Are the Technics AZ100 some of the best earbuds you can get? Well, that’s what the next 1,000 words are for: Me to know and for you to find out. But if you want me to let you in on a little secret, come closer… Yes. Yes, they are.
With powerful, yet balanced bass, emotive and natural mids and clear treble, the sound quality is worth the $300 price tag. If you only listen to heavy genres like grunge you might be a little disappointed by the slight lack of detail in super muddy tracks, but for most people, I’m sure this isn’t a huge issue. I only noticed it in two of the many songs I listened to during testing. The clarity and control in every other genre more than made up for it.
