Manual of product ATH-ANC20
Editorial note
The Audio-Technica ATH-ANC20 headphones stand out for their active noise-canceling technology, providing optimal sound immersion to enjoy music without distractions. With an extended frequency range of 20 to 20,000 Hz, they ensure a rich and detailed sound reproduction, ideal for audiophiles. Lightweight at 104 g, these headphones are designed for prolonged comfort, although they may become uncomfortable during long listening sessions. The noise-canceling microphone allows for clear conversations, which is an asset for calls and video conferences. Additionally, the standard 3.5 mm connector ensures good compatibility with many audio devices. However, some drawbacks must be considered. The lack of Bluetooth connectivity limits their use with modern wireless devices, which can be a disadvantage for those who prioritize flexibility. Furthermore, the nickel-metal hybrid (NiMH) battery technology requires frequent changes of AAA batteries, which is less convenient than rechargeable lithium-ion batteries. Finally, the in-ear format may not suit all users, with some preferring more comfortable models. In summary, the Audio-Technica ATH-ANC20 are quality headphones offering an immersive audio experience, but their lack of wireless connectivity and battery system may not meet the expectations of all users.Score details
