Just when it seemed wireless audio had reached its peak, Bowers & Wilkins has redefined the category. The new Px8 S2 headphones are not just an update to their celebrated flagship; they are a profound statement in engineering and design, solidifying their position as the reference in luxury personal audio.
At the heart of the S2 is an obsession with "True Sound." Bowers & Wilkins has completely re-engineered the acoustic system. The new 40mm Carbon Cone drivers feature an upgraded motor system, voice coil, and suspension. This new design delivers a faster, more controlled, and even lower-distortion performance. Paired with a new, high-performance 24-bit Digital Signal Processor (DSP), the Px8 S2 reveals layers of detail and a sense of realism that was previously unattainable in a wireless headphone.
Smarter technology meets superior sound. The audio prowess is backed by a full suite of upgraded tech. The Px8 S2 now features aptX Lossless support with Bluetooth 5.3, enabling true 24-bit/96kHz high-resolution audio from compatible sources. The active noise cancellation is also drastically improved, now utilizing a new eight-microphone array (up from six) to more intelligently and effectively silence the outside world without impacting musicality. That new mic system, combined with ADI Pure Voice technology, also means your voice calls are crystal clear, even in noisy environments.
It’s an experience you can feel. Of course, a B&W flagship is as much about the materials as the sound. The Px8 S2 is wrapped in sumptuous Nappa leather and built upon a robust die-cast aluminum frame. The design has been thoughtfully refined for a slimmer, more comfortable profile, while the B&W Music App now unlocks a five-band equalizer for precise audio tailoring.
