"Few headphones perfectly blend design, sound quality, and everyday utility. Sony's headphones sound great, Bose's headphones have great design qualities, and Apple's headphones perform remarkably well with other Apple devices. Conversely, brands like Focal, which offer headphones with exceptional sound quality and minimal digital features, have a $1,200 asking price and weaker noise-canceling capabilities. Still, to many people, the consumer-friendly sound of the most popular headphones isn't good enough -- they want an elevated sound without compromising the most valuable software features."
"You won't find faux leather or coated plastic finishes on the Px8 S2. Instead, the Px8 S2's headband and ear pads are covered in nappa leather, the aluminum yokes sport an exposed braided cable, and the earcups sport aluminum accents. The higher-quality materials not only give the Px8 S2 a more refined and elegant look compared to the Px7 S3, but they also enhance the Px8 S2's wearing experience."
Bowers & Wilkins focuses on combining high-quality audio with consumer-friendly software and design. The Px8 S2, the second-generation flagship, includes an upgraded Qualcomm chipset, improved noise cancellation, better wireless audio streaming, and new internal audio components. The Px8 S2 uses premium materials such as nappa leather headband and ear pads, aluminum yokes with exposed braided cable, and aluminum earcup accents. Those materials produce a more refined appearance and improved wearing comfort compared with the Px7 S3. The Px7 S3 previously excelled in sound, comfort, utility, and design. The Px8 S2 costs $320 more than the Px7 S3.
