"Sound quality is much more “open” and detailed than Bose. ... However, the sound quality still better than the Sony. ... Nothing else about the Bose or Sony’s really blow me away like the sound quality does on the Technics. ... I would recommend Bose to someone looking for earbuds for the gym or other loud environments, Technics for someone looking for the best listening experience and sound quality. ... However, I still believe the Technics are the best listening experience. ... For sound quality of the three I’d go 1) Technics ... The Sony and Technics remind me of each other with the Technics sounding better to me"


"The sound definition is levels above due to the ldac codec. You can change settings in Apple music for High def audio."


"I can hear a significant increase in quality between my AZ-100s and everything else I own. ... Then I'll listen on my AZ-100s and I'll think "*that* sounds good." ... Less harshness in the trebles (regardless of EQ), more clarity, better instrument separation, bass presence without booming or bleeding... ... They're warm, and not harsh, but still have clarity. ... And I just love the sound signature, especially for the music I listen to (jazz/fusion, indie rock, pop, classic rock, classical, some electronic/"focus" stuff.)"

"A very nice phone quality with the best ANC phone call noise block ever seen in the world."


"The AZ100s have a superpower that will actually turn on ANC for a SPLIT SECOND (like a tenth of a second!!) when they detect a loud sound like a clanking, or even my kids screeching and screaming...it is AMAZING!!"


"The battery life is nuts, too. Like 10+ hours with ANC on."

"They have something called: voice focus Ai, on calls disturbing noises are filtered away. ... My home is being renovated, lots of drilling and stuff. When on a phone I call the other side hears nothing of the construction noises."


"Calls in a noisy place with the MyVoice AI, and transparency mode unfortunately beat out the sound quality as the deal breaker. I'll sadly return the Pi8s and happily roll with the AZ100s."

"ANC is b-tier for earbuds that cost so much ... They also have subpar ANC for their price, it ’s measurably behind other earbuds in the same price region (and those that cost much less)"


"The Az100 has awful ANC. ... Idk what you’ve used before but their ANC is worse than APP, Gemini II, Jabra 85, and Pi8. I’ve used them all in the same setting and it’s terrible in comparison. ... I’ve worn them all in the same environments (supermarket, gym, etc.) and they’re the worst performing of them all for ANC."


"ANC sucks ass. ... Then you haven't been inside a grade 4 classroom"

"I never liked the lack of punch they have. ... I spent an hour each day across 4 days trying to EQ them with music I listen to and they never sounded how I wanted. ... I didn ’t like the way they sounded, deal with it."


"oh so muddy bass"


"The Technics sound is somewhat blurry—guitar is very hard to hear; you need to focus to catch it. ... The bass comes too much from the left and right, making the vocals (especially female vocals) seem behind the lead instruments, causing muddiness. ... The kick and snare sound very lifeless and do not feel as clean as on Nothing Ear (using a reference EQ like the Sennheiser HX EQ—I copy from somebody, ignore the name as it’s not the real Sennheiser). ... Overall, the instrument separation is about 15% worse than Nothing Ear (EQ), and the sound quality is 18% worse than Nothing Ear overall. ... The sound of the electric guitar, drums, guitar is not as good as on Nothing Ear, even with Technics’ EQ. ... In the Technics, the vocals seem to blend with the drums, whereas in the Nothing Ear, the vocals are positioned in front, with the drums and snare behind them. This results in the Nothing Ear having clearer vocal and mid sound."

"one thing I don’t like about the Technics case is that it looks cheap—like cheap plastic. ... For those who think the lid is aluminum because it looks that way, no—it’s plastic, and the joint of the lid wobbles a little. ... When you shake it a little, you can hear the plastic sound. That is so cheap, bruhhh, omg. ... The magnet is also not strong; you can shake it and the earbuds fall out, even if the lid is still off. I use very low force to shake it, and since the case is small and the earbuds are easy to pull out, I’ll skip all my blame here. ... Cheaper look."


"its lid and magnet are pretty weak, meaning that any drop will result in the earbuds spilling out."


"Despite being expensive, one thing I don’t like about the Technics case is that it looks cheap—like cheap plastic. ...

That is so cheap, bruhhh, omg. ... The magnet is also not strong; you can shake it and the earbuds fall out, even if the lid is still off. ... why the heck does the Technics product feel so cheap? Even when unboxing, I felt Nothing was better than Technics."
