aul Barton, founder and chief
designer of PSB Speakers, has a
well-deserved reputation for
creating many superb speakers
over the last four decades. When he
turned his attention to headphones in 2011,
the result was the critically acclaimed M4U
2 over-ear model with active noise
cancellation (ANC). Since then, PSB has
introduced several iterations of this
product: the M4U 1 (passive, no ANC), M4U
4 (wired in-ear monitors), M4U TW1
(Bluetooth in-ear monitors), and now the
M4U 8 Bluetooth over-ear headphones.
Let’s find out if this model upholds the
impressive legacy of PSB headphones.IMAGE: YAMAHA
