Bowers & Wilkins Pi7 S2 review: Awesome sound, average ANC
Rockin’ With The Pi7 S2
Are you a fan of rocking out to some awesome tunes without any distractions? The Bowers & Wilkins Pi7 S2 headphones are here to deliver supremely crisp, powerful sound with a little extra ANC thrown in the mix. Is it worth the price tag? Read on to find out.

The Good Stuff
Let’s get the ball rolling with what we love:
- Engaging soundstage: The Pi7 S2’s deliver an awesome soundstage with an out of this world experience for your aural senses. It’s like concert-style sound in your living room! Thumping bass and crystal clear treble sounds like nothing you’ve ever heard before.
- Stylish design: We don’t like to dwell on looks, but the folks at Bowers & Wilkins have not held back on style. The semi-matte black exterior with red trim is sure to turn heads anything you go.
- Lightweight and comfortable: Comfortably lightweight and snug in all the right areas, the Pi7 S2 give it’s wearer an experience of supreme comfort. It’s so comfortable you can wear these all day!
The ‘Annoying’ Bits
We can’t talk about the Pi7 S2’s without mentioning the less good bits:
- Average ANC: Now this is an obvious nitpick for a pair of noise cancelling headphones. The sound isolation is decent, but nothing to write home about. Not a huge downside if you’re mostly listening indoors, but it’ll let more sound in if you’re travelling.
- Big price tag: The biggest downside of the Pi7 S2’s is the rather ambitious $500 price tag. That’s a pretty penny to spend on a pair of headphones – even if they do happen to be awesome.
The Final Word
The Bowers & Wilkins Pi7 S2 are a great pair of headphones for anyone looking for awesome sound quality. The average ANC’s and hefty price tag may not be for everyone, but hey – if you’ve got the cash to splurge, you’ll definitely enjoy your purchase!
