Technics on the EAH-AZ100
Why you will love it
Magnetic fluid driver
Technics says the aluminium diaphragm and magnetic fluid driver give ultra-low distortion through precise stroke control. It says an ultra-thin free edge, enhanced with magnetic fluid, delivers rich bass, and that the rigid aluminium diaphragm extends mid-to-high frequency playback.
Technics lists a 10 mm driver and a frequency response of 20 Hz to 40 kHz (LDAC at 96 kHz/990 kbps).

Adaptive noise cancelling and Voice Focus AI
Adaptive ANC adjusts in real time to block ambient noise. Technics describes the noise cancelling as industry-leading, based on its own research using JEITA guidelines for true wireless noise cancelling headphones as of October 2024. Technics lists Full Adaptive Digital Hybrid noise cancelling.
Voice Focus AI applies noise reduction to calls, both when you speak and when you listen. Natural Ambient mode lets in sound from around you, and Attention mode reduces background noise so you can focus on voices.
Connectivity, Dolby Atmos and LE Audio
Multipoint connects up to 3 devices at once, such as a computer, smartphone and tablet, and you can choose your main audio input source. Technics notes LDAC playback is available with 2 devices only.
The AZ100 supports SBC, AAC, LDAC and LC3 codecs. Technics says it supports Dolby Atmos and Dolby Head Tracking, and LE Audio with the LC3 codec for low-latency playback.
Battery and Qi charging
With AAC, Technics lists approx. 10 hours of playback with ANC on and 12 hours with ANC off, and approx. 28 hours with ANC on including the charging case. With LDAC the figures are approx. 7 hours and 18 hours with ANC on.
A 15 minute quick charge gives approx. 90 minutes of playback (AAC, ANC on). The case charges by USB-C or by Qi wireless charging. Technics notes a Qi charger is sold separately.
Design, fit and app
Technics says the low-profile, natural concha-fit design keeps the earbuds comfortably in place for long use. The earbuds are IPX4 equivalent (earphones only, not the charging case). Five earpiece sizes are supplied.
The Technics Audio Connect app lets you check battery level, select EQ sound modes, adjust noise cancelling levels and customise the touch sensors. Technics says security updates are supported until 31 January 2030.
