Technics EAH-TZ700 In Ear Monitor Earphones - DEMO

Description

MY TAKE: I can't consider myself an authority on IEM's, but most I've heard are not great. I must admit, I was surprised at the level of performance offered by the EAH-TZ700 from Technics. Definitely recommended. Be sure to check out our Featured Product page here for more information on these remarkable IEM's. - Galen Carol

Precision Motion Technology delivers amazingly pure sound.

A newly developed free-edge driver featuring a proprietary diaphragm and magnetic fluid technology -

The newly developed 10-mm driver uses a 5-micron-thick diaphragm made of a combination of a high-strength, special aluminum material that suppresses unwanted vibration and a supple, free-edge suspension material. The special aluminum contributes to improved high-frequency reproduction, while the free-edge material lowers the LF resonance to achieve outstanding low-frequency sound reproduction. Furthermore, magnetic fluid is used in the voice coil section to maximize its characteristics to ensure high stroke accuracy of the supple-edge diaphragm and to provide a high damping effect, which was previously difficult to achieve. The result is the reproduction of sound over a wide frequency range with ultra-low distortion.

Super-wide and flat sound tuning (Air Control Precision Structure) -

The coaxial design cylinder-type housing of the EAH-TZ700 maximizes the potential of the driver. The proprietary Air Control Chamber inside the unit precisely controls the internal airflow and optimizes the balance among frequency bandwidths. As a result, sonic resolution improves, and stunning sound space is created.
 

A housing design featuring different metal materials -

The unique housing features a combination of different metal materials to maximize both sound quality and strength. The port housing section is made of lightweight high-strength titanium (also used in the Precision Motion Driver). It holds the driver rigidly and suppresses unwanted vibration. The main housing body is made of diecast magnesium for its light weight and excellent vibration damping characteristics. The 3D shape ensures the most suitable angle of insertion in the ear and provides an optimal fit to realize exceptional comfort.

Dedicated cables and earpieces designed in pursuit of ideal audio quality

The EAH-TZ700 comes with two types of cables: balanced and unbalanced. The user can choose the one to suit his/her preference or connection environment. The general-purpose MMCX connector used for the connection to the main unit allows for the use of aftermarket cables.

The earpieces are important parts that also affect the sound quality. In addition to the normal type and round type, oval-shape earpieces with excellent sound insulation are provided. What’s more, each earpiece type comes in four different sizes. So, every user can enjoy a high-quality music experience with optimal comfort.

REVIEWS:

Independent review from a recording engineer - “So, if you want to hear everything that your favorite recording has to offer, you really should try a pair of these, because you will hear things you did not know existed there before, even in the recordings you thought you knew well. You will hear things you won’t hear in speakers because the information level is too low to be heard across the room….and you will be amazed. If you have some recordings that you really like but were not well recorded, there is still hope. There is a multitude of earbud/headphone extension cables, and you can simply purchase one of those to put in series with the stock earbud cord when you want to listen to ‘that’ recording; pick one that slows down the high end and you will be fine. Don’t penalize all of your listening pleasure because a couple of recordings you like were not particularly well-executed, or were recorded a long time ago. These TZ700s do such a great job, and I liked them so much, that I purchased 3 pair……1 for use on location in single-ended mode because my ‘on location’ DACs do not have a balanced output (and I don’t want to have forgotten a pair in the office), 1 for use at home in the studio office in single-ended mode (again DACs without balanced output), and 1 pair for my portable player use in balanced mode. They do sound better in balanced mode, but as noted, many DACs do not support that option. But I do not want to be without a pair of these, and since some products I have liked in the past have been discontinued just when I thought they were the ‘best in class’ of whatever they were……and when my one copy of the product died I was left without……I made sure that in this instance, at least, I am covered. So, thanks Technics, great show……I do not even want to be without a pair of these buds.” - Ron. Meyer, July 2020

Soundstage! Solo: "I’m surprised to say I think these tiny, inauspicious-looking earphones are as good as any I’ve heard. You might find earphones you like a little better -- I’m still trying to decide if I prefer the Campfire Solarises to the EAH-TZ700s, or not -- but I think you would have a very tough time finding earphones that sound more natural and less sonically colored. It’s perfectly understandable if you want something fancier, with more drivers, interchangeable filters, a cooler-looking design, an ostentatious woven cable, and/or a fancy leather case. But for pure performance, with none of the fussy fit often encountered with earphones using over-ear cable routing, I think the EAH-TZ700 earphones are a sure bet." -  Brent Butterworth
