Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 1. They sounded the best of any earbud I have ever tried, ever, and the fit is perfect. I have tried many - Technics AZ80, DenonPerl Pro, Bose Ultra Open, Bose Quietcomfort, AirPods Pro, Sennheiser MTW3, Jabra Elite 10, Jaybird Vista, and others. None were better than what I already have, the MTW1. It’s a real shame that the later generations of MTW were not nearly as good sounding to me as the gen 1. It sucks because my MTW1 battery only last about 30 min these days, but I still use them when I want to really “listen”, because the sound quality can’t be beat. I would buy them again in a heartbeat if I could find another pair with a battery that was guaranteed fresh.
I own the technics AZ80s and enjoy them for everything especially ambient and deep beats. I hear the a Z 100 are even better. Perhaps they are also worth a look.
Meh, I bought some then sold them after a week as I thought they were crap.
I used to dislike mine thinking i have bought an overhyped product. It definitely grows on you, specially if one knows Eq. I mostly listen to metal and the sub bass and soundstage are really impressive. I eq mine the same as how I eq my az80s, scoop the lower mids a bit and elevate the treble response.
Picked these up a month ago and they’re solid.
I liked my AX80s better too.
Same loved my AZ80s till one bud died, I would buy again and hopefully I will with the right price. Oddly my SENN MTW3 had a dead bud too. The new ones mtw4 and az100 have been awesome.
