Bower & Wilkins P5 Series 2 Black Headphones

Introducing the latest edition of our classic on-ear noise-isolating headphones. This edition retains the original’s understated style and luxurious leather ear pads, while raising the bar for sound quality thanks to an all-new drive unit design.

The result is a whole new standard for on-ear headphone acoustics. The sound is wonderfully open and spacious. Bass is powerful but also natural and controlled. Subtle details are revealed and brought to life.

You’ll forget the headphones, and just feel the music.


The drivers in P5 Series 2 are designed to work like those in a Hi-Fi speaker, with a more precise, controlled movement. The result? A giant leap forward in sound quality.

P5 Series 2’s ear pads feature an acoustically optimised grille pattern. This allows air to move freely through the pads, reducing acoustic impedance to a minimum.

Tuning requires fine judgement and an expert set of ears. For P5 Series 2, we’ve relied on the best ears in the business, using the same tuning team responsible for our flagship 800 Series speakers.
