About the Bowers & Wilkins P3 Series 2
An accessible taste of the good life
An accessible taste of the good life
The B&W P3 series 2 headphones are made of high-grade materials like aluminum and leather.
When Bowers & Wilkins designed this second version of their P3 on-ear headphones, they didn't stray too far from the original — for good reason. The first series was a hit among Crutchfield customers and professional reviewers, so this is more of a refresh than a reboot. You still get the lightweight, elegant design, but like with any great sequel, they've raised the stakes a bit. Genuine leather lines the headband and earcups for a high-end look and feel.
B&W also tweaked the drivers for a more balanced, natural sound. Yet even with these extra perks, the price tag is reasonable — offering you a step into the luxury world of Bowers & Wilkins audio without breaking the bank.
Comfortable and portable
These 'phones are made for grab-and-go listening. They fold up into a compact bundle that slides into the included carrying case or your bag. When you take them out to wear them, the solid aluminum frame keeps them in place as you move.
Memory foam inside the leather headband and rectangular earpads helps cushion the snug fit. If a call comes through, you can simply punch the remote on the listening cable, and answer without removing the headphones. You can also control music and volume on an iPhone®.

Featured review
These headphones are top notch! Great sound, comfortable to wear and look good too. These are a quality build and I think produce a bit better sound over the first generation P3. Good price point as well.
