The James Bond Bowers & Wilkins Px8 007 Edition headphones unite two icons of British style and performance. As elegant and timeless as the world-famous secret agent himself.
The Bowers & Wilkins Px8 007 Edition headphones unite two icons of British style and performance. As elegant and timeless as the world-famous secret agent himself, these special-edition headphones deliver the high-performance wireless sound synonymous with Bowers & Wilkins’ flagship headphones.
Commemorating the Diamond Anniversary of 007, the Px8 007 Edition is finished in Midnight Blue Napa leather, celebrating the dinner jacket worn by James Bond in his first on-screen appearance, in 1962’s Dr. No. Beyond the exclusive leather and premium metal detailing, the headphones also feature the classic 007 logo on top of the earcup and an exclusive red power slider. Px8 007 Edition’s Bond references are as discreet as the great spy himself. The acoustically transparent material protecting the drive units in each earcup boasts a screen print of the iconic Gun Barrel design featured at the start of so many incredible Bond movies.
With the Bowers & Wilkins Music app you can stream your favourite songs direct to your Px8 007 Edition, browse our suggested playlists, or let us suggest new tunes for you. We support Qobuz, Tidal and Deezer at launch, with more to follow, but whatever you play, you’ll hear the True Sound of the performance – because for us, there’s no other way to listen.
Bowers & Wilkins PX8 is built around a 24-bit wireless platform optimized for high-resolution music streaming. Its carefully angled 40mm drive units are engineered to even higher standards: thanks to its innovative new Carbon Cones, PX8 can capture those crucial musical details that other headphones simply miss. Combining outstanding quality with brilliant noise cancellation, call clarity and smart feature set, including up to 30 hours of wireless listening. Cast aluminum arms, fine Nappa leather trim, and diamond-cut bright edge detailing.
A new reference in wireless headphones
Px8 combines its high-resolution 24-bit DSP brain with all-new 40mm Carbon Cones that deliver outstanding resolution. By reducing distortion and improving high-frequency detail, the carbon cone captures nuances in your music that other headphone drive units miss – and in Px8, that means more of the music that matters, more of the time.
Cancel the noise, not your music
Px8 uses a total of six microphones for noise cancellation performance that shuts out unwanted intrusions yet does no harm to your favourite music’s dynamics and energy. Careful positioning and angling of those microphones ensures outstanding call quality too, even in noisy environments.
The new leader in headphone design
PX8 features luxurious materials and purposeful design. Its cast aluminum arms are supremely light and stiff for superior durability, while its sumptuous Nappa leather combines with perfectly crafted memory foam earpads to provide effortless all-day comfort plus supreme durability. Diamond-cut bright metal detailing perfectly finishes the luxurious, premium look.
Smart, intuitive, effortless
Px8 uses the Bowers & Wilkins Music App to set up your preferred level of noise cancellation transparency or adjust your EQ preferences. Launch your phone’s voice assistant at the touch of a button. And, with 30 hours of battery life, you can listen all day long – and more – on just one charge.
Carbon Cones
Inspired by Bowers & Wilkins’ award-winning 700 Series loudspeakers, Px8 uses a new and breakthrough drive unit technology: the Carbon Cone. The stiffer carbon-fibre cone reduces distortion compared to a standard headphone drive unit, resulting in lower noise on the cone and massively improved clarity. Coupled to a fully optimised drive unit motor system, with revised magnet, voice coil and surround, the result is unparalleled accuracy from a B&W headphone drive unit.
High-resolution sound with advanced DSP
Px8 uses aptX Adaptive wireless technology to automatically optimise wireless music transmission from suitable phones, tablets and computers. Coupled to powerful Bowers & Wilkins-developed DSP (Digital Signal Processing), the result is outstanding 24-bit sound quality from suitable streaming services and compatible devices. Connect to your computer via USB, and you’ll enjoy even better wired high-res quality.
Optimized Noise Cancellation
Px8 uses proprietary Bowers & Wilkins-optimised noise cancellation technology to ensure outstanding performance with no impact on musicality. Six microphones work together to deliver the best results: two measure the output of each drive unit, two listen to ambient noise from the outside world, and two provide outstanding voice performance with enhanced noise suppression from Alango.
Bowers & Wilkins Music App
The Bowers & Wilkins Music App for iOS and Android puts you in full control. Use it to pair your headphones to your preferred devices, fine-tune the sound EQ to your preferences, adjust the noise cancelling transparency mode to let in more or less of the outside world and monitor your charge levels. Physical controls on each earcup ensure you’ll always be in control even if your phone isn’t readily to hand.
