Its cool, I am just in shock how good these Px7s2e sound compared to some of my other higher end and much more expensive headphones I have like my Dali io-12, and I only paid 100.00 for these on the used market! I am very happy with them! Good job Bowers and Wilkins! 💪💪 💪 besides build what do the P

Sennheiser. The momentum 4 and the newly released momentum 5 are realistically the best consumer sound bt headphone at a reasonable price. Unless you're looking to spend over a g note, in which case the focal bathy, sennheiser hbd630, and the Dali io-12 would be your go to

The metrics you have... no single headphone is the top of all of them. Arguably best audio quality, irrespective of price, are the Solitaire T and DALI IO-12.

That's actually true here in EU also, I'm just in a good situation right now. The Px8 are around 450€ and IO-8 is 700€. But when they were new, 007 Edition was 700€ euros, and now, local retail store is discounting Dali at 480€. I asked them why so cheap, they said it's their own try at bringing the

My tested recommendation: Get the Focal Bathys MG instead!The PX8 S2 reviews vs the actual experience are two different things I found. I ve been meaning to replace my Bang Olufsen H95 after 5 years. I had high hopes for the PX 8. they seemed to finally combine design and sound. I ve tried literally

Tested on Hi res lossless with Apple Music and with and without ANC. Hi res gives a boost in detail to my ears, but it’s not the jump I got when comparing Bathys or Dali IO-12 Bluetooth vs wired. They have a dedicated DAC for wired connections, where PX8 uses the same chip for both. I can’t say if A

The Dali sound amazing. But they have to be the most uncomfortable headphones I have ever tried. Ear cushions have a plastic rim inside them, making the cushions about 3-4mm at best in thickness. I couldn’t wear them for more than 10-15 mins without my ear lobes throbbing. Had to return them. Wish I

Dali IO-12 has good sized cups, lager than any other headphone I've ever used and they're still very comfy

He said Dali Io-8 not Dali Io-12, they are less expensive. I almost bought them (io-12), tried them out, they are heavenly, I put on the Io-8 headcups to make them smaller. I then realized I loved B&Ws sound so much more for casual listening at home and traveling. So I went from the PX8 to the PX8S2

So basically the Dali IO-8 in your country cost exactly the same as Dali IO-12 in my country. I always viewed PX8S2 as half a notch above Bathys, half a notch below Bathys MG, same notch as B&O H100 even though they are almost twice the price, Dali IO-12a whole notch above and IO-8 a while notch bel
