Ive seen my fair share of irresponsible, intentionally deceptive business practices as a former consumer electronics service manager and enthusiast, but B&W takes the cake. Bottom line: they knowingly continued production of the PX line of headphones despite discovering a fatal structural design flaw in the bands. These headbands will snap just below a pivot point that makes them essentially unserviceable and therefore very expensive to address given the quantities which these were sold in. The goodnews is youre likely to get ~2 years of daily use out of them, but i wouldnt count on much beyond that. And certainly dont take my word for it. take a look around: youtube, bestbuy, reddit, highfi forum review sections…one gentleman even purchased the URL (web.archive(dot)org/web/20211215194226/https(colon slash slash bowerswilkins-px(dotcom/ ) and created the website out of spite dedicated to the problem. There are plenty of hifi manufacturers out there, dont by Bowers and Wilkins.
