What I would like to add is that Sony's firmware update of WF-1000XM4 busted one of the earbuds and ended up ruining the buds for thousands around the world. Sony refused to accept responsibility and made a lot of people angry, me including so Technics it is as far as I am concerned. It is just appalling the way Sony treats its customers so to me it's game over as far as Sony is concerned.

"you got to give the people what they want!", and you sir have certainly done that with this comparison between two heavyweights. Great work. In my opinion, these two should only be compared to others within their price point, i.e, the Denons, B & O, Bowers AND Wlkins etc.. I jumped on the XM5's, and am very satisfied thus far, but still strongly considering getting the AZ80's as well. However, If I do that the wifey may send me to earbud rehab.

I’m starting to believe I have an addiction to earbuds/headphones. I’m constantly looking online at the prices of different headphones/earbuds and even though I currently own the Sony WF-1000XM5 and I’m extremely happy with them, I’m ALWAYS looking for others haha. I’ve had the WF and WH-1000XM5’s, WF and WH-1000XM4’s, Apple AirPod Pro 2’s, Soundcore Liberty Air 2 and 3, Skullcandy SB2’s and Bose QC25’s as well. My next ones I want to get are the Apple AirPod Max’s and these Technics AZ80’s. At some point I’d also love to get a pair of B&O’s and Bowers and Wilkins as well but that will be much further down the line because even though it may not seem like it, I’m a broke veteran both literally and financially. I live on a fixed and rather LOW/SMALL INCOME as a nearly 40 year old fully disabled (in VA ratings terms) Combat Veteran. That’s why I no longer own any of the headphones/earbuds I mentioned (except the WF-1000XM5’s) because I ended up having to either sell or return all the other ones at various points because I needed the money. I don’t smoke (anything), I don’t drink anymore and I don’t do drugs…my “vice” is headphones/earbuds, sometimes I think drinking or drugs would be CHEAPER LMAO JK!!!

This was a great review for me. I bought a set of the XM5s a couple of months ago and gave them away to a friend the other day. I really appreciated the sound - when I could actually get them to seat into my ear properly. I found that they kept coming loose, something that the XM4s never did. The other issue I had with them was trying to handle them while in my ears without hitting the control points. I don't have massive fingers, but big enough that the smooth shape wouldn't allow me to get a decent hold of them without inadvertently tapping the controls. I have a feeling that the AZ80s may be the replacement for Hi-Def music that I've been looking for. Thanks for the review.

Hoy he pasado el día comparándolos, estuve en un principio un par de horas configurando el AZ80 y Denon PP, intercambiando almohadillas para conseguir la mejor sujeción y aislamiento y finalmente me quedo con los Denon PerL Pro. Tiene todo lo que necesito en cuanto a sonido, el que mas se le acerca es el AZ80 y se queda detras por muy poco (tan poco que aveces dudo si hay alguna diferencia). Mi primera impresión al usarlos es que no servían para nada pero hay que tomarse el tempo de configurarlos y adecuar las almohadillas correctas y en el momento menos pensado todo te estalla en la cabeza!! Los recomiendo con los ojos cerrado, eso si, tomaros el tiempo de ponerlos a tono. Valen la pena 100 %. Gracias por el vídeo. Un saludo desde España.

Esto es lo que me impide consequir los Denon.

I was interested in the AZ80 but waited for the XM5s a few months for them to be released. When reviews came out, it was easy for me to settle on the AZ80 as they have superior sound, and when paired to a Pixel 7 Pro LDAC. The AZ80 sounds like a good bookshelf speaker whereas the XM5 sounds like a good headphone. Too sealed for my tastes and poor sound stage.

You clearly hear the snair and super fast bearing drums while the xm4 I used before and now also buds 2 pro just lay over heavy bass.

Good data and insight on both of these options. Thanks as always on a great review. I have both of these also. Both are solid choices for the reasons you outlined. I find the noise cancelling on the Sony headphones more practically useful as well. But I use these predominantly for calls. Both work really well and both get good marks when I ask others I'm talking with how they sound. For longer calls, the Technics seem to be more comfortable in my ears, which are a tad on the large size probably, but also another subjective quality that YMMV on. For music, I find the Sony's sound to be a bit more "dynamic" (whatever that means) but I actually prefer the pair of B&O Beoplay EX earbuds I have for actually listening to music. I spend most of my workday on calls each day and, having gone through multiple full earbud and case charge cycles on both, it's hard to imagine anyone "hating" either of these options. I also don't think I'm going to return either of them myself.

AZ60 still work really well for me - the isolation and ANC aren't so good - but I never get ANY trouble with how they work or connect. Impeccable. Also own a Bose QC2 - and they are good in many ways but the Bluetooth connectivity is a disaster. Would buy Technics no questions asked.

I have AirPod Pro 2 gen, Bose QCii, Bose QC Ultra, and just picked up the Technics AZ80 - the Technics sound good but they are my least favorite ( as far as ANC ) I think the Bose Ultra are far better in the ANC dept and they sound great also. Now the Bose does have issues with dropping out, cutting out etc - for me the AirPod Pro 2nd gen have been pretty much flawless ( I just wish the ANC was a tad better, and you could adjust bass, treble etc like you can with others ) the AirPods just work all the time without error ( at least mine have ) I wanted to love the AZ80. I thought before I purchased these are going to be the ones I use for everything. I will continue switching between Bose Ultra and the AP Pro 2nd gen for now

The more I use the XM5 the more I don't think they are the best ANC earbud. Maybe you just need more than one or find the one that fills your personal needs the most but there isn't one earbud that tops all the categories.

Ooof ! Everyone is praising the AZ80. I Sold my xm4 fuel to their awfull fit and the sound just doesn't fit Rock and metal at all. Now I search for the right buds. But here ist the Problem: I've seen some comments that the volume and the sound of guitars is not so good on the AZ80. Does someone can confirm this ?

Hi I have the same situation currently, the comments i heard on the AZ80s on DRHMEs channel about the overdrive on guitars made me second guess choosing those buds, although many users commented that u can change this with some tweaking in eq. I think im gonna take a bet and go for the technics if you are intrested i can give you my opinion once i have tried them out. Cheers

@alexmitsch8978 I was first ! I bought them and guess what ? They fit so insanely good to metal. Excpecialy melo and blackmetal, their instrumental separation is first class. I used the buds 2 pro and overear xm4 for comparison and those AZ just hits so freaking good. Only problem is their weight, the fit is really good in ear but personally I just don't like to feel any earbuds in my ears at all, that's why I will stay with the buds2pro since they are so absurdly small and lightweight. But for sound yeah, the AZ is truly the rolls Royce of TWS.

In the latest update for the Technics the AnC it’s superior to Sony’s and transparency it’s only superior on AirPods Pro 2

Does anyone know how I put my new pair of Sony WF-1000XM5 in pairing mode? I used to hold both sensors for around 5 seconds on my WF-1000XM4, but this does not work on my XM5s.

Might be easiest to use the BT pairing button on the case. Open the lid and press the button on the case for a few seconds (near the usb-c connector)

@CEONTHEMAKING absolutely 💯. To be honest I'm leaning towards buying the Sonys but after my rather bad experience with the wf1000xm4 where the left earbud battery dies under 45mins after only 6 months of use I'm sceptical about trusting their product to last as it should for a $300 product

Hey, thanks for the comparison/review. I owned the xm4 and they were great unfortunately earlier this year they released a new firmware and bricked them. The battery life on one wss draining more than the other. It's a big issue, I was wondering if the xm5 suffer from that. If anyone is aware of it
