I bought them a year and a half ago aprox, and dont ask why, but I also own Airpods Max, XM5, QC Ultra, Airpods Pro 2, XM4 and have tried regular QCs and Sonos Ace. My favorite sounding headphones have been the Airpods Max and the Momentum 4, specially with sound personalization, though, the Momentu

I think the PX7 S2e is currently the sweet spot in the B&W range. Picked mine up for £200 then other day. They are sublime. If your look carefully at reviews in conjunction with the frequency response of the different B&W headphones currently available, the PX7 S2e has the "best" FR of any of them i

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

I also own a couple of B&W headphones – P7 wireless, P9 Sig, and briefly PX8 (returned due to issues) – including Apple APM (lighting and USB-C), B&O (H6 G2, H95, H100), and more. Received my XM6 earlier this week and I think they're great, especially coming from my old XM3 – big improvement in soun

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

Device connectivity for Apple users is certainly better with APM. I bought the B&W Px8 S2 and have been A/B comparing the APMs.. if you have more than 2 Apple devices (apple TV, etc) just put on the APMs (or AirPods etc). with B&W you get last 2 connected so i have to manually connect often (but I h

I have an PX7 S3 and APP and used to have XM2. I don't own but tested XM5 and XM6. I can confirm the APP, XM5 and XM6 have better ANC than PX7S3 - XM5 and XM6 are substantially better. i did not compare XM2 to B&W directly but judging from my memory I would say they are pretty similar in ANC perform

Wait oe more year or two till the px8 s2 gets cheaper, till then get a cheaper px7 s3 . For the pricetag of a px8 s2 i would recommend to buy a hifiman arya stealth which is really worth the price and have no end of life because degradation of battery after some years of use. Yeah i know that from f

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
