Bowers & Wilkins PX8 (Black)

Description

Flagship wireless headphones that set the standard

The Bowers & Wilkins Px8 headphones stand at the top of an already impressive range. Combining exceptional audio performance, premium materials, intelligent technology and iconic style, the Px8s really are the best of the best.

Award-winning sound quality

At the heart of the Px8 is a high-resolution, 24-bit DSP (Digital Signal Processor). Combined with aptX Adaptive wireless technology, this means that you get the very best Bluetooth sound possible. As you’d expect from this premium audio company, the drive units are something special. Carbon-coned and angled towards your ears, the drive units deliver a sound that’s crystal-clear, accurate packed full of detail.

Outside noise – cancelled

Proof that not all ANC (Active Noise Cancelling) headphones are made equal, the Px8 cancels outside noise with outstanding precision. Six microphones work with Bowers & Wilkins’ proprietary noise cancelling technology for superb background noise suppression, without affecting the musicality. A further benefit is when making calls, your voice sounds clearer and less distorted to your caller.

Premium comfort

Befitting a flagship model, the Px8 uses premium quality materials. Cast aluminium arms contrast with Nappa leather trim for a luxurious aesthetic. Soft pads surround your ears and, because the arms supply just the right amount of pressure, you get the perfect balance of a snug fit, without feeling the pressure. They’re also lighter than many of their rivals, further improving their long-term comfort.

Control your headphones, with the Bowers & Wilkins Music app

Bowers & Wilkins’ Music app lets you access a range of handy features. From here, you can control the ANC level, check the battery level and set a standby timer. The latest revisions also introduce more tailored acoustic settings – including adjustments for bass and treble.

Extra-long battery life

With up to 30 hours of battery life, the Px8s easily have enough juice for a week or two’s worth of commuting. What’s more, this is Bluetooth and ANC activated, so you don’t have to go without noise isolation to get this battery life. If you’re in a hurry, just 15 minutes of charge is enough for seven hours of playback.
