HDB630 Pros and Cons

They feel INSANELY cheap. Way more than anything else I've had but the XM6. The plastic isn't good and most of them creak to some extent (even if it isn't noticeable when you wear them, and I've tried 4 pairs). This is definitely part of the give and take aspect of ANC headphones. If you want better

P100 SE current state

I’ve owned many « high-end » bluetooth headphones over the last 2 or 3 years, including the Sennheiser Momentum 4, Bose QC Ultra Gen 1 and 2, B&W Px7 S2e, B&W Px7 S3, B&W Px8 S1 and S2, Beoplay H95, Focal Bathys, Sony XM5, and several others… Right now, the Cambridge Audio P100 SE offer by far the b

PX8 S2 Longevity and durability. Extended Warranty? How long will these last me?

I own a couple of B&W headphones — P7 Wireless (2016), P9 Signature (2016), Px8 OG (2023), Px7 S3 and latest Px8 S2. My P7 Wireless and its original battery are over 9 years old, in mint condition and still sound amazing besides its dated tech. Same with newer Px8 OG, it’s approaching 3 years and ha

PX7s3 vs PX8s2 (I went with 7)

I made the same decision after testing both, side by side. The materials and build quality of the PX8 S2 are exceptional. I've owned most of B&W's over ear lineup, and these recent releases are by far their best to date. However, the decision came down to performance. The PX8 S2 is inarguably more c

Yes another one of these (px8 vs px8 s2) just here me out.

I compared the bose qc ultra 2nd gen, Sony xm6, b&w px8 and b&w px7 s3 i had the bose and sony at home for some days and then went to a store to compare the b&w So for noise cancell

Should I buy PX7 S3 or PX8?

I don't know if you already made your decision, but I own the PX8 and they are great. The sound is excellent and warm. It made me want to listen to old songs all over again. And the DAC mode is amazing when connected with USB C device (MacBook Pro, Samsung Galaxy Fold 6 & iPhone 15 wired wired have

Getting lost in the codec and DAC discussion

If someone has a better answer please fill in but to my understanding: If you’re on an iPhone 13 mini + Tidal, the codec stuff (AAC, aptX, etc.) doesn’t really matter — iPhones only do AAC over Bluetooth, and both PX7 S3 and PX8 handle that fine. Sound quality differences you’ll notice are more abou

New addition, PX8 S2

How I hear the Px8 S2 compared to Px7 S3, Px8 S2 has a more colored and warmer sound signature tuning with its elevated mid bass, while maintaining clarity and details, and wider soundstage than OG Px8. Depending on the genre of music you listen to, the elevated lower mids can muddy instrument separ

Px8 S2 vs Px7 S3 vs HDB 630 in simple setup with Iphone

I'm planning to replace my old sony xm4 with a new one as well. Didn't quite like the xm5 or xm6 for build quality and comfort, so I've shortlisted bose qc ultra 2, b&w px8 s2 (wasn't leaning towards the px7 s3 as it uses vegan leather which isn't as long lasting as the real one) and the Sennheiser

PX7 S3 (£284) vs PX8 S2 (£504)

I owned both sets and kept the PX7 S3. The ANC in the PX8 S2 certainly isn’t terrible and is roughly on par with the HDB 630s; but the tangible improvement to ANC and transparency that the PX7 S3 brings to the table compared to the marginal improvement in sound quality the PX8 S2 provides made the P
