I feel the same way. I'm constantly thinking about how damn good the PX7 S3 are, so of course I want the PX8 S2 because it's the polished version of it. If even a small discount comes, I could get weak. You can hardly get closer to perfection when it comes to Bluetooth ANC headphones. The PX8 S3 wou

I sold my XM6 in favour of the Px8 S2. I was forever in the EQ trying to make it not sound like a muddy mess. If sound quality is what you're after then absolutely go for it. The B&W are bassy, like the XM6, but they also carry detail, and the bass is a lot tighter. Px7 S3 or PX8 S2 depending on bud

Dunno about the Dali but here is my unbiased opinion on the PX8 S2: I’ve had them for a month now and I’ve tested various tracks (Lossless, on USB C and Bluetooth via an iPhone). I’ve also had a pair of Bose QC Ultra Gen2 (which I have decided to return after buying the B&W). EQ and Sound This is a

My Bang & Olufsen H6 2nd generation are some of my favorite headphones for music. B&O Beoplay H6 g2 were one of my favorite B&O's too, which I still own—9+ years. I also own Px8, Px8 S2, B&O H95 and previously Px7 S3. If you're considering something not neutral, you may like Px8 S2. It's sound signa

Not the looks deceive you.... Remember, the new Px8 s2 has the same carbon cone driver which is one kind of drivers B&W only use on their high end speakers... They tried to implement this carbon cone on the Px8 and that was exceptional imo. I had chance to listen to Px8 a month ago... I must say, th

I was just like you — I also use the DT 700 Pro X and DT 1990 Pro and generally love Beyerdynamic’s headphones, so I had high hopes. I ended up buying the Aventho 300, used them for about 9 months, and eventually sold them. I could live with the ANC being “okay” — and for what it’s worth, even after

Id say for vocals and instrumental music like saxophones and strong hihats and stuff, go for bang and olufsen and yes bass could be tweaked too in equalized but its not a 5 band slider like bowers and wilkins, rather easier but not as helpful, but if im right they havent updated their newest line of

I am not an AudioPhile. I like bass and sound quality at the same time. Devialet Phantoms are the best speakers so far, but I am done with speakers. I will buy B & W Px8 S2, this monster next. Maybe Pi8 too. AudioPhiles, your insults are so weak and laughable. 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
