Lucruri scumpe care chiar au meritat banii?
Haine: Exista o diferenta enorma de calitate intre brand-urile high quality si cele de mass market. Si ca sa fiu clar, nu e vorba de platit brandul. Dar tricourile de 400-500 de lei , intr-o culoare, fara logo, rezista mult mai mult decat cele din mass market. Eu sunt fan al bumbacului japonez si al

Joined the club with B&W PX8 S2 and Pi8 😍
I 1st got the pi8s and they made me buy the px8 s2s. I was using a pair of Audio-Technica ATH-TWX9s and there were very good, but then I read about the pi8s and I knew they will be something different. And they are, the sound is much warmer and for my taste. At home I use a pair of Meze 109pro, so t

Just ordered a pair of Pi8
I ordered them around a few months after they were released and gotta say the sound quality was stunning, especially when using the retransmission ability with the iPhone. But admittedly I did return them shortly after due to the size being a tad too big. But honestly I’d buy them again because the

Pi8 with Metal
I don't mean this to come across abrasive... but I listen almost exclusively to metal on comparable audio gear to the Pi8 or Px8 S2 (I'm a Sennheiser guy) and the separation and sound is awesome. B&W is very good, but I don't think they're a good choice for very busy music like Metal typically is. B

Pi8 5.0 - avoid updating?
First if all it's kind of shame for this kind of brand to try to fix serious feature issue like mics call after 2 years of the device first release, but B&W is famous for this kind of after sales policy. For the update now, I didn't have much time to see if they fix the call issue for good, a few ca

Looking for the best I can get for around $1500
Wired with a DAC is going to give you some of the highest fidelity. If you really want wireless and want to splurge, check out the Bang & Olufsen Beo Grace. There's also the Bowers and Wilkins Pi8 which are not bad either But going wireless means you are using an encoded codec which tweaks the bitra

PX8s2 Day 1 Impressions!
I own px7s3, and these are one of the best headphones I've ever had. They are even better than my B&O H95, which are much more expensive. I also own Pi8 - and these are the best in class eabuds. In general, I think Bowers & Wilkins currently produces the best value for money high-end headphones.

Shokz Open Pro 2 as cycling headphones
Yes, I can recommend as I'm into audio myself. What I have are the Bowers and Wilkins Pi8 and Noble Audio Fokus Rex5 TWS. Mind you these do cost a fair penny. I ride my bike with both.

Naughty things happening at Amazon (returns)
Yup I am also done with Amazon, I bought a pair of b&w pi8s that got so hot when wirelessly charging that they gave me a blister, I contacted b&w directly who were great but told me I had to contact Amazon directly for a repair but they gave me a reference number to give Amazon. So I sent the item b
