Well, I never thought the day would come, but it looks like these will be my first pair of BT-NC cans!

Kudos to B&W!

Curious how these compare to their brilliant P7W soundwise...

 

[y2jdmbfan]

Well, I couldn't help myself, ordered a pair direct from B&W. Would have shipped today, but got flagged for fraud for some reason. Cleared it up now. Should ship tomorrow. My lightly used PXC 550 will probably be going on the block.

I wonder if this replaced the P7 wireless? The P7 is no longer on Bower's and Wilkin's website.

If it does replace the P7 wireless I wonder if it performs better the P7 wireless...

According to various websites, sonically it should be somewhere between P7 and P9. Its internal codename was P8 at least. The What Hifi review seems to hint that it's indeed an improvement over the P7.

So I ordered it.. Should be in tomorrow

Looking forward to your reviews. What I found online was just a load of BS and recycled press releases without any effort added to it looks like most "reviewers" couldn't be bothered to review it, really...

More contenders in the BT-NC cans ring. It’s going to be interesting to see how they’ll go against Bose QC35, Sony 1000 and Beats Studio 3. From the reviews it looks like the sound is their biggest strength, however there are few reviews which are not so positive.

I agree with @zviratko - reviews are mostly looking like copy/paste press releases. Maybe it’s just too early. If PXs will turn out to play so well then I’ve finally found the right pick.

I look forward to your review, if you do one.......according to 'Trustedreviews' B&W toned down the warmth from the P7W, which can only be a good thing, for my ears at least as I felt they really over cooked it in those.

I'm gonnna wait for some kind of reduction before I try them........maybe from B&W outlet in a few months time.

Interesting so sounds like an improvement then over the P7 wireless. I wonder how it scales up if wired with an external amp? So far I have my P7 (non wireless) running through a Dragon Fly Red on my iPhone and am liking it very much.

I might need to put up my P5 and P7 up for sale.

Uh-oh....

If this is true maybe I should just pick up a P7 wireless before they are gone.

The same website rates the P7 wireless pretty well... hmmm

Did you get a tracking number?

50hrs Wired/No ANC, which means these cans cannot be run passively. A look into the manual confirms this. Interestingly it can not only use the 3.5mm wired connection but also the USB-C socket for Audio apparently. I will wait for some measurements.

Note: Your PX headphones need to be charged
and switched on to play audio using a jack or
USB cable connection

slightly lame. I assume they want go make sure it sounds the way it does on all devices.

Something strange about that review. Also, your link is bad.

Thanks. Fixed it.

And yeah, the PCMag reviewer may have gotten a bad, glitchy one. It happens.

All the other reviews and impressions seem to be very positive. We shall see.
