While Technics is best known for its audiophile-grade turntables and other high-end hi-fi components, the revered Japanese manufacturer dabbles in the consumer audio space, as well.
Specifically, it makes a number of wireless headphones and wireless earbuds that range from relatively affordable to flagship-grade to compete with the high-end models by Sony, Bose and Apple.
Earlier this year, Technics introduced new flagship wireless earbuds, the EAH-AZ100, which deliver premium sound and pack powerful active noise-cancellation. And yes, they cost $300.
Fast forward six months, and now Technics is giving its new flagship wireless earbuds a subtle update as part of the brand’s 60th anniversary celebrations.
Champagne gold finish
Since its release, Technics has offered its flagship EAH-AZ100 wireless earbuds in two finishes, black or silver, but it’s introducing a third option to celebrate its six-decade history. That new finish is champagne gold.
It’s worth noting that the new colorway isn’t a special-edition version — instead, it’ll be a third option that Technics will now offer as a mainstay with the existing black or silver options.
