Bowers & Wilkins are back with an update to its popular Px7 headphones.
The British audio experts at Bowers and Wilkins are releasing posh new cans. The popular Px7 wireless headphones were already regarded as some of the best wireless music makers in the business, and now they are getting even better.
The all-new Px7 S3 go on sale today and come packed with upgrades aimed at making them sound better, last longer and feel more comfortable once placed on your head.
Thanks to all of the changes, Bowers & Wilkins is boasting that these are now its most advanced wireless headphones yet.
So what do you get for your money?
Firstly, the design has been refined to help improve the feel and usability of these headphones. They now feature a slimmer form than previous models plus you get a new headband and redesigned arm mechanism that ensures the headphones fit even closer to your head. There’s even more luxurious earpads with improved memory foam for ultimate comfort.
Of course, these are headphones so the way they sound is hugely important – Bowers & Wilkins reckons it has that covered as well thanks to new 40mm biocellulose drive units which feature a redesigned and improved chassis, voice coil, suspension, and magnet. Almost everything has been built from scratch for the new Px7 S3 and there’s almost nothing copied over from the previous devices.
For the first time in a Bowers & Wilkins over-ear headphone, these high-resolution drive units are also powered by a dedicated, discrete headphone amplifier. This provides notably more scale and energy to the sound.
They are fully compatible with technology such as aptX Adaptive 24/96 wireless technology and the latest Qualcomm innovation, aptX Lossless.
For those not in the know, both of these technologies can automatically optimise wireless music transmission from compatible phones, tablets and computers, ensuring the best possible sound quality with high-resolution music streaming services such as Qobuz and TIDAL, both available to stream directly from the Music app.
Another first for Bowers & Wilkins headphones, is that the Px7 S3 will also offer support for spatial audio – which makes the sound appear as if it’s hitting your ears from all directions.
To boost the experience further and make sure you hear the music and nothing else, there’s also impressive Active Noise Cancelling (ANC), which can be switched on or off via a simple tap on the touch controls.
You’ll get 30 hours of battery life, fast charging, a tough carry case and the ability to adjust the sound to suit your tastes via an app.
You can grab the Px7 S3 from today in three colours – Anthracite Black, Indigo Blue and Canvas White – for £399.
Speaking about the launch, Giles Pocock, VP of Brand Marketing, said: “It’s been an extraordinary challenge for Bowers & Wilkins to develop new headphones able to exceed the exceptional performance and critical acclaim given to our current range.
“I’m thrilled that with the new Px7 S3, the team has not only risen to that challenge but has managed to set a new benchmark for excellence in the headphone category. I can’t wait to hear how they are received by our fans around the world.”
