Key Features
Acoustic Excellence & Driver Technology
-
The PX8 S2 are built around bespoke 40 mm drivers, engineered to deliver a natural balance between deep bass, clean mids, and articulate highs.
-
An advanced internal analog feed-forward noise control works alongside digital tuning to shape the acoustic signature, ensuring exceptional clarity even under passive listening conditions.
-
Internally, high-resolution DACs and signal processing preserve audio fidelity through every stage of the output chain.
Adaptive Noise Cancellation & Ambient Modes
-
Precise active noise cancellation (ANC) reduces low-frequency and mid-frequency interference while preserving tonal balance.
-
Adaptive behavior allows the system to adjust suppression dynamically according to surrounding sound levels and activity.
-
A transparency / ambient mode (also called “HearThrough”) lets external sound in, useful when you need situational awareness without removing the headphones.
Smart Connectivity & Multipoint
-
Utilizes Bluetooth 5.4 for a stable, low-latency wireless link.
-
Supports multipoint pairing, enabling simultaneous connections to two devices (e.g., phone + laptop).
-
The Bowers & Wilkins Headphones App lets you tune EQ, adjust ANC behavior, update firmware, and fine-tune listening modes to your preferences.
-
Touch-sensitive controls on the ear cups provide intuitive control over playback, volume, calls, and activating voice assistants.
Comfort & Build Quality
-
Over-ear design with plush memory-foam ear cushions and a softly padded headband ensures comfort during extended sessions.
-
The headband is constructed with carbon-fiber composite materials to balance strength with light weight.
-
The headphones fold flat for easier portability and storage.
-
Durable design suited for travel and daily use.
Battery & Charging
-
With ANC enabled, you can expect up to 30 hours of continuous playback on a full charge.

A quick 15-minute charge yields approximately 5 hours of listening time.

Full recharge (via USB-C) takes about 2 hours.
