There\u2019s a fine line between luxurious and ludicrous. When you\u2019re talking about a pair of $799 headphones, that line begins to blur. Bowers & Wilkins has been on an excellent run of form over the past few years<\/a>, consistently offering some of the best sound quality you\u2019ll find on any headphones<\/a>. It doesn\u2019t load its models down with features \u2014 sometimes it could use a few more \u2014 but there\u2019s always a great blend of design, audio performance and capable active noise cancellation (ANC) that make for well-rounded products.<\/p>\n

And then there\u2019s the Px8 S2<\/a>. At $799, it\u2019s $100 more expensive than its predecessor (the Px8<\/a>) was at launch, which puts them<\/a> even further out of reach for most. Bowers & Wilkins did change up its familiar design slightly, and there\u2019s a big improvement to audio performance, the addition of high-res music over USB-C and improved call quality. There\u2019s no doubt the Px8 S2 is beyond premium, but did the company go too far?<\/p>\n

Luxurious sound comes at a very high price on the Px8 S2, which has a number of notable upgrades over the last-gen Px8.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
