Excellent sound quality; good noise-isolation capability; sturdy construction; appealing design; useful in-cable remote control for iPods and the iPhone 3GS
Thin and delicate cable; low end may prove too dominant for some
The Bowers & Wilkins P5 headphones may cost a pretty penny, but they're well-built, look great and sound fantastic. Also, the in-cable remote control is a useful feature for iPod and iPhone users. If you're in the market for some high-end cans that yo...

Excellent build quality and rich, well-balanced sound, removable earpads, built-in mic and volume control turns the P5 into a headset for compatible iPhones and iPods, tight seal shuts out a lot of external noise and headphones don't leak sound, protective carrying case included.
Expensive, leather earpads will cause your ears to get steamy on warmer days.
