These headphones have become my absolute fave – and they’ve hit their lowest ever price in this early Black Friday deal

I've spent years putting headphones through their paces and have tested some of the best products on the market, so I'm not easily impressed. But even I was taken aback when I saw that you can buy the Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S3 for $384.99 (was $449) at Amazon US.

Based in the UK? Don't panic: you can still get these headphones for their best-ever price on your side of the Atlantic. You can currently buy them for £375.97 (was £399) at Amazon UK – while it's a more modest discount, it still brings the Px7 S3 down to their lowest ever price there too.

There's a reason these headphones have become my immediate go-to for most situations. Not only are they all kinds of comfortable, their sound is precise and staggeringly well-positioned, situating each instrument in its own distinct position in the soundstage. And this lower-than-ever price – reducing them by more than $60 – makes them an even more compelling purchase.

While the Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S3 are also at their lowest ever price in the UK, this is still a less impressive discount than in the US. But audio deals often land stateside first, so it's worth regularly checking in on these headphones in Britain too, as you could well see further reductions as Black Friday draws nearer.

Having spent over three months listening to them for more than eight hours a day, it's safe to say I'm a big fan of these cans. As we explained in our Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S3 review, they have 'near-perfect sound', with a soundstage that's ultra-wide and exhibits exquisite separation of different instruments. After all, there's a reason they've become my go-to pair of headphones for audio quality.

Moreover, I love how beautifully balanced they are. They show off the full frequency range, neither ducking certain frequencies nor artificially boosting them – you won't find any of those cheap tricks where bass is boosted at the expense of the lower mids here. Even treble is crisp and detailed without ever getting that glassy harshness that suggests the high-end is overdriven.

Admittedly, this kind of quality doesn't come cheap – hence that hefty $449 / £399 list price – but I'd argue they're well worth the spend, particularly once you factor in this serious saving. And if you want even more gorgeous sound, it's worth considering the super-premium Bowers & Wilkins Px8 S2 – they're unlikely to get a discount just yet, but they also offer some of the best audio we've experienced from a mainstream headphone brand.
