Design
McLaren Automotive design cues are subtle but stylish, with a Galvanic grey finish and Papaya orange highlights, the latter inspired by the famous Papaya orange which originated on founder Bruce McLaren’s early racing cars. A discreet tone-on-tone McLaren logo on the headband completes the headphones’ distinct and striking design. The partnership is built on firm technical foundations, something that has already been recognized with three iF design awards for the system integrations of Bowers & Wilkins in the McLaren Speedtail, McLaren GT, and most recently, the hybrid McLaren Artura, which has again raised the bar for audio performance thanks to close engineering collaboration and optimization.
App Controlled
With the Bowers & Wilkins Music app you can stream your favourite songs direct to your Px8 McLaren Edition, browse our suggested playlists, or let us suggest new tunes for you. We support Qobuz, Tidal and Deezer at launch, with more to follow, but whatever you play, you’ll hear the True Sound of the performance – because for us, there’s no other way to listen.
