I have both, what you're describing is a personal taste, you do hear the compression in W3,tho i agree that there's something special about them, total missed opportunity on the codecs there.I just had a listening session with the px7. I would give the sound a 7.5/10. They are definitely good sounding (not great though).
The bass is plenty but a little boxy.
Not as detailed or clean as I like. Very warm and a little dark. Sounds like the mid and high treble is subdued somewhat.
I compared them to the momentum wireless 3 (EQ the slider slightly down and to the right to reduce the bass somewhat and open the soundstage). The momentum not only blew them out of the water but I don't recall hearing anything better EVER (sounded better than my 58x jubilee and fidelio x2, Sony hear.on 2, Bose qc35 ii, etc).
The bass is now clean, strong, and punchy. Great detail, soundstage, and instrument separation. Very natural sounding (real).
Just don't like how they look on my head (bulky).
PX7 is a bit more refined imho tho yes, bass sounds boxy
