#118 Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S2: $230.00 Discontinued Amazon eBay
Newer model: the Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S2e, ranked lower, rated 2.7/5, released Sep 2023 (also discontinued). See every Bowers & Wilkins Px7 generation.
Pros: Wireless features are strong, with active noise cancelling, Bluetooth 5.2 and a wide codec list including aptX Adaptive and aptX HD, plus a built-in microphone and about 30 hours of battery life. Sub-bass is about 5 dB above target and bass about 7 dB above, which gives plenty of rumble for bass-heavy music. The midrange from 1 to 6 kHz stays within about 1 dB of target, so voices keep their natural place.
Cons: The bass boost is large enough to overwhelm the low mids on some tracks, and a peak of nearly 7 dB near 8.7 kHz plus treble about 4 dB hot adds a bright, splashy edge to cymbals. It weighs 307 g, on the heavier side for long wear. The Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S2e has an equal rating but a smoother response. Discontinued.
