Great detailed review! As soon as you said the H95 needs 100% volume all the time, that was the dealbreaker for that. I'm going for the PX8
Having experienced both headphones I tend to agree with your observations. The H95 has the style and quality whilst the PX8, by no means lacking in quality, takes the prize for better sound quality. Both are luxury products but for me, the music quality is paramount so it’s the Px8 for me.
I had B&W entry level and I was satisfied with sound quality (I'm a Bose guy when I tried Sony I gave them back immediately) so I think B&W is more similar to Bose, correct?
Very thorough review/comparison. I own the Px8, but I love the folding bit with the Beoplay and the metal case!!!
So much thought has gone into making the H95 case. It really is amazing
I recently bought the B&W Px7 S2 recently which are similar to the PX8, albeit slightly downmarket, but the H95 just exudes quality and luxury. They look beautiful and the volume and ANC rotary dials look like a brilliant idea. But as you say there are other things to consider when choosing a pair of headphones.
Incredible review. I will be listening to both of them in person tomorrow but this gave me exactly the perspective I needed going into the listening. I think in the end I will go with the PX8 because of the vocals and volume since I will be using them on house music when in the gym and traveling. They are also thinner and fit easier in a laptop back pack.
exactly- also I have the same contraint. There is no 3P for cover of BH95
Awesome pair! Both of them are really solid options. Presonally I would go for Bang and Olufsen. Thanks for this material, cheers!
Yes I would too. Cause my music taste and the sound signature of BnO in general is a good match
@@TechKnowBiz what is the music style that fit to b&o
I imagine a PX8 in that brown color like the H95 would look amazingly elegant.
And you now could see a new Royal Burgundy color of B&W PX8 in their stores
Thanks for a great and thorough review of these two top performing bluetooth wireless headphones. I ended up buying the PX8 in part because of the streamlined fit. Your review allowed me to clearly see how both headphones look when being worn out and about on an average sized head. I think the H95 looks large and bulky on the head due to the flat pad and protruding conical control plates. I think the PX8 sits more compactly on the ears, and has a more integrated build. It does not stick out as much. I was also wary of the H95's volume issues. And then there is the price difference.
Which are better for jazz music ?
Great video! Are the earcups the same size? I found the 95’s to be too small for me
Px8 are bigger and more comfortable
why you always have the comparison that a audiophile wanted!! that's fire!!! thanks!
this comment just made my day. haha. Thanks bro
Thank you
Would like some feedback on how the PX8s go on calls in normal office environments? I don't often make calls in noisey places, but better ANC is important to me.. and I feel like B&W support/longevity is better. B&O don't offer any parts or repairs on their gear outside of warranty - which commits $1600 headphones to landfill in 3 years! Thats pretty disappointing. I currently have HXs, EQs and have had H9is and E8s - but I am tending towards giving B&W a try this time.
I own the H95 and want to sell them because of a "pzzzzzz" sound during calls while transparency mode on. I went to hifi shop and tried out the following models during a noisy environment:
-Beoplay H95
-Focal Bathys
-Solitaire T
-Bowers and Wilkins PX8
I have a Samsung Note 20 Ultra. Let me be clear: they all sucked however the call quality of the PX8 was by far the best. The biggest disappointment was the Focal Baths. That was unusable.
yeah I feel the same way. For me the Focal bathys was the worst of the lot especially in windy area. like litrally chopped off my voice to an extent where the other person on the call did not even hear a full sentence. But I would also recommend the PX8 for call quality. They have done a better job.
@@karolykrausz5534 I picked up a pair of h95 used and it was affected by buzzy transparency on calls. I returned them too. I have HXs and EQs currently, neither behave like h95s. I don’t know if it was a large batch of bad units, as a lot of people report they are great. I think H95s sound amazing, the sub bass response compared to my HXs is amazing as is the better isolation for ANC, but I am really not sure if I can risk buzzing and Bluetooth noise. Surely they aren’t all like that?
@@karolykrausz5534 So the Px8 are better than the H95? What did you end up buying then?
Hi. thanks for compariso,n. Just a question to me. Is it easy to remove in PX8 the ear cups?
I have both and yes is easy like the bose quite comfort
Which ones you guys will recommend me for electronic music listening. still dont know which one of those to buy
Which you get
Damn It’s so hard to make a decision with px8 and h95
You should choose PX8 and you will not disappoint about your decision after burn-in of over 100 hrs listening to your favorite songs
It all comes down to preference: so try to test them both and then make your decision. That was the way I did it 2 years ago. Still very happy with my H95. But, he, make your own decision after testing.
@TECHKNOW BIZ
I own the momentum 4 from Sennheiser and I want a pair of headphone that neutralizes the drawbacks and negatives of the momentum. Which one which you recommend among H95, Px8, and Bathys?
For example, since the Momentum 4 has an excellent noise cancellation, I wouldn't require a high standard of noise cancellation.
I love the Bathys and the PX8 personally. So I would recommend either of the both. But if you are after a more balanced sound signature then the H95 for sure.
i am struggling between the Bathys and the h95, both have excellent sound quality but I tend to have a more natural sound. But I also want the sound to be spacious because i often use my headphones to watch movies.
Also which one is the most durable? Another UA-camr mentioned that the material used on the top of the Bathys could age quickly
I had a pair of momentum 4, excelent sound, but not a great noise canceling and poor build quality and anoying touch pad, still I miss that sound and i'll buy them again. I own now a pair of PX 8 and I love them in every aspect but somehow after testing the H95 I kind of want that type of sound more! Dont get me wrong , px 8 have a crisp and cristal clear sound but somehow, for me at least, the warm sound of h95 cannot be besten!
I have chose latest lunar red H95 because it's feel more premium at the same price (in my country; about 100k JPY)
oh the Lunar Red looks like a million dollars 😍. Good choice. I got my H95 before this special edition was released
Nice choice H95 in Lunar red is eye-catching. However it cost USD 1000 in Taiwan. 😂 I should get one in Japan.
More premium? With plastic on earcups? OK 😁
❤❤❤
how loud do you listen to music!?
Hi all. You have to try the Focal Bathys if you get a chance. They are on another level (especially imaging and soundstage)
yes. i agree to that whole heartedly
Heard many say prefer px8 . In sound demos bathys sound a little light and detailed.. personally have other wired headphones far better for that. Recently bought px8 and love the lush sound
@@Tkarma77 Have you tried the H95? I just ordered the H95 and PX8 lol
Awesome comparaison! I went for the Px8 007 Edition. The H95 sounded too artificial to my taste 🤷♂️
I'm choosing between PX8 and HX (pretty similar to H95). What would be better for modern active music? Seems like PX8? B&O seems are better for vocal, classic etc. 🤔
I’m thinking about the Px8 McLaren edition. That or the $1200 Rolls Royce Headsets
How could anyone choose between those two pairs of headphones based on the sound quality alone?
When I tested the Px8, my big issue was that the bass was making the voice muddier. So I went for the px7 instead :)
I still think the sound is better on the h95 tho.
Yeah H95 are really good. Always gives the same performance in all kinds of Genres. With the PX8 some tweaking is required in certain genres to get the best out of them
Что посоветуете? Слушаю всё: от джаза до электронной музыки. Но чаще dram'n'bass. Хотелось бы громкие наушники с ударным басом, но и чтобы иногда получать удовольствие от детальности, от тарелочек в джазе.😊

I realöy dont know what to buy
I‘m loosing my head about the Airpod Max the Momentum 4 and the H95
I relly dont care about the price but want a good Sound experience, do you have any tips?
I think the Focal Bathys is sounds really good sonically. Plus they have a DAC mode which will bring out even more clarity in music.
Well i own some Beyerdynamics sound wise for mixing and producing.. i just dont like the Look of them… Right now i just need some good looking bluethoot headphones to use them on the goa BaO H95 and Airpods look the best in my opinion the sennheiser is a bit retro vibes which is not my goal…
Thank you for the help!
Ah and i‘m in The IOS Ecosytem with a apple watch and iPhone even tho i use Windows for work alot aswell
@@jasonjim6754 Airpods Max is always a good contender if you have even 1 iOS device and they look good too
So in a 1vs1 you‘d tend to airpods rather than the H95…
I dont really care to be honest i just want good sound quality… so in other words do you really feel a drastic diffrence from the sound quality of these two if yes i think i‘d go with the BaO
Px8 does 🔊 like a better option
I love B&O but their products never get loud enough for me.
agreed
SAME!!!
The h95 all the way
B&W P7 wireless is way better than any of them with a magic 3-D soundstage that beats. FOCAL CLEAR, AUDEZE LCD X, STAX 900, SENNHEIZER HD650
Will never purchase bang and olufson again ..had 2 pairs of h90 and both died after 12 months 😫
I own the PX8, have owned many products from both B&W and B&O. And I feel like the build quality is superior to the H95, I was shocked at how flimsy they and the HX felt as I have owned both the H6 and H9 which was way more sturdy.
Feewings
That's where we know you are lying. Both are excellent built.
The drivers are made of a layer of titanium, not the outside, that is made of aluminium. Good review though
I will never Buy Beoplay. I bought earbuds and they broke because the glue stop keeping the buds together. To me ... Beoplay is Cheap.
Sorry, but PX8 is basically a copy-cat cheaper version of H95. Especially if you take a look at their burgundy and white colours, you'll see how unoriginal bowers&wilkins is. It's a shame, and I'm surprised they're not sued yet.
To all those who read reviewers' reviews of Bowers & Wikins PX8, please don't believe them at all because I am Singaporean and purchased my Bowers & wikins on 18th September 2023 from Jaben Singapore. Totally disappointing and not cheap at SGD 935.00.
The sound quality is a complete let down as they claim the sound is ever so good I can honestly tell you it is complete rubbish why the bass frequencies are very boomy and muddy sound instead of clean bass. The mid-range vocals are very suppressed and lack richness and warmth. After adjusting the equalizer settings, the high frequencies are very bright sounding.
The noise canceling is the worst, when I turn on the active noise canceling I 100% hear the noise of the standing fan wind spinning.
Overall, everything claimed by those reviewers on UA-cam is untrue as they did not purchase the Bowers & wikins PX 8 themselves but loaned it to them for review purposes only. Please note, if not, you will regret it after buying it with your hard-earned money! ! ! ! ! !😊
Were you paid by B&O to say this
@@zeteal7347 NO !!! I have the Bowers & Wilkins PX8 after listening to you ,YOutuber claiming SKY HIGH on the performance on the PX8 , and bought it with my HARD EARN MONEY !!! in my totally horrible experience the set is full of bloody shit of NONSENSE at all that is claim !!!!!!!
