Alternatives to Consider
Technics EAH-AZ100
Technics
The reference standard. Technics borrowed their magnetic fluid driver technology from the $1,199 EAH-TZ700 wired IEMs, creating what multiple reviewers call 'the best TWS sound under $400.'
Bowers & Wilkins Pi8
Bowers & Wilkins
The audiophile's luxury choice brings B&W's carbon cone driver technology from their acclaimed PX8 headphones into TWS form. Revolutionary case retransmission feature.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4
Sennheiser
Inherits DNA from Sennheiser's legendary IE 200/600/900 wired IEM series. Crutchfield calls these 'the best-sounding truly wireless headphones available.'
Sony WF-1000XM5
Sony
The refined all-rounder with Sony's 8.4mm Dynamic Driver X and industry-leading noise cancellation. Smallest and most comfortable premium earbuds available.
