Technics, an audio electronics brand that has recently been revived by Panasonic, has unveiled a new pair of hi-fi wireless headphones dubbed the EAH-A800.
Revealed at CES 2022, the new over-ear wireless headphones come equipped with a variety of impressive features. These include active noise cancellation (ANC) technology, 40mm drivers, an Acoustic Control Chamber (used to manage airflow and assist with driver performance), Bluetooth connectivity, and unique capacitor tech taken from the brand's high-end amps.
In addition, the headphones allow users to toggle between different sound modes such as Natural Ambient and Attention. However, one of the most notable features of EAH-A800 is its ultra-powerful battery, which the company says can support up to 50 hours of wireless use on a single charge.
