Compared with the usual gamble at this money—generic portable headphones or unknown-condition pairs—€68 for these lands slightly below the €70 median and inside the normal used band, so it reads as a fair buy rather than a steal or stretch. It’s close enough to the heart of the market that a buyer should feel comfortable if the listing is clean and the photos look honest.
The appeal here is the P5’s easygoing, classy on-ear tuning and solid build, which still make it a nice listen for portable use or a second system pair. If pads, cable, and headband are in good shape, the value is straightforward; the main thing to check is wear on the pads and hinges, since age is the usual issue on these rather than electronics.

Bowers & Wilkins traces its origins to 1966 in Worthing, West Sussex, England, when John Bowers, a passionate audio enthusiast and former electronics shop owner, founded the company with the help of a £10,000 bequest from a satisfied customer, Miss Knight. Bowers, who had honed his speaker-building skills as a hobby while running a radio and TV rental shop with partner Roy Wilkins, launched the venture from the back of that very shop. This modest beginning fueled a relentless pursuit of audio perfection, establishing Bowers & Wilkins as a British icon in high-fidelity sound reproduction.
The brand excels in premium loudspeakers, from flagship studio monitors like the legendary 801 series—adopted by Abbey Road Studios in 1979—to accessible Domestic Monitor lines such as the enduring 600 Series. Its portfolio has expanded to encompass high-end headphones, including the iconic P5 and Zeppelin designs, alongside wireless speakers and formation systems, all emphasizing advanced driver technology, precision cabinetry, and Continuum cones for unparalleled clarity.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Bowers & Wilkins commands respect among discerning audiophiles for its engineering excellence, musical accuracy, and heritage of innovation. Far from mid-tier or niche, it rivals the elite, blending cutting-edge research from facilities like Steyning with a reputation for reference-grade performance that defines luxury hi-fi.
