Audio-Technica ATH-TWX9 Wireless Headphones

Product Information

Now, I’m on the record for saying size doesn’t matter as much in an earbud or IEM because it’s literally sitting just millimetres from your eardrums, but that’s still unusually small. Listening to the Chicago Symphony Orchestra through 360 was the best at demonstrating this during my listening.

The earbuds feature multiple ANC profiles, but the most significant degree of attenuation comes from the default one, so don’t expect to get more than what’s on the chart above by tinkering in the app. Overall, the five ANC modes did not provide outstanding but rather satisfactory attenuation of noise sources.

For one, its unusual shape means it's quite bulky and won’t slip into pockets as easily as, say, the AirPods Pro’s charging case. There’s some competition to consider, but Audio Technica brings their A game with the TWX9, and it should be one to consider. Brand New Kind of Blue by Gold Motel sounds pretty good with the ATH-TWX9, but the distorted guitar and bass tracks sound a little difficult to differentiate as the song builds in intensity. However, it prioritises sound quality over features like active noise cancellation and transparency mode. Das Noise Cancelling ist woanders besser, aber hier immer noch mehr als ausreichend für den Zweck, unterwegs Musik zu hören.

There is a broad range of control options available on the earpieces, but the control elements cannot be freely configured via the app.The TWX9 may not emphasize on the upper range, but they sound more spread out, hence still sounds clear. Unfortunately, the charms of multipoint were deeply undermined by the TWX9’s tendency of repeatedly alerting me that it had disconnected and reconnected to … well, it was never clear which device was causing problems. The touchpads are a bit sensitive, someone with long hair or their hair down may get a little annoyed.

Niederfrequente Schwingungen die auch über den Körper ans Ohr gelangen und durch Reibung an den Ohrhörern erzeugte Geräusche werden kaum gefiltert. Qualcomm ® TrueWireless Mirroring enables independent transmission to the left and right earbuds, reducing sound interruptions and delays for videos. Audio-Technica’s over-ear headphones have been reliable options for people looking to find something that bridges the gap between consumer and hi-fi audio on a budget for a long time, but the company’s more high-tech options haven’t quite captured the same attention.Our staff have a wealth of knowledge and can offer advice, product support and guidance on your next purchase. They are completely black, and I’m not sure if Audio Technica is planning on releasing more color variations in the future. The ATH-TWX9 also do not have a quick-charge function, although a charging cycle takes less than two hours. However, the best results were achieved when the ambient noise was measured, and a specific adjustment was made, and this was uncomplicated to use and could be implemented within a few seconds.

Although wind noise was filtered out on the iPhone, which meant that it was not affected by moderate wind, the voice quality was significantly reduced in stronger gusts.The ATH-TWX9s come with ear tips in three different stem lengths, each with a choice of four sizes, which allows for a specific adjustment to suit your ear canal and promotes a comfortable, stable fit. All said, Audio-Technica has come up with an attractive, top-notch pair of true wireless earphones in the ATH-TWX9.
