Technics - EAH-AZ60M2

I have the technics AZ60 and I love them. I also have the Bowers and Wilkins Px7S2, which sound maybe a touch better but are overshadowed by their connectivity issues. I use an iPhone.

i use my technics az60m2 when i work out. the super bass mode is not bad and sound quality is good anc is a bit of a hit or miss tbh

Mate, if they go toe-to-toe with the AZ80s, I'll be a very happy camper when my arrive in a couple of days! Have been really happy with my older AZ60s for the last few years, but they're just a tad bulky for certain situations - eg more vigorous exercise, etc, and thought these will be a good match.

Tried the AZ60M2EK and were AWESOME in terms of sound quality, but had to return them because they leak everything you are playing to the outside. You cannot imagine how bad it was, my husband and I were playing to recognize each other's songs wearing them from a few meters away and recognized all songs. Cannot imagine wearing them in the office or even worse, in a flight. I have my older Jabra Elite 75t and they are the almost-perfection in terms of (non) leakage. So hope AZ80* or even AZ100*s have better build regarding that.

Nice to hear! (Or to not hear, in this case) I may get a pair, really enjoyed the AZ60*, truly good headphones, those ones that make you "rediscover" music again, you want to hear each track one by one to appreciate how much detail it has on this pair.

I've tested Samsung Buds, AirPods, Jabra (from 75t which are my favorites to the newer Jabra Elite 10 Gen1), Redmi Buds 4 Pro, Xiaomi Buds, Sony XM5, Pixel Buds Pro, Technics AZ60M2EK... My choice was Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3, as they fit every checkbox (Technics had the best audio quality but suffered from leakage, all the office can hear what I'm listening to, same for Pixel Buds).

"best" is very subjective. That being said the Technics AZ60 M2 or the AZ80 are imo the best ear buds you can get. Edit: I'm bad at reading.

Battery life is great especially if you don't use LDAC, even on LDAC I get 3-5 hours of usage on a single charge. Technics is owned by Panasonic, they make batteries so they know what they are doing. The earbuds shape on the 80s is super comfortable, the 60s I find less comfortable but not the worst either. They both come with 7 ear tip shapes and sizes so you're likely good to find a good fit. I swapped out for aftermarket tips myself but I can wear them pretty much all day.

AZ60M2 are overall solid option, I can't fault them on anything, and if I lost them, wouldn't even bother researching other options and just buy them again (on discount if possible).

Hoping to see AZ100. Have been happy with AZ60 and want to try upgrade. Will make AZ60 workout buds and AZ100 for everything else

Recently bought the Technics AZ60 on woot for a steal. Amazed by the sound quality but I wanna try out the Technics AZ80 or the Denon Perl Pro

Great down to earth comparison! I currently have the AZ60's and Galaxy Buds Pro 2's, which took over from my AZ60's as my daily driver. Over all, the Pro's offer a better package than the AZ60's with only multipoint missing, which is a feature I love! Saying that switching devices with the Pro 2's has become second nature....Pro 2's offer better sound, anc, battery life, build and that nice eco system if you have a Samsung phone. Still love my AZ60's, though, and will only upgrade should the buds break or an unbelievable deal rears it head. Again, thanks for the great comparison 👍🏽

Well, for me its anything in the Technics range, from the AZ60's through to the AZ100's....the Buds 2 Pro's are a decent bet, BUT the fit isn't the best, meaning the passive isolation isn't great, which in turn, means the ANC is undermined and no true multipoint👎🏽. My Sennheiser momentum 2's were great but lost one earbud 😭 My B&W's sounded lovely but bluetooth stability was pretty atrocious, so sent them back. Jabra 75t's were poor. Sony XM4'S were poor...sent back I recently got the Poly Voyager Free 20's...thought I'd give them a go and have been really impressed so far. Got a brand new pair of ebay for 39quid but now Amazon UK 🇬🇧 have reduced the price from 94quid to 39.99....an absolute steal 👌🏽

I have many different buds of different quality. favorite is the Technics az100. It is as good as advertised. I like it better than the Sony, Bose. I had an earlier pair of the az60, which is excellent, but you can actually hear significant differences, including the depth of the bass and the fantastic sound stage. If you've got the money, they are worth the investment.
