ElectronicsImpressive, natural sound and first-rate call mics make these the audio purist’s premium in-ear — while noise cancelling rated only satisfactory (2.7) is the honest asterisk. Well down from launch pricing, the sound-per-pound is now excellent.
ElectronicsThe best noise cancelling of any in-ear in a 112-model field — even the AirPods Pro 3 seems loud beside them. Bass-forward sound that wants a minute of EQ, a humble case and mid-field stamina are what the crown costs.
ElectronicsSecond of 57 in the current over-ear ranking and the noise-cancelling benchmark: fan hum, jet rumble and whistle all erased, with freely adjustable intensity. The trade-offs are a narrow soundstage, 39:10 hours of ANC runtime and a premium price.
