Bowers & Wilkins launches its first over-ear hi-fi
cans with clever folding design
B&W adds P7
headphones
With speaker-inspired drive unit technology and
all-encompassing ear cushions giving noise isolation with high levels of
comfort, the new over-ear P7 design “allows you to lose yourself in music”,
says the maker. The dual-cavity construction means that the ear pads mold to
the contours of the wearer’s head and the snug fit means comfort is maintained
and sound is optimized for every listener, it continues. Moving parts are
constructed from brushed and stainless steel, as is the folding mechanism. The
logo plates are crafted from brushed aluminum and the headband and ear pads are
encased in luxuriously soft leather. Supplied with a detachable remote and mic
cable for iPhones, the new P7 joins the existing P3 and P5 headphone models.
