New Px8 Headphones

According to brand representatives, the new Px8 will be headphones with the best sound among Bowers & Wilkins models. The Px8 features brand new carbon drivers created based on technology used in the tweeters of the 700 series speakers.

Features:

  • Improved sound quality, design, and finish.
  • Custom-made carbon diffusers located at an angle inside each earpiece to minimize distortion and improve sound resolution.
  • New materials: cast aluminum arches, shiny metallic details with diamond-cut finish, and Nappa leather trim.
  • Updated Bowers & Wilkins Music app with streaming capabilities from popular services.

The carbon diffuser enhances resolution, detail, and sound accuracy. The drivers are positioned at an angle in the earpieces to create a natural sound perception effect, as if listening to a speaker system. The Active Noise Cancellation algorithm (ANC) in the Px7 S2 and Px8 is based on the same patented noise cancellation system as the Px7, already considered one of the best on the market. It does not distort or alter sound characteristics while blocking out surrounding noise.

The microphone positioning in the Px8 has been changed compared to predecessors to improve call quality. There are a total of six microphones: two measure noise in the ear cups, two handle ambient sound, and two ensure clear voice transmission during calls. The revised microphone placement allows for better voice capture and more efficient wind noise management.

The headband construction has also been improved to provide greater comfort during long listening sessions. The fit of the ear cups has been enhanced for people who wear glasses. The clamping force and ear cushion design have been optimized for comfortable wearing with glasses.

Control and customization of the Px8 are available in the Bowers & Wilkins Music app. Users have access to an equalizer for sound adjustments, as well as control over noise cancellation modes and transparency.

Package includes:

  • Headphones
  • 1.2m stereo USB-C to 3.5mm cable
  • 1.2m USB-C to USB-C cable
  • Carrying case
  • Documentation.
