Hi!
Well, i actually will give it a try.
I will take my bose headphones to the audio store and compare them to the B&W
p7.
By the way have you had a chance to listen to the p3 model thats less expensive.
I wonder if they’re a good choice for that pricing?
And finally sorry for my missunderstanding and rudeness.
