McLaren inspired
Celebrating a relationship that has been in place since 2015, the Px8 McLaren Edition is finished in elegant grey leather with Papaya orange details inspired by McLaren’s supercars and hypercars.
Designed highlights
The integration of McLaren Automotive cues is subtle yet stylish, with a Galvanic grey finish and Papaya orange highlights, the latter inspired by the famous Papaya orange that originated on founder Bruce McLaren’s early racing cars. A discreet tone-on-tone McLaren logo on the headband completes the headphones’ distinct and striking design.
Audio partners
The partnership is built on firm technical foundations, something that has already been recognized with three iF design awards for the system integrations of Bowers & Wilkins in the McLaren Speedtail, McLaren GT, and most recently, the hybrid McLaren Artura, which has once again raised the bar for audio performance thanks to close engineering collaboration and optimization.

A New Reference in Wireless Headphones
The Px8 combines its high-resolution 24-bit DSP brain with entirely new 40mm Carbon Cones that deliver exceptional resolution. By reducing distortion and enhancing high-frequency detail, the carbon cone captures nuances in your music that other headphones miss. With the Px8, you’ll hear more of what matters, more of the time.
Cancel the Noise, Not Your Music
The Px8 utilizes six microphones to achieve superior noise cancellation. This ensures unwanted distractions are shut out while preserving the dynamics and energy of your favorite music. The careful placement and angling of these microphones also guarantee exceptional call quality, even in noisy environments.
The New Leader in Headphone Design
The Px8 features luxurious materials and purposeful design. Its cast aluminum arms are both lightweight and rigid, ensuring superior durability. Meanwhile, sumptuous Nappa leather, combined with perfectly crafted memory foam earpads, provides all-day comfort and long-lasting durability. The design is completed with diamond-cut bright metal detailing, giving the Px8 a sleek, premium look.
Smart, Intuitive, Effortless
The Px8 integrates seamlessly with the Bowers & Wilkins Music App, allowing you to set your preferred noise cancellation transparency or adjust your EQ settings. You can launch your phone’s voice assistant with the touch of a button. With 30 hours of battery life, the Px8 lets you enjoy music all day long on just one charge.
Carbon Cones
Inspired by Bowers & Wilkins' award-winning 700 Series loudspeakers, the Px8 utilizes breakthrough Carbon Cone technology. The stiffer carbon-fiber cone minimizes distortion compared to standard headphone drive units, resulting in clearer sound. Coupled with an optimized motor system (with revised magnet, voice coil, and surround), this technology ensures unparalleled accuracy.
High-Resolution Sound with Advanced DSP
The Px8 utilizes aptX Adaptive wireless technology, which automatically optimizes music transmission from compatible phones, tablets, and computers. This is paired with Bowers & Wilkins-developed DSP (Digital Signal Processing) to deliver outstanding 24-bit sound quality from suitable streaming services and compatible devices. For even better performance, you can connect the Px8 to your computer via USB for wired, high-resolution audio.
Optimized Noise Cancellation
The Px8 employs proprietary noise cancellation technology, designed and optimized by Bowers & Wilkins. Six microphones work together to deliver the best results: two measure the output of each drive unit, two listen to ambient noise from the outside world, and two ensure outstanding voice performance, enhanced by Alango's noise suppression technology.
Bowers & Wilkins Music App
The Bowers & Wilkins Music App for iOS and Android gives you full control. Use the app to pair your headphones with your devices, fine-tune the sound EQ, adjust the noise-canceling transparency mode, and monitor battery levels. The physical controls on each earcup ensure you can stay in control, even if your phone isn't within reach.
