Detailed, robust sound ; Very comfortable ; Good control options

Can sound uncomfortable with rhythms ; No aptX ; Not short of competition

Lots of positives here, even if the EAH-AZ40 are too sonically flawed to get best-in-class honours

Impressively comfortable and wearable design ; Chunky, poised and quite detailed sound ; Numerous control options

Cutthroat competition ; Can stumble over rhythms ; SBC and AAC Bluetooth codecs only

The Technics EAH-AZ40 sounds superb, but it’s missing key features that are standard on other sub-$150 rivals.
