    Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?

    Folks, after more than 1 1/2 years I'm still very happy with my Technics EAH-AZ60. The only thing that's starting to bother me is their comfort, being stuck rather deep inside my ear canal. Now I know that this is part of the concept - a bit of noise isolation combined with active noise...

    One does not simply ignore Blaze and the Monster Machines. Imagine for a second what kind of Lovecraftian horror goes on in that world. Hair growing out of cars. Gelatinous eyes fused with iron frames. Animals, born with wheels. Only a handful of humans left, forced by the almighty machines with...

    It's a weird time, isn't it? I find myself thoroughly unimpressed by the earbuds landscape at the moment. No breakthroughs in terms of size - it's time they're getting smaller! - or ANC (who's ready for massive Shure-like passive isolation combined with high class digital noise cancelling?), and...

    Alright, here's my opinion: there's nothing like the Elite 75t. There, I said it. I think they're some of the best truly wireless headphones ever made. There's something about the size of that case, about their shape, about the haptic feedback when pressing the buttons (no touch surface, no -...

    The BT transmitter is a fantastic feature that really came in handy more often than I thought - flying of course, but also making my older 7.1 receiver able to pair with wireless earbuds which is kind of cool. Loved it. What I didn't love was the fact that I couldn't switch between ANC /...

    When I'm back home I'l check my TrueGrips for that lip, to be honest I don't remember. But they didn't fall off, for what it's worth. The 75ts are a great base for passive noise isolation since their nozzle is smaller than other wireless IEMs. I'm struggling to get a perfect seal with my new...

    I have tried SO MANY cheap foam tips with my 75t. The biggest problem with most of them is that you'll lose them in your ears - they have a plain inner tube to match as many IEMs as possible, which means they easily pop off when you pull out your earbuds. That even counts for quite expensive...

    A couple of weeks ago I wrote that while I love, love, LOVE the sound of my EAH-AZ60, they're really made for bigger ears. They look stellar, they sound exceptional, they're built well and come with a great app, but smaller ear canals like mine may suffer so much that I considered selling them...

    It's funny, isn't it? I usually don't return headphones after a purchase - even though I might not like them - and sell them instead. And sometimes, more often than I'd wish, I immediately start missing them. So much that I re-buy them after a couple of weeks. Happened with my SE-846. I...

    I'm in Europe, we can order them to be delivered within 24 hours here. If you can get them and your ears are big enough, you'll get an amazing pair of TWS earbuds. I'm SO close to keeping them even though they're kind of uncomfortable. If you tweak the EQ, using them on the bus really comes...

    Folks, I just bought the Technics EAH-AZ60. The sound really blows me away - it's bright, wide and comes with massive bass if I want it to. ANC is good, call quality rocks, the app is fantastic, but: they're too large for my ears. It's that simple. After a while they feel uncomfortable. I'm...

    It's been almost two years, and I've been happy with my Elite 75t ever since. But since this is a hobby and they're really starting to show their age I finally bought several fully wireless IEMs to find my buds for the next couple of years. Turns out... I might go back to my trusted Jabras...

    Sony WF-1000XM4 Impressions Thread

    I really have to say, ambient mode feels like a little bit of tech magic. For a moment I thought I wasn't even wearing earbuds - the hearthrough sound is surprisingly natural and reminds me of good, MUCH more expensive hearing aids. Really impressive.

    I don't have suggestions, but I just want to say that I really love my Elite Active 75t. Good fit, deep bass, nice companion app including an equalizer - I like them so much that I immediately bought a second pair when I lost the original ones (found them later, turned out my little boy loved to...

    Amazing, isn’t it? I really love my 75t, and when I read that I‘m getting a free ANC upgrade I was totally stunned. Really looking forward trying ANC combined with well sealing InAirs - should be an interesting concept.
