Pi7 S2 True Wireless Earbuds, Midnight Blue | Active Noise Cancellation, Qualcomm aptX Technology, Bluetooth, Crystal-Clear Calls, Wireless & 15-Minute Quick Charging

The sound quality is far superior to any other product on the market. No other earbud at this pricepoint even comes close. To realize how amazing these really are, I recommend you subscribe to hi-res music services like Qobuz or Tidal. These services offer hi-res music in 96/24 formats. With these hi-res formats (compared to CD quality or MP3) the music is equivalent to being in the studio in a live performance. Even the smallest details are reproduced with stunning detail and accuracy. You may hear the musician tapping his foot to the beat, of fingers sliding on the strings of a guitar. Vocals are seductive and luxurious. The bass is thunderous, and at the same time tight and detailed. The fit of the earbuds is excellent and critically important to get the deep bass these are capable of. Take your time to select the earbur tip which best fits your ear canal. The HD codec aptx is amazing and works flawlessly. LDAC is supposedly superior (not supported in these buds) but those differences in technology don't matter if the amplifiers and drivers can't reproduce all that goodness. Make sure your phone supports these hi-res formats. The Pi7 S2 meticulously reproduces the magic of hi-res music. If you are an audiophile, where the quality of music trumps every other consideration, the Pi7 S2 is a a good buy at $399. Note that you need to play these buds for at least a week before they reach their full potential. Like most any speaker driver - a mechanical component - they need some time to burn in, figuratively. The app doesn't have an equalizer or other frills you typically see at this pricepoint. A well designed earbud doesn't need an equalizer to force it to do something it can't do natively. That's the case here. The Pi7 is already perfect, and doesn't need artificial EQ tweaks. The app has a built in music player that connects to Tidal or Qobuz. In initially purchased this as a renewed product. Big mistake. The case was defective and caused connectivity issues. I recommend you purchase new, and get the 2 year BW warranty. Hi res music is more demanding of a good and fast bluetooth connection. So keep the phone close by for best results. The various other purchaser comments about the app are true. It's overly complicated and unreliable for installing and accessing the product. Problems installing and connecting get annoying fast. Easily installed on one phone, but same buds refuse to install on a secondary phone. I've also observed that the replacement for the defective buds does not have the pristine sound of the original ones. Highlights: 1. beyond spectacular music reproduction 2. considering audio quality only, worth every penny even at $399 3. subscribe to Tidal of Qobuz. you can easily transfer your playlists from other music services. 4. Expect some challenges with the app. Customer has been very helpful so far. Easy to reach on the phone and responsive to email. I initially tried 2 renewed products and often these are fully capable products. With these buds, I strongly suggest not. Spend a few extra bucks to buy new and avoid some of the issues reported by other buyers. For example, the buds are matched to the case. they are not interchangeable. products look identical, so used you may get Pi5 in a Pi7 case, or buds and case that are incompatible. So what about the BUT... 1. While the app integrates nicely with Qobuz and TIDAL, during playback via the app, it decides that a non B&W bud is connected and stops working. Only solution I've found is back in the case for awhile despite that the battery is still charged. 2. Without fail, after 1-2 hours the right buds stops working. Back in the case for awhile despite that the battery is still 50% charged. The app doesen't differentiate between left and right battery level, so it's almost like the right uses twice the power of the left. 3. ANC feature is generally poor. If ANC is at the top of your priority list, and you are willing to sacrifice audio quality, then the Bose QC may be the better choice. Bose QC II does not support hi-res codecs so the music reproduction is worse in a quiet environment but better in a noisy environment. 4. No firmware update since release, so not sure if these issues will be resolved by some future update. 5. The buds fit tight initially, but after a few minutes they lose the seal and sound quality degrades. The Bose QCII stay tight in the canal. This problem contributes to the poor ANC of the B&W. Everything considered, despite the stellar sound engineering, the problems are just too annoying. Back in the case every hour to charge or reset or whatever. No...

I wanted to try these because they're apparently for "audiophiles". Sound quality for music is good but not good enough to justify the price. The connectivity and app is worst. About 1 in every 5 times either one earphones will stop working or audio will have gaps and you'll have to turn it off and on by putting them back in the case. Call quality is just terrible, I'm not even talking about the ANC - the other side can barely understand you. So maybe instead of 2 or 3 microphones they can work on positioning one efficiently. No equalizer in the app, so you will have to you use the streaming app or a 3rd party to adapt different genres. I was looking forward to trying these, very disappointing experience.

After reading some reviews I bought these to replace my B&W PI8’s that were stolen. I have a collection of headphones of headphones and earbuds including the usual suspects from Beats (terrible), Sony(decent sound quality, great noise cancellation, meh build) and B&W (PI8, Px8 & PX8S2 - the PX8S2 being my #1 pick) The PI7S2 are by far the mode comfortable earbuds I’ve owned. So much better than the PI8’s and far far superior to Apple AirPods and AirPod pro’s) I was never 100% happy with the sound of the PI8’s ; I found them flat and lacked bass, especially when playing Rock, industrial or electronic music. The PI7S2’s however fill that bass void. If I’m being picky, the midrange could be a little more forward, but overall these are the best sounding earbuds I’ve owned by a considerable margin. One nice feature is that the case can act as a Bluetooth transmitter. A USB to 3.5mm jack cable is supplied. Use this to connect the charging case to a 3.5mm headphone output and the case will act as a Bluetooth transmitter to send audio to your earbuds. This is useful if you want to use these these with in flight entertainment. Just plug into the headphone jack on the seat back. ANC is ok, but not best in class. This isn’t important for me but may be to others. Another minor niggle is that there is no way to alter EQ in the B&W app. Minor niggles aside, the PI7S2’s are easily the best all round earbuds I’ve owned. Definitely worth considering.

Pros: -High quality detailed Sound that matches sound signature of B&W 700 series speakers. -Can discern between HiRes lossless sources, and compressed MP3/AAC streaming sources as higher grade over-the-ear headphones can. -Wireless Transmitter Case (if you want to hook up to a turntable headphone jack for example) -Aptx Adaptive -Multipoint (sort of) Connection for up to 4 devices -Has Transparency Mode -Has ANC Mode Cons: -Bass is lacking. No EQ in companion app, third party app is required for EQ correction. Bass needs boosting at 50hz by about 6dB, with a wide Q factor. (Maybe a seal issue) -Treble is overemphasized above 10Khz. No EQ in companion app, third party app is required for EQ correction, reducing 10.5Khz through 14Khz by -3db -Multipoint connection does not switch smartly like Sennheiser earbuds (ie listening to Computer, and then accept a call on phone), needs to be taken over by the Bluetooth enabled device. -Short battery life, drains ~40% per hour with Passthrough Mode or ANC enabled. -Passthrough mode is a bit of a fishbowl sound, inferior to Sennheiser TWS 3 transparency. -Passtrhough mode can only be enabled/disabled through the companion phone app. Needs button control. -ANC Mode isn't more effective than passive noise cancellation with a good seal, and changes eq curve for the worst. -No volume control!!! -No Companion app for desktop computer The B&W Pi7 S2 is a great earbud for stationary usage, such as at a work computer, particularly when using a keyboard for controls earbuds are lacking such as Volume. Not so great for traveling and workouts (the Sennheiser TWS 3 has the upper hand in this regard). Battery life won't last long enough for a long flight. The earbuds pair very well with the USB Sennheiser BTD 600 dongle and uses AptX Adaptive codec as hoped. Overall, I find the sound quality to be significantly better than any other earbud I've used, especially in terms of detail, resolution, and natural soundstage. The sound signature matches B&W Speaker: B&W Bookshelf Speakers have Great mids, airy highs, but definitely need a good subwoofer to provide the slam missing in the bottom; overall neutral-warm sound (I really like B&W Speakers, bested by Dynaudio and Focal). These earbuds mids from low mids to high mids are very balanced, not scooped, not blooming and loose, never honky, bloated or quacky--Just right! Treble is somewhat overemphasized from 10.5Khz-14Khz (that I reduce by 3db in the Peace EQ app for Windows, or PowerAmp for Android). I also find the mid bass to be strong and good, along with the mids. However, I find the sub-bass below 100hz to be lacking (contrary to reviews I've read). The bass is mildly present, but very recessed, especially for aggressive music, like Hardcore, Death Metal, Hardcore, Progressive Metal, Skate Punk, etc. I boost the sub-bass around 50hz by 3-6dB, depending on the mix to get that kick drum oompf. Some of the lack of bass could be an ear-tip seal issue (the medium sized ear tips work substantially better for me, but I feel like I could still get a better seal and may order some Comply ear-tips to try). Enabling ANC skews the EQ curve for a less desirable sound. Transparency mode works for further away sounds, like a car driving by, doorbell, etc, but sounds like underwater A.M. radio for conversations. Compared to Sennheiser TWS 3, the Sennheiser is an all-around better value to price point product in terms of ANC, Transparency, Multipoint Connection, and Companion App. However, the sheer sound quality of the B&W Pi 7 S2 is substantially better--its not even close, with a bigger, more refined "in the room" feel. Sennheiser TWS 3 however has better Bass and Treble control through the 5 band EQ (though everything at 0 sounds nice and neutral). B&W has that "audiophile" sound, and Sennheiser have that really good consumer grade sound (which is still much better than Apple, Sony, and Bose). It all depends on your needs: tech features vs pure sound quality. I like the B&W Pi7 S2 while stationary at my desk (to be honest, a good pair of over-the-ear cans would be more practical and beneficial in this scenario), and the Sennheiser TWS 3 for on-the-go needs, phone calls, and situations where I need to frequently hear my surroundings.

I wouldn't call myself an audiophile but my main use for earbuds are music (and not music while I work out, I do dedicate at least an hour of my day to sitting down and listening to music and nothing else). ✅️First the pros: I own several pieces of "entry level" high quality headphones and earbuds, studio monitors, etc. These are by far the best sounding ones I've ever had. They handle mid-range perfectly and the sound is full without being gimmickally bass boosted. It's truly incredible in thar regard. The ANC is great, the earbuds are comfortable so as long as you're nor laying on your side, at which point they will stick out and jab into your ear. If you have a record player, the aux to bluetooth feature is also a huge plus (though running any analog output through Bluetooth kinda defeats the purpose of owning analog media) ❌️Now for the cons: These aren't very functional. The battery life is abysmal and won't get you through a longer domestic flight, let alone an entire airport day. I thought that given my usage of them it wouldn't matter but it does and it's pretty inexcusable when cheaper alternatives are offering similar quality with 3x the battery life. The design is also pretty poor. The weird cylinder sticks out your ear and if you need to rest your head anywhere it'll jab into your ear canal. Lastly, regarding the app and connectivity, there's a general jankiness that would be acceptable if these were $40 dollars but is embarrassing at this price point. You're never quite sure where you stand with these earbuds, sometimes the app doesn't recognize them as paired (which makes it so you can't change pass through mode as there's no touch control for that setting, it's only done in-app) sometimes they don't charge to 100% after being in the case overnight, etc. The app is barebones and there's no custom eq feature. Conclusion: I knew about most of these issues coming in and I thought that the audio quality would make for all of them. It does not and this product definitely does not justify its price tag. At $400 we should be able to have this audio quality with at least some of the cons addressed. Battery life is probably the worst, but that added to the janky app and lackluster controls just put this one beyond recommending for me. You know exactly what the main competitor for this unit is, that is the one I traded it for.

Bass is very clear and powerful, not much sub bass, but not expected with aptx adaptive regardless. Would be cool if it had ldac. Treble a little too bright, responds really well to dampening by external eq (app doesn't have eq), or foam tips. Amazing soundstage, only tws I heard that has a broader soundstage is noble prestige with wide bore tips, but it's on another price bracket/product category. Nozzle on the larger side, does not fit standard tips really well. Transperancy is very natural, no hiss even at highest level. ANC subpar for 2024. Infrequent connection issues, especially if you're trying monobud. In short, out of all mainstream buds, one of the most versatile that also has high fidelity sound quality. I would expect the future versions to support aptx lossless, ditch master/slave connection method, upgrade to BT5.4 at least, and improve on ANC, and add multi connect. If they can fix the shrill treble, that would be the perfect TWS at any price

This review is for the Bowers & Wilkins PI7 S2 (Blue) . TL;DR │ I have the original PI7. Like the PI7, These are frustrating to use in real-life — you can't practically use transparency (pass-through) mode⁽ⁿ⁰⁾. The touch controls are non-customizable with stupid functions.⁽ⁿ¹⁾ On the flip side, Bluetooth finally works⁽ⁿ²⁾, and these sound a bit louder⁽ⁿ³⁾. The battery is a little better as well, according to them.⁽ⁿ⁴⁾ CONTENTS: Intro │ What I Like │ What I Don't Like │ Package │ Outro │ Notes │ Verdict - - - - - I've been using the PI7 (which I'll refer to as "S1") for quite a while. It's a good-sounding pair of earphones but it only worked in a vacuum. In the real world? Bluetooth drops, sound levels are low, and transparency mode takes 1 minute to activate. And why on earth would I need a dedicated, non-configurable [touch] button for a voice assistant? I bought these thinking they solved the frustrations I had. Sadly, not really. In my opinion, this should not have been an "S2". These are more of an... "S1.1" — it's just a tweak. An incomplete tweak with a fresh coat of paint. An update, not an upgrade. Kinda like a "refresh" and not a "redesign" (in automotive). This product feels like it's been designed in a vacuum. WHAT I LIKE │ + │ + IMO, the sound signature is still the best in class. + Audio retransmission is actually useful. + aptX Adaptive. + Solid build on metallic parts. + USB-C (yes, this is a big pro). + Case supports wireless charging VS. PI7 S1: ++ Bluetooth finally works. But what a low bar this is.⁽ⁿ²⁾ ++ Sound is subjectively better and objectively louder.⁽ⁿ³⁾ ++ Tiny bit better battery, but almost insignificant.⁽ⁿ⁴⁾ ++ Uses the newer app.⁽ⁿ⁵⁾ ++ Better color choices. I like blue. ++ Charging case is lighter. WHAT I DON'T LIKE │ × │ × Expensive for something unpolished. × No ANC/transparency quick toggle.⁽ⁿ⁰⁾ × Non-customizable functions.⁽ⁿ¹⁾ × App issues.⁽ⁿ⁵⁾ × This is the third B&W app I had to use.⁽ⁿ⁵⁾ × Non-braided cables. × No LDAC. × Bluetooth 5.0? Really? VS. PI7 S1: ×× Charging case feels cheaper. ×× Case magnet is stronger; harder to take earbuds. ×× All things considered, feels less premium. PACKAGE │ ✓ ✗ │ ✓ Bowers & Wilkins PI7 S2 earphones. ✓ Silicone ear tips (S, M, L - color matched). ✓ Charging case (color matched). ✓ USB C to C cable. ✓ USB C to 3.5mm TRS audio cable. ✓ Printed materials. ✓ Small box. ✗ NO Foam Tips Think about this: I stopped using the PI7 in favor of a pair of Pixel Buds Pro (about AirPods Pro equivalent). Even with the S2, I'd likely still use the "cheaper" earbuds I have. I usually get really good-sounding headphones which is why I got the PI7. But it stinks to actually use it as a set of "wireless" earphones because it's hard to use, in practice, the way you a person would use a wireless earphone. - - - - - NOTES ⁽ⁿ⁰⁾ When do you practically need to turn transparency (passthrough) mode on? "Immediately when needed", right? It happens when you need to quickly hear what is happening around you, or if someone starts talking to you. Well, guess what, you take your phone out, you unlock it, you navigate to the app, you wait forever for the app to load, you navigate to turn transparency mode on, and you press it. And that is if the app even "sees" your device.⁽ⁿ⁵⁾ It's faster to just take off the earphones, which defeats the purpose of transparency mode. Then you have to do it all over again to turn it off. REALLY, Bowers and Wilkins? Who's in charge of these things? I do not understand. They have solved this in the PX7 S2. ⁽ⁿ¹⁾ The touch functions are non-customizable. The transparency mode function could have been accommodated through this. I do not care about the voice assistant. I am outside with people using my wireless earphones, not trying to control my smart devices or do a google search. I can use my phone screen for that. It's fine cont being able to customize the play/pause control, but the press-and-hold? Why not give us the option? (For reference, others like the Pixel Buds Pro have this customizable option). ⁽ⁿ²⁾ The other major complaint I have was the abhorrent Bluetooth signal. I essentially CANNOT use the PI7 S1 earphones with my phone in my pocket. Period. I have to lay my phone on my driveway (concrete) when trying to do yard work, and even that does not work 100%. Seems to be fixed on the S2. Will update here if I encounter a bad connection again. ⁽ⁿ³⁾ My last major complaint with the PI7 S1 was how weak the sound output was. Abnormally low in volume, in my opinion. The S2s kinda improved on that issue, but... still lacking relative to other earphones. ⁽ⁿ⁴⁾ I usually do not use my earphones all day, but when I do, I notice the short battery life. In my usage, these still do not last, especially if you need ANC. The "extra" juice in the S2 is negligible and won't positively affect your unbiased perception if you care about the battery. Personally, I do not see the difference. ⁽ⁿ⁵⁾ This is the THIRD app from B&W I had to use. Although it seems like it's the best, they're all the same with just different skins. The app still has this issue: The app sometimes could not find the headphones, EVEN WHEN IT IS ALREADY CONNECTED and playing music. At least now that I only use PX7 S2 and PI7 S2, I'll only have to have one app. - - - VERDICT: I "kinda" recommend this product ★★☆☆☆ | 2 stars out of 5. Great earphones, ruined by the lack of quick transparency+ANC switch. 4 stars if you do not care about transparency. Maybe 5 if you're also wealthy. Questions? Hit the comments! This review is for the Bowers & Wilkins PI7 S2 (Blue) .

Avoid this product!!!! I expected premium performance from the Bowers & Wilkins Pi7 S2, but the wireless connectivity has been incredibly disappointing. The signal constantly drops, especially in crowded areas or even when my phone is just in my pocket. Audio cuts out randomly, switching devices is unreliable, and the Bluetooth stability feels worse than much cheaper earbuds. Sound quality is great when they actually stay connected, but for headphones in this price range, the network/signal reliability is unacceptable. Definitely not worth the premium price if you care about stable everyday use.

Best sound quality compared to Sony XM4, AirPods Pro 2. Battery hours may not good enough for some people. App is slow.

Très bons écouteurs mais je trouve que le grave est un peu trop présent un petit réglage de l'équaliseur permet d'ajuster selon vos goûts

Queste cuffie hanno un suono meraviglioso. Peccato che il suono sia l'unico pregio di queste cuffie. Il primo difetto che si riscontra, è nell'accoppiamento con il telefono che 4 volte su 10 avviene male e il suono va a scatti e quindi bisogna rimettere le cuffie nella custodia e riaccoppiarle almeno per 3 o 4 volte, poi la soppressione del rumore è INESISTENTE. Che senso ha fare delle cuffie true wireless se poi non riesco a sentire la musica se sono in giro per la città? Quando si attiva la soppressione del rumore subentra uno strano effetto rimbombo dei rumori esterni che rende la musica inascoltabile. Ed infine la forma stessa delle cuffie provoca (almeno nel mio caso) un fastidioso dolore quando si ruotano per fissarle una volta indossate nell'orecchio. Peccato B&W le cuffie suonano in maniera divina ma tutti gli altri difetti le rendono fastidiosamente inutilizzabili.....effettuato reso dopo una settimana.

Vergleich: Bowers & Wilkins Pi5S2 - In-Ear - neu Bowers & Wilkins Pi7S2 - In-Ear - Amazon Warehouse wie neu Bowers & Wilkins Pi8 - In-Ear - Amazon Warehouse akzeptabel Bowers & Wilkins Px7S2e - Over-Ear - gebraucht (fast wie neu) (Sony WI-XB400L - In-Ear / Denon AH-GC30 - Over-Ear) Mir fällt auf, dass gerade bei den besseren und teureren In-Ears bei Amazon sehr oft dasteht „häufig zurückgegebener Artikel“. Ich denke, dass oft die Unzufriedenheit Gründe hat, die nicht wirklich am Modell liegen, sondern an unwissentlich gemachten Fehlern beim Ausprobieren. daher folgende Grundregeln: 1.Die Ear-Tips müssen bei In-Ears genau so groß sein, dass der Gehörgang damit komplett abgedichtet wird! Wenn also der Sound platt ist, gar kein Bass oder zu wenig da ist, dann probiert die nächstgrößeren Ear-Tips für den Gehörgang. Auch das gute Funktionieren des ANC hängt zu einem großen Teil davon ab, dass die Ear-Tips richtig abdichten. 2.Die Ear-Tips sind nicht beliebig zwischen verschiedenen Modellen austauschbar. Damit meine ich nicht nur den Durchmesser der Zapfen am Hörer, sondern auch Material, Form und Abstimmung mit dem Hörer. 3.Manche Lautsprecher und Kopfhörer müssen sich einlaufen. Leider steht das nicht in den Anleitungen und so wird das Urteil zu früh gefällt. Erlebt habe ich das nun selbst zweimal mit den Bowers & Wilkins Pi5S2 und Pi7S2. Anfangs war der Tieftonbereich bei beiden etwas dünn. Pi5S2 - Membrandurchmesser 9,2mm Dynamic Drive Die hatte ich zuerst bestellt, weil ich ein sehr gutes Angebot fand. Am Anfang gab es erst mal eine Enttäuschung, da auch mit den großen Ear-Tips der Tieftonbereich deutlich schwächer war als bei den WI-XB400L. Der Rest war besser, aber das Bass-Fundament fehlte. Nach einiger Zeit (1 Akkuladung) wurde es deutlich besser und am Ende sind sie nicht unbedingt bassstärker, aber gleich stark und rundherum besser, klarer, angenehmer, … im Klang, der Auflösung von akustischen Details usw. Sie sind damit auch besser als der große AH-GC30. Px7S2e - Membrandurchmesser 40mm Cellulose Membran Angeheizt davon habe ich einen gekauft und bin begeistert, wie gut der in jeder Hinsicht klingt. Im Vergleich zum Pi5S2 gibt es hier akustisch einfach mehr von allem. (Was auch dazu führte, dass ich meine anderen On-Ear und Over-Ear alle verkauft habe.) …das Bessere ist des Guten Feind… Pi7S2 mit Zweiwegesystem oder Pi8 mit größerer Membran? Diese beiden können mit ihrem Case als Transmitter auch an Geräten ohne eingebauten Bluetooth-Sender genutzt werden (z.B. Fernseher). Allerdings kann nur das Case des Pi7S2 auch mit einem anderen B&W Kopfhörer verbunden werden. Das funktioniert mit dem Px7S2e sehr gut. Dem Pi8 hat man diese Funktion wieder geraubt. Pi7S2 - Membrandurchmesser 9,2mm Dynamic Drive + Hochtontreiber Wieder wenig Tiefton und es wurde nach 3-4 Stunden wieder erheblich besser. Mit den mitgelieferten Ear-Tips und nach weiterer Zeit der Nutzung klingen sie deutlich besser, so gut wie ich es erhofft habe! Der Bass ist beim Pi7S2 je nach Lied mal etwas weniger intensiv und mal gleich stark wie beim Pi5S2. Der tiefe Frequenzbereich geht jedoch beim Pi7S2 etwas weiter runter und liegt so zwischen dem Pi5S2 und Px7S2e. In den Höhen ist er etwas stärker als alle anderen, was aber auch abhängig vom Lied unterschiedlich wahrnehmbar ist. Also nichts stört oder zischt, sondern er ist noch etwas klarer, brillanter im oberen Bereich als die anderen 3. Pi8 - Membrandurchmesser 12mm Carbon Membran Die waren sichtbar genutzt, nicht verschmutzt, aber eben nicht mehr neu. (Und warum bitte können manche Käufer die originalen, beim Testen benutzten Ear-Tips nicht wieder mit zurücksenden? Zum Glück für mich fehlten nur die M und ich brauche die L.) Der Klang liegt auf gleicher Höhe, wie beim Pi7S2. Kein Wunder, es ist ja der direkte Nachfolger. Ich hätte gedacht, er geht wegen der größeren und Carbon Membran beim Tiefton etwas tiefer und kommt damit näher an den Px7S2e ran. Aber das scheint nicht der Fall zu sein. Zumindest kann ich es nicht raushören. Bei den Mitten und Höhen ist er gleich auf mit dem Px7S2e. Er klingt insgesamt nur minimal heller als der Px7S2e (mehr Tiefbass) und bei manchen Liedern minimal weniger hell als der Pi7S2 (mit Hochtöner). Fazit: Alle Vier sind in ihrer Liga top! Da kann auch kein JBL oder Bose dagegen ankommen, außer man mag deren aufgemischten Sound einfach mehr, als diese saubere Perfektion. Ich kann mit allen nahezu unbegrenzt lange hören, ohne dass sie anfangen mich zu nerven (im Gegensatz zu JBL oder Bose). Unterwegs treten die Klangunterschiede auch bei anderen Modellen ohnehin oft in den Hintergrund, weil sie trotz ANC sowieso von den lästigen Außengeräuschen torpediert werden. Das etwas mehr an Tiefton beim Px7S2e ist nur im direkten Vergleich überhaupt feststellbar und auch nur wenn die Musik den Bereich noch nutzt (z.B. Perfect Symphony von Ed Sheeran im Duett mit Andrea Bocelli). Auch das etwas mehr an Hochton beim Pi7S2 ist nur im direkten Vergleich bei passender Musik herauszuhören. Voraussetzung dafür ist dann auch absolute Ruhe um einen herum und Konzentration auf die Musik. Die Unterschiede liegen damit stärker bei der Ausstattung, also den Funktionen und im Preis. Daher habe ich die Daten, die ich mir zusammengestellt habe, hier mal als Bild hinzugefügt. - Px7S2e für das genussvolle Hören zu Hause mit deutlichem, tiefem, nie störendem Bass und für die bessere Abschirmung (ANC passiv + aktiv) in Bus, Bahn, Flugzeug - Pi8 + Pi7S2 etwas tiefer im Frequenzgang, aber neutraler in der Abstimmung als der Pi5S2 und mit der Zusatzfunktion des Case als BT-Sender - Pi5S2 mit im Durchschnitt etwas mehr angehobenen Bass als der Pi7S2 + PI8, aber ebenfalls uneingeschränkt gutem Klang Subjektiv mag euch ein anderer mehr zu sagen. Meinen Geschmack trifft B&W hier aber sehr gut. Die App bietet das Nötigste und man kann damit die Hörer auch von einem anderen Gerät trennen oder damit wieder verbinden, als dem in der Hand. Damit stört das bei den Pi5 + Pi7 nicht so, dass sie kein Multipoint können, da ich sie nicht erst am anderen verbundenen Gerät trennen muss.

Love the sound, able to hear details and there's lots of space. Sound is similar to beoplay EQ to my ears but more bassy. ANC is decent, usable on subway. Update: Still love the sound but there are connectivity issues, often find myself having to place them back in the case and then taking them back out to resolve such issues. Mic is useless as i tend to wear them at a weird angle where the mic isn't pointing forward. ANC is present but not strong, similar or slightly worse than MTW3, quiet listening on underground subway is not possible.
