New Technics EAH-AZ100 Earbuds Use New Driver Technology

Technics has announced the EAH-AZ100, its latest true wireless earbuds. This adds to the family of award-winning audio products backed by 60 years of sound engineering and product development.

 

The EAH-AZ100 levels up users’ sound experience with a newly developed, proprietary “Magnetic Fluid Driver” that creates clean, high-resolution, low-vibration and low-distortion sound for authentic, balanced audio that’s true to the source.

 

For stress-free communication, the EAH-AZ100 introduces “Voice Focus AI”– an innovative feature that combines an AI noise reduction chip and three microphones in each earbud. This technology delivers precise tuning, ensuring the ultimate call quality for both the speaker and the listener. “Voice Focus AI” goes beyond eliminating common call distractions, such as busy street traffic, wind or other background noise. It actively analyses incoming sounds, enhancing the sound of the caller.

 

Adaptive Noise Cancelling also brings another performance update to the EAH-AZ100. This technology works with the surrounding environment, background noise levels and the ear's individual shape, adjusting the noise cancelling level for the best experience at any time and in any situation. 

 

The “Magnetic Fluid Driver” technology from the Technics EAH-TZ700 wired in-ear monitors has been miniaturised to enable a new level of low-distortion sound for the EAH-AZ100 earbuds. The ultra-thin free edge ensures an ultra-low frequency of 3Hz for a rich bass, while its aluminium diaphragm produces natural high-resolution sound separation and details.

 

The “Magnetic Fluid” is an oil-type liquid filled with magnetic particles injected into the space between the driver magnet and voice coil, enabling low-distortion playback. This creates a dynamic, rhythmic, detailed listening experience so users can hear their favorite music recordings as the artist originally intended.

 

Taking performance even further, for that feeling of “live music-concert sound”, the EAH-AZ100 also newly integrates with spatial audio optimised for Dolby Atmos. With Dolby Audio, podcasts, movies, music and games have enhanced clarity of voice content. Dolby Head Tracking responds to head movements, creating a more realistic, shifting sound field that continuously recalibrates to keep the listener at the centre of the action and delivering a 360-degree immersive audio experience.

 

Designed to suit any lifestyle, the EAH-AZ100 also includes award-winning features from previous Technics models, including 3-device multipoint connectivity, which enables connecting up to laptops, tablets and smartphones in minutes. In addition, the EAH-AZ100 simplifies seamless switching between devices and can provide announcements of nearby connected devices.

 

The concha-fit and shape have also been improved, reducing the size and weight of the earbud for all-day comfort whether the user is on work calls or streaming content. Additionally, a new fifth "ML" size ear tip has been introduced, giving users more options to achieve the best seal, sound quality and noise cancelling performance.

 

With advanced noise cancelling on, the earbuds can playback for up to 10 hours without the case and up to 28 hours with it.

 

The EAH-AZ100s also feature One-touch Conversation Mode, allowing users to instantly pause music and activate the transparent mode, focusing on the “voice” element for effortless conversations without removing the earbuds. When taken out, built-in wearing sensors automatically pause the music and disable touch sensors to prevent accidental inputs. Put the earbuds back in to resume music and control seamlessly.

 

For ultimate connectivity, the EAH-AZ100 also supports the new Bluetooth LE Audio standard and Auracast feature to pair and share an audio experience, as well as the LC3 codec for low-latency audio when gaming and viewing videos. Compatible with Google Fast Pair, Android users can also sync up chosen nearby devices and accessories automatically.

 

The Technics Audio Connect App is available on iOS or Android devices for easy access to preferences, personalised sound tuning and convenient features such as location tracking if the earbuds are misplaced.
