I read a lot of review raving about Px8. I wasn’t about to pay $800 for them, but I got a pair at $450. Still wondering if they’re worth that even. Sound to me seems cloudy, and over bassy. I’d previously bought Focal Bathys after raving reviews and found them to be flat and thin and not coming anywhere near loud enough. Maybe my ears are too spoiled/ruined by the last 2 years of listening to mostly mid-tier IEM’s and my disappointment in these two cans is just because of bluetooth vs wired. Anyone else disappointed in Bathys or Px8?

I've ripped through every brand of cans I could find years ago, found B&W and never looked back. I've had three of them so far. Still on P5 S2 and everything else I've tried was just hollow in comparison. When these give up the ghost I was thinking Px7 S2e, as I can't really afford the Px8.

Which is to say, dunno about the model, but I swear by the brand.
