BowersWilkins and supercar maker McLaren celebrate their longstanding partnership with a special edition pair of Px8 wireless noise-canceling headphones.
Luxury British supercar maker McLaren is known for making some of the world’s fastest cars. But watch how fast your money leaves your wallet when you get a load of its latest collaboration with longtime audio partner Bowers & Wilkins — the Px8 McLaren Edition headphones, which launched today and retail for $799.
The special-edition headphones were dreamed up to celebrate the two companies’ partnership, which goes back to 2015 when B&W began developing audio systems for McLaren’s cars, and the recent launch of McLaren’s hybrid supercar, the ridiculous Artura, which is of course kitted out with B&W sound. Earlier this year the two companies renewed their vows, locking in a new multiyear deal with B&W becoming McLaren’s “Official Audio Partner.
The Px8 are also made for high-quality audio playback and feature Qualcomm’s aptX Adaptive Bluetooth codec technology. You’ll need a compatible phone, though — sorry, iPhone users. But if you truly want to hear what these over-ear headphones can do, you can use the Px8’s direct-digital USB-C connection for lossless 24-bit audio or a DAC and the included 3.5mm-to-USB cable if you’re an iPhone user.

Unveiled in December 2017 by McLaren, the Senna is a limited-run machine with just 500 models in existence. Borrowing elements from the 720s, the Senna builds upon that platform and brings more power, more presence and extensive aerodynamics that make it both clinical to drive and beautiful to look at. The Twin-Turbo V8 engine generates a staggering 789bhp! This means the Senna is good for 0-62mph time of just 2.8 seconds and a top speed of 208mph. This 2019 (19) example has covered just 3,600 miles from new, has had just two owners in its lifetime and it also comes with the benefit of a McLaren Warranty running until May 2023. No expens
