- The American price is $ 449 – we gave them 5 stars in our review
In the battle for the best headphones, Sony and Bowers & Wilkins are at the top of our list – and both pairs, we think that the B&W headphones sound better than the Sonys. And now they are available so that American customers can order, having already launched elsewhere around the world.
Bowers & Wilkins PX7 S3 headphones are available on order from today and will start to ship in a few weeks on June 10. We think they are the best premium headphones that you can buy right now – you can read our FIVED STAR BOWERS & WILKINS PX7 S3 review to deepen why.
The Sony prices increase on the new Sony Wh -1000XM6 lighter compared to the previous model means that the B&W pair is the same price as them – but the B&W have a clear advantage on sound quality.
What is so great in Bowers & Wilkins PX7 S3?
To be fair towards Sony, the cancellation of the active noise of the XM6 is better – although the ANC du B&W is very good. But if you are serious about sound, B&W cans are the best purchases.
The B&W PX7 S3 headphones offer really exceptional sound, and as we have said in our examination, the only thing we can imagine being improved in future versions is the removal of wind noise. This testifies to the quality of B&W PX7 S3 sound that we had to go so deep to find something to complain.
In our review, we praised the unity and the singularity of the presentation in all genres, which we listen to Aphex Twin or Aretha Franklin. As my colleague Simon Lucas explained: “In addition to the impeccable tonal balance, the PX7 S3 recovers and contextualizes a huge quantity of fine details, which does not contribute to the feeling of a complete and not explained records of the recordings.”
On the technological level, you look at Bluetooth 5.3 with adaptive Aptx and lossless Aptx, 40 mm of biocellulose conductors with discreet amplification and up to 30 hours of battery life with ANC. Bluetooth Audio and Auracast are promised to arrive soon in a free firmware update, as is space audio.
Bowers & Wilkins PX7 S3 are available on order now on Bowerswilkins.com for $ 449. In the United Kingdom, the PX7 S3 generally costs £ 399, but we have spotted certain offers bringing them to £ 365 already.
