Product Information
Combining flagship sound quality with the inimitable McLaren themed livery, the Bowers & Wilkins Px8 S2 McLaren Edition are the ultimate incarnation of headphone sound and style.
McLaren and Bowers & Wilkins – the premium partnership
For many years, Bowers & Wilkins speakers have been the choice for McLaren in their supercars and hypercars. Now it’s the turn of McLaren, who have transformed the flagship Px8 S2 headphones with a unique, McLaren themed livery. For an F1-inspired aesthetic that Lando would be proud of, they’re finished in McLaren’s distinctive livery, pairing elegant Anthracite Grey with striking Papaya detailing.
Flagship wireless headphones that set the standard
Featuring carbon cone drivers, high-performance Digital Signal Processor, true 24-bit audio connection and Bluetooth with aptX Lossless technology, The Px8 S2 McLaren Edition are Bowers & Wilkins’s ultimate headphones. What’s more, Active Noise Cancellation powered by a multi-mic array, effortlessly cuts background noise, while also ensuring crystal-clear call quality. Thanks to a battery life that lasts up to 30 hours, you can listen for longer too.
Premium sound quality
Designed for the very best in sound quality, the Bowers & Wilkins Px8 S2 McLaren Edition headphones feature a high performance DSP (Digital Signal Processor) with dedicated amplifier and DAC (Digital to Analogue Convertor). As you’d expect from this premium audio company, the drive units are something special. Carbon-coned and angled towards your ears, the 40mm drive units deliver a sound that’s crystal-clear, accurate, and packed full of detail.
Wireless sound, at its best
For the very best in wireless sound quality, the Px8 S2 McLaren Edition headphones are compatible with premium Bluetooth codecs. With support for aptX Lossless and aptX Adaptive, the headphones automatically optimise the sound quality, whatever the music source. If you enjoy Hi-Res Audio files, the true 24-bit audio connection ensures that you get the very best from your music. If you want the ultimate connection, wired USB-C and 3.5mm connectivity is also supported.
Outside noise – cancelled
Proof that not all ANC (Active Noise Cancelling) headphones are made equal, the Px8 S2 McLaren Edition cancels outside noise with outstanding precision. Eight microphones work with Bowers & Wilkins’s proprietary noise cancelling technology for superb background noise suppression, without affecting the musicality.
Bowers & Wilkins Music app with EQ function
Bowers & Wilkins Music app features an EQ mode. This lets you tailor the sound to precisely how you like it. For a bassier response, brighter treble or more pronounced mid-range, simply adjust the settings to suit. The app also has a range of other handy features, including ANC level control, battery life indicator and standby timer.
Crystal-clear call quality
Using ADI Pure Voice technology and a comprehensive 8-microphone array, the Px8 S2 McLaren Edition delivers the clearest speech yet. With more of the surrounding noise suppressed, your caller gets to hear you more clearly, while the ANC system ensures you get to hear them in absolute clarity, too.
Stunning McLaren Edition design
The smooth, timeless design of the regular Px8 S2 model is further enhanced with the McLaren Edition. The design integrates the unmistakable McLaren Papaya Orange finish together with Anthracite Grey, as well as subtle use of the McLaren Speedmark on both the headband and earcups. A diamond-cut bright edge on each elliptical logo plate and memory-foam cushions and headband trimmed in soft, luxurious Nappa leather deliver the ultimate, premium feel.
Extra-long battery life
With up to 30 hours battery life, the Px8 S2 McLaren Editions easily have enough juice for a week or two’s worth of commuting. What’s more, this is with Bluetooth and ANC activated, so you don’t have to go without noise isolation to get this battery life. If you’re in a hurry, just 15 minutes of charge is enough for seven hours playback.
Take a sound and style pole position, with the Bowers & Wilkins Px8 S2 McLaren Edition headphones.
