Bowers & Wilkins’ C5 earphones have a particular sonic signature: abundant bass, a full midrange, and forgiving high frequencies. Some will love them for precisely that balance, while others will find the bass overwhelming and the upper frequencies to...
Abstract: The C5 ($179.95) is the first ever in-ear, noise-isolating headphone from the British firm Bowers & Wilkins, which is of course best known for its high performance loudspeakers. Firms such as B&W enjoy a hard won reputation for knowing how high perfo...
Wonderfully rich and open sound. Includes inline mic with media controls. Exquisite buildquality. As beautiful to look at as they are to hear. Block out/isolate just enough sound to make them great for the outdoors
A perfect fit in your ears and yet a horrible fit in the case — the tacoshaped, chintzy cloth carrier comes with a perplexing (and unnecessary) internal cutout mount. Slightly confusing and unintuitive MFI controls. Hit the center button twice for next so
B&W zet met de C5 zonder enige twijfel een top in-ear in de markt. Nu is €199 niet gering, maar duur is het absoluut niet (overigens is hij goedkoper te vinden op internet). Steker nog: leg hem naast concurrenten en je zult horen dat het een koopje is....

Abstract: It’s amazing that in 2011, roughly 1,000 years after the earbud was originally created, a model could come along that’s actually innovative. But Bowers & Wilkins actually did it. The C5 in-ear headphones debuted several weeks back and I’ve been testin...
Mériterait un poil plus d'équilibre, Système de verrouillage discutable, Pas de mousses
Joli produit (dans tous les sens du terme), le C5 confirme qu'il faudra prêter attention aux nouveautés de B&W dans l'audio nomade. Le constructeur britannique est au courant de ce qu'est la musique, et il le démontre plutôt bien avec ce casque....
Powerful bass response; good sound quality overall; comfortable
Unusual design can be fiddly; expensive
The Bowers & Wilkins C5 earbuds offer a distinctive, classy design and a powerful sound that will please anyone who likes plenty of bass. They're expensive, but well worth investigating....

I totally want to make out with the industrial designer responsible for these buds. These suckers about as secure as Barack Obama's underwear drawer. An ingenious loop that sends the cable back through a passage in the speakers lets you use the wire to ho
Sponsored, Oh, tunneling terror! That stethoscoping sound! Make it stop! While the lower portion of the cable (below where the right and left speaker cables join) was well insulated and largely noise free, the upper portion had quite a bit of cable noise
AdvertisementThese are some delightful speakers. The bottom line is that they pack a massive sound into tiny buds. But even better, they stay in well and are exceptionally comfortable, even when you wear them for long periods of time. While theyre expens...
Gleich der erste Ohrhörer wird ein voller Erfolg für die englischen Sound-Spezialisten von Bowers&Wilkins. Der Klang ist natürlich, klar und räumlich, der Bassbereich sticht mit überragendem Tiefgang, hervorragender Präzision und ausgezeichnetem Nachdr...
