Bowers & Wilkins arguably build some of the greatest loudspeaker units in the world, a statement backed by a massive variety of awards and 5-star reviews on products spanning from the company's entry-level 600 series speaker models all the way up to the world renowned Diamond series. 

B&W apply the same level of integrity, expertise and philosophy to their headphone models, reflecting the signature 'Bowers & Wilkins sound'; a warm, full response with precise and well delivered detail. There are three models in B&W's range of headphones and as the price increases, so does the size of the driver and the overall size of the unit. With this increase in size, the driver is able to deliver a more powerful and precise sound response. But even with the smallest model, B&W's dedication to replicating a true representation of the original sound source is evident. 

The original P7 from Bowers & Wilkins didn't take long to establish itself as one of the superior over-ear headphone models on the market, quickly rising to the top of its class with positive reviews from both happy consumers and impressed critics alike. The P7's luxurious feel and comfort, tempered with its unique and intuitive driver design set the benchmark as both audiophile-grade music equipment for the discerning listener on the go, and as a classy, premium fashion accessory for when image is equally as important as sound.

Due to technological advances with the way the drive-units have been designed, B&W have made these headphones with a tighter bass response, a more defined vocal touch, and an exceptional sense of space, balance and detail across the entire frequency range. Bowers & Wilkins say that in order to save space within a typical headphone encasement, the diaphragm needs to play two different roles of both the sound generator, and the suspension system. Engineers at Bowers & Wilkins have made a headphone driver that functions more like the driver found within a hifi speaker, with the diaphragm focused entirely on the role of generating sound. 

The portability of the P7 has now been reintroduced at an entirely new level with P7 Wireless. Retaining their collapsible/foldable design, the wireless version of the P7 utilises apt X, CD quality lossless Bluetooth transmission to free you from cables without compromising the integrity of your music.
