The Px8 is a flagship wireless over-ear headphone from Bowers & Wilkins, sitting above the Px7 S2 with a wide bandwidth. The Px8 brings B&W's most accomplished current wireless headphone engineering to a closed, over-ear format.

Key specs that matter

The transducer uses dynamic driver technology in a closed, over-ear, wireless configuration. Frequency response spans a wide 10Hz to 30,000Hz within plus-or-minus 10dB. Impedance is 33 ohms at 1kHz. Weight is 0.320kg, close to the Px7 S2.

Sound and use context

Expect the accurate, refined character B&W's broader headphone catalogue is known for, with the wide 10Hz-30kHz bandwidth representing B&W's most accomplished current wireless headphone engineering.

Pairing

As a wireless over-ear headphone, the Px8 pairs directly with any Bluetooth-enabled device without needing a separate amplifier or DAC.

Alternatives

B&W's own Px7 S2 offers a more accessible alternative within the same broader wireless headphone catalogue.
