourager les bons produits! ll surpasse les Appel Airpod Max qui est un casque de plomb (massif et lourd sur la tête et qui tiennent mal), au fonctionnement absurde et au son correct mais pas a la hauteur du PX 8 S2 qui lui, est conçu par de vrais audiophiles. Le PX 8 S2 est tres bien conçu, on est aux commandes grâce à ses touches manuelles et précises. Bien que plus lourd que les Sony, il est agile et tres confortable et solidement conçu. B&W propose le maximum d’options notamment avec un cable qui permet d’utiliser le casque lorsque la batterie est a plat, là ou Apple fait payer le prix fort sans la moindre option, selon la déplorable habitude de la marque. Excellent achat et s’il est plus cher que certains autres, la qualité le justifie largement selon moi qui cherche une qualité audio la meilleure possible.

Toller Premium-Klang, hoher Tragekomfort
Die Bowers & Wilkins Px8 S2 überzeugen mich vor allem mit exzellentem, ausgewogenem Klang und sehr hochwertiger Verarbeitung – echtes Premium-Gefühl durch Nappa-Leder und Aluminium. Die aktive Geräuschunterdrückung ist im Alltag sehr gut und lässt Musik richtig zur Geltung kommen. Mit bis zu 30 h Akku-Laufzeit und schneller Ladung bist du problemlos den ganzen Tag unterwegs. Die Möglichkeit, per App EQ-Einstellungen anzupassen, rundet das Erlebnis ab.Einziger Wermutstropfen ist der hohe Preis und, je nach Anspruch, dass die ANC-Leistung nicht ganz an die Sony/Bose-Spitzenmodelle herankommt.
Edgar Gonzalez –
Los PX8 S2 son Excelentes
B&W es una marca de alta gama, los materiales y acabados son excelentes y muy agradables a la vista y tacto. Son muy cómodos para usarlos por varias horas sin ningún problema, aíslan muy bien del exterior aún y sin usar su ANC. SONIDO: No soy un audiófilo, pero sí soy un melómano de toda la vida y puedo apreciar que tienen unos agudos muy detallados, cristalinos, sin ser excesivos ni cansados al escucharlos por mucho tiempo. Los medios son también muy claros, transparentes y con buena presencia aunque un poco atrás, pero nada que no se pueda adelantar con +1 ó +1.5 dB en el EQ de su APP. Los graves me parecen llenos de cuerpo y textura, precisos y rápidos, con muy buena presencia sin ser excesivos, permiten apreciar cada uno de los golpes que salen de la batería, así como unos subgraves que agregan gran profundidad. Las 5 bandas del EQ permiten adecuarlos a las preferencias de cada quien, a mi gusto, solo requieren pequeños ajustes de 1 ó 2 dB para disfrutarlos aun más que en su modo TrueSound. Cuenta con Codecs Bluetooth Lossless y eso es una gran diferencia en la calidad del sonido. ANC: Bien, pero un nivel abajo de Sony. Conclusión: Los PX8 S2 son Excelentes.

Fantastic soundstage, great comfort, excellent detail
I tried several different headphones that could be used wired (for better sound reproduction) and settled on the B&W. I have a Polestar 3 auto with the B&W system so I’m used to their sound signature.The Px8s are very comfortable. Not to tight, not loose. The AirPods Max felt like a vice-grip on my noggin.The soundstage is amazing. I find myself getting lost in the music hearing details not picked up by other headphones.The ANC is very good. It’s hard to beat Bose for ANC, but these are very close behind. The trade-off (if any) for the ANC is the amazing sound reproduction. I am coming from the Sennheiser Momentum 4s – great headphones, but I’m giving the edge to B&W.Sounds is very subjective -some prefer highs, other deep bass. The best headphones are the ones that sound best to you (same with speakers). I find the B&Ws check all of the boxes, especially when used wired. The Bluetooth (wireless) function works perfectly well – no cut-outs or static.I highly recommend these headphones.
