Bowers & Wilkins PX8

Bowers & Wilkins PX8 review

The Bowers & Wilkins PX8 are the pinnacle of B&W's over-ear headphone offering, and the sound here raises the bar yet again in the world of wireless listening. Where to begin? Probably with the oodles of detail, agility and expanse on offer, all underpinned by a gloriously weighty bass. The effective (if not jaw-dropping) ANC and solid suite of features completes a compelling proposition from B&W. They’re also incredibly good-looking – and the 30-hour battery means they'll last the whole day.

The best wireless headphones for 2023: which should you buy?

Look, I agree with you. $699 — oh c’mon, who am I kidding, $700 — is a lot to pay for a set of wireless headphones, even if they are the Px8, the new flagship of the Bowers & Wilkins (B&W) personal audio lineup. The truth is once you start to head north of $400, the improvements to sound quality start to taper off and it becomes more about design, materials, and — in a sense — the whole “premium-ness” of the experience. But if that’s what you seek — a set of wireless headphones that epitomize sophistication, performance, and class — the B&W Px8 will wrap your head in luxury. The Px8 initially were set to sell for $549. That’s still pricey by most standards, but only $150 more than the $399 B&W Px7 S2, a set of wireless headphones that share a ton of DNA with the Px8. That would have put them on par with the Apple AirPods Max, within spitting distance of the $599 Master & Dynamic MW75, and made them considerably more affordable than the $800 Focal Bathys and $899 Bang & Olufsen Beoplay ...
