Description

The award-winning Bowers & Wilkins Pi8 wireless headphones now come in a special McLaren edition in Galvanic Grey & Papaya Orange.

The Bowers & Wilkins Pi8 McLaren brings reference-level audio to wireless in-ear headphones. The new design means the headphones fit better in the ear and provide more space for the four microphones located in the headphones, which means even better noise cancellation and call capabilities. The headphones come with four different sizes of ear tips – including an extra small size for those with small ears.

The hybrid technology of the Wear Sensor function with IR detection and capacitive sensors further improves wear detection. The headphones pause playback when you take them out of your ears and resume playback when you put them back in, with even greater reliability.

Enjoy your music as 12 mm carbon cone drivers enhance high-frequency detail. Bluetooth aptX Lossless enables the transfer of 24-bit/96 kHz music files from compatible sources. Advanced noise cancellation automatically adapts to the environment, while four microphones per earbud ensure uninterrupted music and phone calls.

The headphones have a continuous battery life of up to 6.5 hours with noise cancellation enabled. The smart charging case provides up to 13.5 hours of additional battery life. Like the previous generation, the Pi8 smart case also supports Wireless Audio Retransmission, which allows you to connect an external audio source to the charging case and then wirelessly transmit the sound to the earbuds. This allows you to connect the case with a cable, for example, to an airplane entertainment system or a music player’s headphone jack and enjoy high-quality wireless audio transmission directly to your earbuds.
