It works better in some productions than in others. I liked it with a lot of acoustic music, Recent versions of “Seventeen” by Norah Jones and Sharon Van Etten I move forward a bit with the kick drums and bass, leaving out a bit of vocal detail just above the high-end pair.

Adjusting the inner EQ of the associated Audio Technica will connect to the clear vocal settings (you can also choose from bass boost, V-shaped, and treble enhancements). It worked well to solve this problem. The app also has noise cancel and hearing through mode controls, allowing you to adjust individual 5-band EQs to your liking if you don’t like the presets.

This app is also where you can get headphone software and firmware updates. As long as your headphones are paired via Bluetooth, they’ll be easy to install in a few minutes.

The dual microphones on the earbuds mean they sound normal on calls, and the quality of the noise cancellation is actually very solid, especially for buds in this price range. It’s almost impossible to hear my very bright sound clicks Mechanical keyboard Thanks to the excellent stickers on the earphones, they are also played at low levels of music. All HVAC noise disappears. You’ll get better cuts from Apple, Bose and Sony’s best, but these keep themselves on this side of $250 along with the majority of competitors.

The strangest part of these buds was the app’s “soundscape” feature, with Audio Technica containing “natural relaxing sounds, masking noises that help you concentrate, or meditation sounds.” I don’t know why it is necessary in the app to control wireless earbuds, but it’s true.

There’s very little to dislike about these when it comes to all the earphones that sound decent, do a great job, and all the life throws at them (including the occasional misplacement of charging cases). They work well, fit perfectly and have the longest battery life I’ve ever seen from wireless buds. At $150, it’s a solid deal.
