Sound quality is a crucial component of wellness at work
Sound quality is vital for effective two-way communication, especially during the pandemic.
When asked during the exit interview about the importance of sound quality in the context of their jobs, most participants mentioned that it was one of the most, if not the most, important aspects.
This is especially the case in the context of the pandemic, where a large portion of respondents are working from home.
When asked if audio quality or voice quality was more important, most respondents mentioned that both are equally important for effective communication. They need to be able to hear others, but it’s equally important for their responses to be heard, as well.
High-quality audio and voice contribute to positive emotional and physical factors like:
Pleasant Emotional State
Compared to poor-quality sound, high-quality
sound is 3-4x as likely to make people feel
pleasant.
Time Efficiency
Participants’ reported confusion was 64% higher
for poor-quality audio and found poor-quality
sound distracting and time-consuming.
Communication Accuracy
Poor-quality audio led to 13% lower
comprehension task accuracy and a reported
29% higher anxiety.

How do Technics new AZ60/AZ40 earbuds help you work?
People’s lifestyles have been changing drastically in recent years. Their needs changed—they needed headphones that don’t pick up background noise, that offer clear communications, headphones that can be worn for long periods of time and headphones that work for their personal life too— online, social and streaming. We knew true wireless earbuds could be better for the working professional—whether they’re at home or in the office.
JustMyVoice™ Technology* helps you by your voice being heard
Both the EAH-AZ60 and EAH-AZ40 models are equipped with JustMyVoice™ Technology* which provides listeners with excellent call quality. The voice detection mics detect your voice when speaking, while the two MEMS mics actively capture your voice and reduce surrounding noise with beamforming technology for a clear call, even in noisy environments or while working from home.
In the EAH-AZ60 model, a total of eight mics on the left and right ears play a significant role in supporting more comfortable, natural conversation over the phone.
*Feature under continuous development; varying environmental conditions may affect performance.
How JustMyVoice™ Technology Works
Industry-leading* noise cancelling helps you concentrate on your work (Only available for AZ60)
Available only in the EAH-AZ60 model, Technics’s Dual Hybrid Noise Cancelling Technology, composed of Feedforward and Feedback Noise Cancelling, captures both the noise outside and inside the headphones. When paired with the digital and analogue processing, this combination
creates best-in-class* noise cancelling performance perfect for blocking out the distractions, whether at home or outside.
*As of Aug. 14, 2021, According to research by Panasonic Corporation, measured using JEITA-compliant guidelines in the True Wireless style noise cancelling headphones market.
All-day comfort design helps you go on, with less discomfort in your ear
The new drop shape of the earbuds is designed to *maximize contact with the user’s ear canal for an optimal fit, while the outer portion of the earbud is thinner than previous models, preventing it from falling out of place.
7 sizes of earpieces (XS1, XS2, S1, S2, M, L, and XL) for EAH-AZ60 and 4 sizes of earpieces (XS, S, M, L) for EAH-AZ40 also give a *customizable fit and ensure immersive sound.
