#119 Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S2e: $344.83 Discontinued Amazon eBay
Older model: the Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S2 (ranked higher, rated 2.7/5). See every Bowers & Wilkins Px7 generation.
Pros: Active noise cancelling, Bluetooth 5.2 with SBC, AAC, aptX, aptX HD and aptX Adaptive, a built-in microphone and about 30 hours of battery cover the wireless essentials. The response is smoother than the Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S2, with the largest peak only about 3 dB near 11.9 kHz and treble within 1.5 dB of target. Presence and upper mids sit within about 1 dB of target, so voices sound natural.
Cons: Sub-bass is about 6 dB over target and bass about 5 dB over, so the low end is heavy and can mask the lower midrange, which is itself about 1.6 dB warm. A dip of nearly 7 dB near 9.7 kHz softens cymbals and sibilance. At 307 g it is on the heavier side. Discontinued.
