Description

With the Bowers & Wilkins Px8 S2 Midnight Blue, you can enjoy your favorite music even more. These headphones have improved drivers. Thanks to this, the sound is extra clear and balanced. The high-end noise canceling reduces all the ambient noise. Thanks to this, you can completely close yourself off from your surroundings and focus better on your work, for example. The headphones use the aptX Bluetooth profile. This profile sends the music from your smartphone to the headphones with quality loss. Thanks to this, you can hear all details in a song. For example, musical instruments in the background. When the headphones are fully charged, you can listen to music for up to 30 hours. This means you don't have to charge them often.

Sleek design with great sound

I hear every detail
Full sound
Sleek design
Strong clamping force

With the Bowers & Wilkins Px8 S2, I hear clear, detailed sound. With noise canceling turned on, I can tune out my surroundings, allowing me to focus on work in the office. After a while, I feel the pressure of the headphones pressing against my ear.

Detailed sound With music featuring many instruments, such as jazz, I hear each instrument clearly. I find the sound deep and detailed, making it feel like I'm at a live concert. With pop music, I find the sound balanced. Vocals sound clear and distinct, yet I can also clearly hear the different layers in the background music. When I listen to podcasts or television programs, voices sound clear, allowing me to understand what's being said clearly.

Sleek design I think the headphones have a sleek design. The leather ear cushions are slightly springy, making them comfortable on my ears. The connection between the headband and the ear cushions feels sturdy, giving me the impression that the headphones will last a long time. There are control buttons on the earcups. I press these firmly. This turns the volume up or down. I also pause the music and control the noise canceling. The buttons are conveniently located on the earcups. I appreciate that I don't need my phone to operate them. The headphones have a strong clamping force, so they stay securely in place. When I walk briskly, I don't feel like they're falling off. I do notice a pressure feeling after wearing them for a few hours.

Strong noise canceling

With noise canceling turned on, I hear almost nothing of my surroundings. I don't hear the noise on public transport or in the office. If someone calls me at the office, I hear it softly. With Transmissive mode, I hear what's happening around me very clearly, because the headphones amplify the ambient sound. I use this setting when I'm cycling because I want to pay attention to what's happening around me.

Superbly detailed sound.

Detailed sound
Good soundstage
Deep, tight bass

The headphones are very comfortable and have a beautiful sound. I found the PX8 to be very mediocre, but the S2 exceeds my expectations.

Review is 9,6 out of 10.

Highly recommended. There is nothing better, but there is so

Built like a tank
The sound is top-notch.
Unfortunately, I don't have two.

Instead of "plastic fantastic," a solidly designed pair of headphones for a change. Metal—and yes, if it's still allowed to be said—real leather for the headband and ear cups. They don't make me sweat, feel very comfortable, and I can wear them for hours on end. And they sound... Like no other. I've had the Focal Bathys, QC Ultra, and the Sennheiser HDB630. They are all top-notch in their segment, but with these PX8 S2, I truly experience the music again: they put a smile on my face, and I unconsciously tap my foot along to the beat. I am incredibly happy with them; they have barely left my head these past few days.
