Adaptive Noise Cancellation
The Bowers & Wilkins PX features adaptive noise cancellation designed to reduce surrounding environmental noise during travel, commuting, office work, and everyday listening.
Ambient pass-through functionality allows surrounding sounds such as conversations and announcements to be heard when needed without fully removing the headphones.
aptX HD Bluetooth Audio
The PX supports Bluetooth 4.1 with aptX HD, along with AAC and SBC codecs.
Compatible source devices can take advantage of aptX HD for higher-quality wireless audio playback.
40mm Full-Range Drivers
The PX uses two 40mm full-range dynamic drivers positioned at an angle inside the ear cups to help create a natural stereo presentation.
-
Driver Size: 40mm
-
Frequency Range: 10Hz–20kHz
-
Passive Impedance: 22 ohms
-
Sensitivity: 111 dB/V @ 1kHz
Smart Wear Sensors
Built-in wear sensors allow the PX to respond automatically to how the headphones are being used.
Removing or lifting an ear cup can pause compatible audio playback, while wearing the headphones again can resume playback. The sensors also support automatic power-management functions.
Long Battery Life
Bowers & Wilkins originally specified the following maximum operating times under supported conditions:
-
Bluetooth with ANC: Up to 22 hours
-
Bluetooth without ANC: Up to 29 hours
-
Wired with ANC: Up to 33 hours
-
Wired without ANC: Up to 50 hours
Actual battery life on a pre-owned unit will vary based on battery age, volume level, noise-cancellation use, connection method, and operating conditions.
Wireless, USB-C & Wired Listening
The PX offers three primary audio connection options:
- Bluetooth wireless audio
- USB-C digital audio from a compatible computer
- 3.5mm analog wired audio
This flexibility allows the PX to work with a broad range of compatible phones, tablets, computers, audio players, and traditional headphone outputs.
Calls & Controls
Built-in controls allow compatible playback, volume adjustment, noise-cancellation functions, and phone-call operation directly from the headphones.
A built-in microphone supports compatible wireless telephone calls.
Important App Compatibility Information
The original PX was designed to work with the legacy Bowers & Wilkins Headphones app for functions such as noise-cancellation configuration, wear-sensor sensitivity, connection management, and firmware updates.
The legacy Bowers & Wilkins Headphones app is no longer broadly distributed through current mobile app stores. Buyers should not purchase this legacy model specifically for app-dependent functionality.
Core Bluetooth, wired audio, USB audio, playback controls, and on-device headphone functions do not depend on the current Bowers & Wilkins Music app.
