Technics' new earbuds boast a flagship feature for entry-level money
will know about the first-time-ever feature that most impressed us in this new lineup: rock-solid Bluetooth 5.3 multipoint connectivity to three devices simultaneously.
Not so here. The new EAH-AZ40M2 have arrived just a month after their siblings and while they do tote a smaller 6mm driver that makes them smaller and more compact than either of their more premium counterparts. Also, you still get support for Sony's higher-res LDAC codec, active noise cancellation, and that triple-device simultaneous Bluetooth connectivity.
Analysis: Technics' EAH-AZ80 are good but expensive; these cheaper buds will have a more widespread appealTechnics' unique 'transparent' and 'attention' ambient sound modes also feature here. 'Transparent' claims to allow all surrounding noise in, while 'attention' filters in only frequencies pertaining to the human voice .
For me, the star of the show is multipoint connectivity to three devices. Nobody wants to waste time having to disconnect from one thing to connect to another, and as an audio journalist, switching to different source devices is a daily struggle. When testing the Technics AZ80, easy simultaneous connectivity to my MacBook Pro, my iPhone and a Sony XPeria smartphone was nothing short of game changing.
