Bowers & Wilkins has announced a new limited edition version of their popular P5 headphones. The new headphones are a tie up with the Italian automaker Maserati. There isn’t much to differentiate these headphones from the normal P5 offerings that have been on the market. The only real difference is the price and the Maserati trident emblems on the special edition Maserati P5 headphones.
The P5 Maserati headphones have trident emblems on each side of the headband and on the soft carry case for the headphones. The biggest difference is that the Maserati Edition P5 headphones cost $100 more than the normal version. That is a lot of extra cash for new logos on the headphones. B&W have also announced an 805 Maserati edition loudspeaker set.
The 905 Maserati loudspeakers are made using birds eye maple wood veneer and black Maserati leather. The idea is that the speakers will make people think of the premium interior in the Maserati car. A pair of the 805 Maserati speakers will cost £7,500. As far as I can tell, the Maserati Edition 905 speakers only differ from the standard version in the materials used on the outside.
