Buying call

Buy the Px8 if you want a headphone that looks and feels like jewelry and sounds the part: carbon cone 40mm drivers deliver rich, detailed sound, Nappa leather and cast aluminum arms feel premium, and you get 30 hours of battery with aptX Adaptive. Skip them if noise canceling or value is the priority, because the ANC is only good, and the cheaper Px7 S2e gets very close on sound.
