Unique styling
Lavish build quality
The editors didn't like
Ostentatious
Painful $400 pricetag
Took nearly 30 hours to burn in. Ladies may not take to kindly to the bulky design. Would have been nice if the inline remote worked for other smartphones and not just iOS. Price may put some off
But you get what you pay for
Expensive
Not as much longterm comfort as less expensive P5 or P3
Carrying case
Leather earpads will cause your ears to get steamy on warmer days
Some remote features may not work with Android or Windows devices
Carrying case isn't protective enough
Conclusion
Bowers & Wilkins has found the sweet spot with the P7 headphones. They are comfortable
Detailed
Dynamic
And musically engaging. They have the ability to resolve music in ways that I've never heard before on tracks that I've listened to hund
Price — all that handstitched leather ain't cheap. Designed for portability and isolation
So unless you have a noisy home
They aren't as desirable for home listening
Not quite as graceful looking as B&W's onear models
Abstract: It seems headphones by Bowers and Wilkins bring all the essential delights. They deliver top-quality sound, have a superb design, and include genuine sheepskin leather. However, an experienced music lover will pay close attention to the model's specific f...

Abstract: I've heard many of these phones, I even bought the AT ( which I gave to one of my neighbor's kids ). I agree the Oppo is the nicest of the bunch, I heard them at one of the Meets, they didn't inspire me to replace my Sennheisers but could have been a full...

Abstract: It's ludicrous but true: How headphones look can be nearly as important as how they sound. Luckily for anybody who slides a pair of Bowers & Wilkins P7s over their ears, these high-end headphones do double duty. They will bamboozle your ears as well as yo...
