    I've tested both the Px7s2e and the Px8 and while they are both excellent headphones, they are in fact significantly different. The Px7s2e is more neutral, the px8 is a little more boomy in the low end. I ended up buying the px8. Ive also tested the B&O headphones (both hx and p95) and the sennheiser monentums, both of which i found quite dull sounding. Beautifully neutral, but not exiciting enough for my ears. All in all: i fully recommend to just go listen in a store, because audio is really most of all a matter of preference. Note: I didnt have a chance to test the focal bathys, so im not sure how they are sounding in comparison.

    Thanks for this quality review! How do they perform when connected with usb-c, do they use the same internal DSP? And using that usb-c cable, what would be the best way to connect them to an older iPhone (with that old lightning output...)? Thanks!

      Thanks for your positive feedback - they perform really well when connected via usb-c - wired listening allows you to escape the limitations of bluetooth and get up to the max 24bit 48Khz the headphones are capable of (subject to your source material and device being of that quality) - a standard USB-C to lightening cable will not work. I guess the thinking is many people will just use bluetooth and of course from iphone 15, apple now using usb-c. So support for older iphones is not ideal - we recommend a lightening to 3.5mm dongle then the supplied 3.5mm to usb-c cable

      ....I loved my focal bathys until comparing them with my phillips Fidelio X2HR....both I was using Wired with my fiio btr7 set to ldac priority on sound quality and my H2HR Were Head and shoulders Better to my ears ....

    The PX8 was initially designed as 24bit/96khz using usb-c wire. It’s a pity that they had to adjust downwards to 24/48 to solve a noise problem.

    I tested the PX7 S2 and the Senny Momentum 4 and the Sony XM5. I like the PX7 S2 over the M4 for its punchier tight bass. The PX7 has disconnected 4 times during the week. M4 is a great choice, but volume did not go as high. XM5 speaker doesn't sound as good. Not worth the asking price of $400.

    • @tk4084
      @tk4084 Před měsícem

      I took the M4s back due to max volume being too low. i traded them in for the sony xm5s volume is much better but it doesnt sound as good as the m4s. i want to purchase another pair just for sound quality, not sure if i should get the m4s or the px7s2e. id pick up the px8s but a little too pricey.

    Which one is better? Px7 s2e or PX8? I usually listen acoustic songs, pop and sometimes i watch movies. How is the bass? Thank you.

      I am going to purchase my first premium pair of headphones and have fallen for B&W so I have gone back and forth between PX7S2E and PX8 for a few weekse now: my guess is that if you use your headphones at home or in an office setting, and you can afford it, go for PX8. An upgrade in sound quality when compared to PX7S2e, with that extra dose of premium because of the metal diamond cut finish.
      If you are travelling with your new headphones, I would suggest PX7S2E, because of simple fact that your headphones will have to endure more and I honestly feel more comfortable commuting with a model that's more budget friendly but with that B&W sound and class

      @@michelvangastel1727 thank you so much. I upgraded the replacement of my px7 to px8. Px8 is clearer in terms of sound but bass is more immersive on s2e. Px8 is tighter on bass.

    I have a pair of PX 7s2. The adhesive on the leatherette is atrocious and all the leatherette is coming off. I would avoid the cheaper model

    Save your cash. Px5 has much better mid range.
