Review on 🎧 Space Grey Bowers & Wilkins PX5 Wireless On-Ear Headphones with Noise Cancellation by Dimitar Budinov ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The quality is at the level, I am satisfied with everything.

I bought a Dali IO-6, a Bose QuietComfort 35 II, a B&W PX Soft Gold, a Bang & Olufsen, whose model I can't recall, and a B&W PX5. After getting to know the latter, I came to the conclusion that these headphones are the ideal choice for me. All of my devices, including the laptop and TV, linked to the headphones instantly and without any issues. On my smartphone, I loaded a proprietary program for controlling headphones, and I must tell that it is quite practical and convenient. I noticed right away that there was a download for the software, but for some reason I was unable to use my smartphone. Nevertheless, I was able to use another. Before the software ate, when watching a video, the sound lagged behind the image by a significant amount, which was frankly annoying. Now there is desynchronization, but it's almost imperceptible. After the ate, the connection became faster, some errors disappeared, for example, now you can adjust the volume in the ambient sound mode, which is actually a very good thing: I use it when I pay at the checkout in the supermarket. The ear cushions on headphones are quite soft, offer an adequate level of comfort, and effectively block out background noise. Headphones fit comfortably on the head. The audio is clear and well-balanced in terms of tonality; it sounds rather "live" as opposed to analytically dry. Excellent bass (just the right amount), clarity without turbidity, and rumbling. The center is open and transparent. The music sounds excellently energetic and has crisp higher frequencies. I should mention active noise cancellation, which does not degrade the quality in the slightest. As a result, I can now listen to music at a low volume when traveling or walking down a busy street without any interference from outside noise. You can modify the level of outside noise penetration using three modes: HI, LOW, and AUTO. Many thanks to the Pult. Ru Hong Kong shop consultants for their understanding and assistance in selecting equipment.

Pros
  • The sound is obviously the most important feature, followed by active adaptive noise reduction, good passive noise reduction, seamless pairing with various devices, design, soft, comfortable ear cushions, a lovely case, support for Bluetooth 5.0, and a variety of codecs, including SBC, AAC, aptX, aptX HD, and the new aptX adaptive.
Cons
  • They sit comfortably, don't press, and the ears don't get tired, but when the head is tilted, the headband starts to slide and the headphones try to fall off (possibly because of the anatomical features of the head), so in general, don't actively move in them. My feelings are that they are a little heavy for overhead headphones. As a result, I advise considering how they will fit you before purchase. The software was consumed in a short time.
