Bowers & Wilkins Px8

A new reference in headphones

We’ve never made a better headphone than Px8. A high-resolution 24-bit DSP is partnered with all-new driver technology to deliver outstanding resolution, capable of capturing nuances in your music that may otherwise be missed. This is headphone listening on all-new levels of immersion and realism.

Angled Carbon Cones

Px8’s precisely angled Carbon Cone drive units reduce distortion, resulting in massively improved clarity. Coupled to a fully optimised drive unit ‘motor system’, with revised magnet, voice coil and surround, the result is unparalleled accuracy and realism.

High-resolution sound with advanced DSP

Px8 uses aptX™ Adaptive wireless technology and powerful Digital Signal Processing to ensure outstanding 24-bit high-resolution sound quality from suitable streaming services. You can also connect to your laptop via USB to enjoy high-resolution streaming.

Cancel the noise, not your music

Px8's proprietary noise cancellation technology ensures outstanding performance with no impact on musicality. Six microphones work together to deliver the best results, both for noise cancellation and clearer voice calls.

Comfort, for longer

Cast aluminium arms and fine Nappa leather trim leave you in no doubt that Px8 is a headphone every bit as special as it sounds. And with 30 hours of listening from a single charge you can enjoy the experience for over a day at a time.

Features

• A new reference in headphones
  Px8 combines its high-resolution 24-bit DSP brain with all-new 40mm Carbon Cones that deliver outstanding resolution. By reducing distortion and improving high-frequency detail, the carbon cone captures nuances in your music that other headphone drive units miss – and in Px8, that means more of the music that matters, more of the time.
• Angled Carbon Cones
  Px8 uses a new and breakthrough drive unit technology: the Carbon Cone. The stiffer carbon-fibre cone reduces distortion compared to a standard headphone drive unit, resulting in lower noise on the cone and massively improved clarity. Coupled to a fully optimised drive unit ‘motor’ system’, with revised magnet, voice coil and surround, the result is unparalleled accuracy from a headphone drive unit.
• High-resolution sound with advanced DSP
  Px8 uses aptXTM Adaptive wireless technology to automatically optimise wireless music transmission from suitable phones, tablets and computers. Coupled to powerful Bowers & Wilkins-developed DSP (Digital Signal Processing), the result is outstanding 24-bit high-resolution sound quality from suitable streaming services. Connect to your laptop via USB, and you’ll enjoy just the same high-res quality.
• Cancel the noise, not your music
  Px8 uses a total of six microphones for outstanding noise cancellation performance that shuts out unwanted intrusions yet does no harm to your favourite music’s dynamics and energy. Careful positioning and angling of those microphones ensures outstanding call quality too, even in noisy environments.
• Comfort, for longer
  PX8 features luxurious materials and purposeful design. Its cast aluminium arms are supremely light and stiff for superior durability: its sumptuous Nappa leather combines with perfectly crafted memory foam earpads to provide effortless all-day comfort plus supreme durability. Diamond-cut bright metal detailing perfectly finishes the luxurious, premium look.
• Bowers & Wilkins Music App
  The Bowers & Wilkins Music App puts you in full control. Use it to pair your headphones to your preferred devices, adjust the sound EQ to your preferences, adjust the noise cancelling transparency mode to let in more or less of the outside world and monitor your charge levels. Physical controls on each earcup ensure you’ll always be in control even if your phone isn’t readily to hand.
