Technics EAH AZ100s - they are comfortable and have a great sound signature. Lots of favourable reviews on here. I personally tested the AZ100s, the Perl Pros and, regrettably, ended up getting some AT TWZ9mK2s. Wish I went with the Technics.

So far so good, Still my favorite, I know they will last long for me since I have several other comparable TWS earbuds from Sony, Bowers & Wilkins and Technics(2nd favorite) and keep using them all, so I don't put too much mileage on them, on purpose. Also, never wear them outside in the Canadian harsh winter, because I have my combat ones from SoundPeats, Jabra, JBL, Earfun and Sennheiser (CX CX plus and Sport) for that task, which are all under $100, if they break, no biggie. I still have and use my Momentum 2 as well.

Technics - ich habe mehrere Modelle ausprobiert, die alle ok waren, solange die kleinsten Gummis drauf waren. Bei denen mit Noise Cancelling musst du vielleicht aufpassen, die sind ein bisschen größer.

Good job but something u should mention is what settings u used for each device For example in some situations the anc for the jbl is much imrovoe if u use auto compensation mode Also for the Technics adjusting the anc settings per situation can make a huge difference The jbl and technics have very advanced options that can make huge differences when testing anc. In my case with auto compensation off the jbl is good but not amazing. When turned on though.. Completely different performance... Annoyingly with the technics I find myself having to adjust anc pre optimisation levels depending on the environment because it does not do it automatically
