Audio46's Opinion
The uber-classy Bowers and Wilkins PX8 offers a spacious soundstage, energetic sub-bass, intimate vocals, colorful highs, strong active noise cancellation (ANC), and an elegant build. You'll get around 30 hours of playtime, and a quick 15-minute charge gives you seven hours of playback. Unlike so many other Bluetooth headphones in this price range, the Px8 provides a surprisingly open soundscape with natural placement of instruments and vocals, creating an immersive experience similar to high-quality wired closed-back headphones. The bass is deep and powerful, while the midrange has clarity and impact. The low-mids may lack some body for some listeners, but the upper mids shine, bringing vocals forward. The highs are present without being harsh, adding detail and crispness to the sound. It's quite a big leap in skill from the PX7, though an admittedly expensive one. But at the end of the day, Bowers & Wilkins is a luxury audio brand that whispers, "I've made it." Hence the price tag.

A new reference in headphones
We’ve never made a better headphone than Px8. A high-resolution 24-bit DSP is partnered with all-new driver technology to deliver outstanding resolution, capable of capturing nuances in your music that may otherwise be missed. This is headphone listening on all-new levels of immersion and realism.
Angled Carbon Cones
Px8’s precisely angled Carbon Cone drive units reduce distortion, resulting in massively improved clarity. Coupled to a fully optimized drive unit ‘motor system’, with revised magnet, voice coil and surround, the result is unparalleled accuracy and realism.
High-resolution sound with advanced DSP
Px8 uses aptX™ Adaptive wireless technology and powerful Digital Signal Processing to ensure outstanding 24-bit high-resolution sound quality from suitable streaming services. You can also connect to your laptop via USB to enjoy high-resolution streaming.
Cancel the noise, not your music

Comfort, for longer

B&W PX8’s are Epic
I’ve purchased all of my B&W gear here, I love picking up at the store and they’re always super quick and friendly.
B&W Px8
The Bowers & Wilkins Px8 sound good for the price.
Superb sound & comfort with excellent noise cancelling!
I've had these for about 3 weeks and couldn't be happier! I'd read and watched all online reviews and comparisons possible, and these are amazing. Right out of the box, I thought they were very good. But following another's advice, I gave them 100 hours of burn in, and they really came to life. At low volume listening they're great. But they really shine at higher volume, and remain clear, without distortion, with great sub-bass that's not muddy or bloated. The mids are perfect for all genres, and the highs & treble are crisp, without being harsh. I just completed a cross country flight, and using I found the noise cancellation to be outstanding! And they're extremely comfortable, and I've worn for hours on end without discomfort, hot spots, or sweaty ears. I've got an average size head, and I think the clamp force is perfect, keeping them in place securely, and I never feel like they're going to slide off. Don't take my word for it, read the online reviews. I find the value for the price to be spot on!
