The Sumptuous and Sonorous Bowers&Wilkins P7

[jsense]

After using all the suggested headphones in this review for quite some time, i can safely say that the P7s are in my eyes the best sounding of the group. I believe they do belong on the Tyls Wall of Fame, they are definitely on mine. I love them a lot.

yet another great review tyle,
Always nice to see great content rich and useful reviews rather than those dam unboxing vids unlike some others that seem to think unboxings are more important than an actual review, dont know about anyone else but i have yet to hear a cardboard box reproduce audio,     You really do spoil us with your reviews and i always enjoy watching them, nice descriptions for build quality, comfort, unique features of a particular headphone a nice bit of technology and how products are engineered to make them work they way they do and of course sound quality with measurements and all this lovely info squeezed into a 10 min video in hd, with the added cherry of expo coverages, Defiantly a positive influence and contribution on this monster of awesomeness we call youtube, needless to say thumbs up from me thanks again tyle

Can i just thank you, your videos are always very good, and every in depth you are like a video version of the website head-fi.org. You never miss a feature too, quite clearly you put a lot of effort into your videos, thank you!

+1 for the Sennheiser Momentums, the new ones have a better fit since the EarPods are larger. Can't wait to get them!

The P7 hurt my ears too much. Maybe because I have glasses. I took them back and keep using my P5's. I love the memory foam on them and the p5's still sound great. When I want audiophile quality, I just listen on my B&W towers.

Owned Momentums for a while when they first launched, liked them okay but wanted  something that sounded a little better, btw I had no real fit issues.  Now I own the P7 and after break in these headphone sounds much better to my ears, less boom and more detailed, un-fatiguing high end presentation.  Midrange sounds good to me, I appreciate the depth of field that a SLIGHTLY recessed midrange can bring.  Overall I say the P7 is a notch above the Momentum. Need to hear the NAD cans....

I think any Bowers and Wilkins blows away the Senheiser Momentum. I have owned them both and sold the Senheisers

Wonderful review! Keep up the good work!

I own these, I would say they sound much better plugged into my laptop rather then my iphone. they seem to benefit hugely form being driven by a mains feed source rather than a battery powers sources which tend not to produced enough power to really get the headphone diaphragms moving.

Looking forward to a review of the P9.

Bought these headphones about 4 months ago. I am using fiio x3 as my audio source and I learned that these pair are easily bassier than the Audio technica m50s which I own as well. I found that when the bass was turned up to full, these headphones give out a rattling vibration which i found annoying. The tracks i played were flac files which played fine on the audio technica m50s.

I have had the P5 for about 18 months, only problem is they sneeze tightly to your head so after a while they become uncomfortable and I need to take them off. I guess the P7 is no different

Anyone noticed that this headphone is similar in look to the monster inspiration and also the way they fold ?

[chopcookies]

Would love to see you review the KEF M500

[oskarstrom]

Great review as always. So weird though: you describe the sound characteristics of these the way I would describe the Sennheiser Momentum. "Accentuated treble and bass and withdrawn mids with a slightly muddy bass". And since you adore the momentum I have to conclude that these would be far too bassheavy for me.

[kledder]

I agree with what you're saying in the video. Today I briefly used these headphones while watching a movie. The voices are definitely not rich enough. Everything else is nice as long as you're not looking for a super realistic sound stage. Unfortunately this means that I'll have to continue my search for a high quality wireless headphone for watching movies and tv series. Any tips?

[thekash]

you have a chance to try out the P7 wireless version yet?

[havok]

I was not at all a fan of how the EQ was done on these. I think you touched on what I experienced, but it was far more extreme for me. The bass seemed overblown and muddy. Vocalists were difficult to hear and took a back seat to other instruments. Especially female vocals. Also, not the typical use case, but I use these headsets a lot for conference calls from my mobile as well. The way that female vocals were EQed, I had a very difficult time hearing female voices on calls and found myself asking them to repeat quite often. I really liked the Senn Momentums, but the fit caused me pain. I've ordered some NAD HP50s to try next.

These P7's have a dip in the classic "V" if you like that, you'll love i were you, i'd skip them and run straight for the new Hifiman these are infinitely better sounding and more comfortable.

HI, THANKYOU for your reviews.Ive used them for years now and your attention to detail has made it easy for me to buy right.Im stuck on the BnW P7 AND The Sen..HD800 is it worth paying the extra as i do like a punchy bass?
