Moved from the PX8 to the HDB 630

Thanks I think I will get PX8 as I am looking for bass heavy headphones for trance & techno. Looks were important for me also hence multiple brands did not make the cut. I like how B&W look all premium plus if bass is strong then matter settled. Alternate is Apple Airpods Max as again looks good but

Stuck between the B&W Px8s2 and Dali IO-8

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

I am considering buying Px7 S3, upgrading fromSong xm5

I will always stick with the Px8 and hope B&W makes a U Turn and steers away from the default sound signature of the Px7 S3 and Px8 S2.

Do I switch from px8 to px7s3?

I think I know what OP‘s referring to. The PX8 have a rather intimate „dark“ sound signature which can easily make songs sound less existing and more closed in. They are indeed detailed sounding headphones and have an instinct clearness to them I can’t quite place but the bass bleeds too much into t

Considering the Px8 S2 as an early birthday present to myself, few questions

Exactly! I actually bought the PX7 S3 before the PX8 S2, and returned them. The base was wonderful but the sound was way too consumer-friendly/V-shapedthe treble was overbearing for my taste and they were lacking mids and warmth, and no amount of EQ correction seemed to get them sounding as full an

PX7 S2e App – Disappointing Experience

Does it have any wind noise reduction feature? I can’t find any setting for it. Also, I’m a bit surprised by how arrogant some people are being. I’m coming from the Sennheiser Momentum 4, and before that the Sony XM4—both of which have a lot more settings in their apps. And no, I didn’t buy these be
