Bowers & Wilkins Deals & Offers

Yeah, saw your comment, was nothing wrong with it. Sorry man.

I left a comment comparing the PX to the Momentums and it's been deleted, odd? I guess the moderator doesn't realise how close the PX and PX5 are

(lol) (lol) Thanks for the heat

Both are better than Sony. B&W is better than all three. I tried really hard to like Bose QC32 II despite a good noise cancelling system, but being an IEM guy just couldn't get myself to appreciate them. Personally if you have smaller earlobes then I'd go for these than any of the others. Heat added, Mrs Witch (original, I know (lol) )

One my friend, is never enough. I'm a geordie (embarrassed) XD

Anytime; they're stylish, comfy and sound very good

Thanks. they GBP139 on Amazon at the moment brand new. Gonna give them a try.

Pretty good, and a steal at £85 at CeX when in stock, but it's a much older model without the latest BT chip, ie. not aptX HD or Adaptive. This is a late 2019 model, cutting edge tech

what about KEF Porsche design Space One Wireless?

Thanks for all the help. After lots of researching I have just ordered the Dali IO-4 for £220. The PX7 were very tempting but I decided to go with something that has a flatter response and without enhanced bass frequencies. Also didn’t really need ANC

Dad’ socks do not cost this much, however a saving is still a saving.

I was looking at the Pi3 in Blue whcih are dearer on Amazon, seems there are some slight variances and some big ones.

Cheaper on Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bowers-Wilkins-Wireless-Headphones-Cancellation-Space-Grey/dp/B07WK5XT8T/ref=asc_df_B07WK5XT8T/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=384035550897&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=3495161867094806158&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9046928&hvtargid=pla-827695821026&psc=1&tag=&ref=&adgrpid=81032206489&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvadid=384035550897&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=3495161867094806158&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9046928&hvtargid=pla-827695821026

Hi folks, I am looking for 2 sets of headphones, to listen to tv at night so doesn’t disturb the kids above . We have a Panasonic tx55ez952b TV. Do these headphones connect to the tv you know, or do we need some sort of receiver ? total novice at this sort of thing. We just want great quality earphones to cut out all noise, and kids can’t hear a peep

Can you confirm which branch and what date you purchased the space grey ones? The Newcastle branch said that the would normally only match the same colour item (silver) but would be willing to provide the space grey ones if they could see that they have already supplied them at the reduced price.

What warranty do Richer give on these? Thanks

Call them and they will do it for you

Very good, amazing wireless sound, but uncomfortable on ears. This was sorted with px5/px7, waiting for a deal on these would seem sensible to me B&W's forte is sound quality, not ANC. If you'd be using them in very noisy environments I'd maybe look at other brands

Price updated £155.44 now (used).

Preferred to px7 as I found problems with windy days on px7

Thanks endemic

Try ReviewMeta instead. https://reviewmeta.com/amazon-uk/B0756XMGV1 There seems to be some suspicion that FakeSpot is substantially inaccurate. True or not, ReviewMeta at least gives you a lot more information about what it's doing any why, so you're able to decide for yourself.

Thanks haha perfecto . (strong)

Back upto £400

This might help... (y)

Thought it was a fancy washing machine in the pic. Think it’s time I went to specsavers haha.

Have some in the loft, the neighbors hate them. I wish I could afford a detached house.

Congratulations (party)

good speaker, brought full pricevon christmas

All Android 10 phones support aptX Adaptive

Just a FYI aptx adaptive (latest version) changes to the best quality it can support depending on signal quality/distance. Th PX7 supports it but i havent seen any DAplayers or phones that support it yet. I use my PX and did use the px7 on my pioneer xd-100r DAP but it is only apt-x standard version.

Does Sony support AptX HD? As LDAC is their codec - so that's what they normally use. Their headphones use LDAC and not AptX typically. LDAC implementations can range from AptX to AptX HD quality or higher really, depending on the bit rate supported/chosen it seems. I don't want to ditch my stylus. It looks like LG may be releasing a competitor to the Note though. Edit: Looks like Sony support AptX HD across most of their phones and headphones actually. Just not their true wireless earphones.

Yes Samsung only supporting apt x and ldac is very poor. Samsung state that it’s because it’s unstable well I moved from Samsung to Sony because of it. The Bluetooth range is around 20% better than the Samsung so I dont understand it.

Funnily enough, just been reading about the Shure Aonic 50 too. Early reviews are looking good.

Get these, PX sound very good too but uncomfortable, ANC not as good; KEF older model

Torn between these the KEF Space One's and also the PX. Which one has the best overall sound quality? Also want some new headphones for work but also practical enough for plane travel.

Those extra features you mention usually come at a premium if implemented with real QUALITY, not at 30%-50% of price. Yes definitely wired is king, but BT tech made huge strides, adding to cable-free convenience the ANC convenience, ideal for commuting, noisy offices, general out and about. Best, open-back, wired headphones now confined to home use

Most reviewers seem to rate the Sony's as class leading for active noise reduction, ahead of Bose. Personally, I'm not an audiophile and don't listen to much music so that's a plus. I would go for a budget pair that deliver 95% of the quality at 30-50% of the cost. The market is flooded with headphones that are good enough for the vast majority, along with all the extra features (call quality, dual pairing, voice assistants, aptx low latency etc) that are probably more important to non audiophiles than the high end minutiae of sound quality. If you really really want the best sound, surely wired headphones remain king?

No intention of sounding cool, because I AM cool. I don't need to sound cool, I just don't care how I sound. Will never care. I just sound like myself, no other human being has my specific sound. Unique sound signature! (lol) 'Cans' it's what folks call these engineering marvels nowadays, vocab changes with time. Not a youngster here anymore, just keeping up with the kids...

It is

Is that price for a pair?

For the start of a 5.1 setup, at LEAST Denon x2600 (I am running monitor audio silver 50's with the x2500 (upstairs for stereo only but wanted something that had all the bluetooth bells and whistles and running a second set of speakers) and they really do sing!

I've never owned the 606s so I can't give an informed opinion on them. Depends on what your end goal is really. If you're aiming for mainly a home cinema setup then getting a package is probably the best way to go. If you're going to be split between music (that should really only be listened to in stereo) and films then it might be worth spending a bit more on the fronts and making up your budget on the rears. Try r/homecinema on reddit and there's loads of advice on there.

Depends on what you can afford. If I were to buy a package now I would get the Bronze 2, as they are being sold off (or Bronze 5 if you have room for floor standers).

I find my pioneer sc-lx 57 good as it is as a surround amp can't deliver what my arcam A19 can stereo.

I was thinking of getting a new NAD all in one system as it just seems like the next step forward for me.

Sounds expensive and complicated!

Used to, had Marantz and Kenwood Amps but with Home entertainment becoming bigger made sense to use an AV receiver instead.

Agree about Denon receiver but Tannoy speakers with tulip wave guide ans dual concentric drivers would beat the pants of b and w.

Richer Sounds provides 6 years warranty.

Think i am going to wait and go get there advice and opinions when this is over looking to invest in good kit

I always dreamed of having the Nautilus's :(

Would happily get these if my 601 S2's weren't still brilliant.

Only as a generalisation floorstanders are going to sound different, usually better depth and low control due to the cabinet size. But a good stand or bookshelf can outperform a cheap floor and of course the aesthetics and practicalities are different. It's not fair to judge floor v stand in many ways, Apples and Oranges. For the money involved you really need to be able to do a working comparison, hopefully another 3 weeks and Richer demo rooms will be open. Edit: Just thought that Richer's CS is quite good and under the distance selling regs you could buy both, try out and return one set.

I have a pair of B&W's bought for my 18th bday, 48 years ago. They are still going strong and make a wonderful sound. Not sure if still the same quality, but potentially an investment for life !

I very tempted,have 685s2 but read a few reviews and said the 606 can sound a little bright with some recordings.heat given🔥

Yer, I remember when Kef actually made speakers in Maidstone.

These look great but I'm stuck with my 33 year old Sony Amp coupled up with some Pioneer Speakers I got from a charity shop after my Sony APM's gave up the ghost in 2016. Still sounds fantastic mind, even through my Bluetooth turntable

Honestly, I think that's what I may end up going to...

What do you call when you move one of these around? Bowers movement... I’ll see myself out...

Had the 602s and 604s. These 607s are great for the money

Omg... don't need, much want <3

Yes there are quite a few of the air's on eBay. Must say I've had no problems with mine and its still going strong. Was considering trading in for a wireless though as they support android as well as iOS

cant comment on wireless, but talking specifically to Airs they dont take em. Looks like the standard zeppelin is still being taken so maybe worth trying to pass off as that if want to sell to them specifically. ebay/facebook likely to be better options

the airs are oos but they do have a C grade wireless available

Nope. Look again, no option to buy and no option to sell. They are unreliable and no doubt they had to pay out on fair few before deciding to pull them

CEX are still selling them. I was considering trading in my old air for the newer wireless model

Same price from Amazon

B&W are one of the oldest Audiophile manufacturers in the UK albeit the headphone range has been around for around 8 to 10 years. I had the P7 and they were amazing.

To be fair to Beats, Apple eventually forced them to grow up and deliver a more mainstream sound, supported by the owner's chip expertise. Studio 3 was turning point, upgrade due soon

Oh man ... B&W are a different League then beats. I had the px.... Absolutely amazing sound. Literally I had tears listening to old tunes that I loved. However.... They are heavy and uncomfortable Now have the px7's, and while a little lighter, much comfier, the sound profile is no where near the perfect neutral crystal clear beauty of the px. Still looking for my perfect BT headphones.

Bowers & WIlkins produce high end speakers. The sound quality is first rate and these are very comfortable. £ for £ they make mince meant out of Beats products. Do Beats produce anything this high end? https://www.bowerswilkins.com/en-gb/home-audio/nautilus

Me too, we should stick to well known brand like Beats.

The Q60r is an edge lit TV with less powerful speakers. This is direct lit and has a dedicated subwoofer built in. This is the better TV, and it’s cheaper too. It’s voted hot from me.

Interesting to see what will happen with TV prices considering whats going on

Cold! This is expensive. Samsung 50" qled q60r isn't much more than this

Completely different TV as well. Might as well suggest a kettle as an alternative XD

err why are you guys suggesting a 65 inch as an alternative to a 50 inch?

Much prefer these to the Sony XM3 and Jabra Elite 85h I previously tried. The sound quality and fit are excellent.

Much more comfortable than PX, only aspect where that one was lacking with regards to Bose etc - basically PX7 is now approaching wireless perfection, or as close as you can get for less than £300 (This on B&W website £280 for a few more days)

Price went down OP, £272.05

Beautiful sound. Voice, instruments they all sound beautiful. The design is interesting but I have no complaints. Very comfortable, I've used them at the gym and have no complaints. Very good for those who use glasses. I can go on with the positives for a long time.

Incremental improvement, if you have the PX's i'd say there's no pressing reason to upgrade.
