Klipsch T5 II ANC

Some people don’t like how the T5 II ANC fits or feels, but those who can find a good fit will enjoy a lot of good features and good sound quality. The price may deter the budget-conscious among us, but a decent equalizer app, great noise cancellation, and Dirac HD Sound make the T5 II True Wireless ANC experience a pleasure, at least while the short battery lasts.

The Klipsch T5 II ANC are great-sounding noise-cancelling true wireless earphones with advanced processing; but they’re expensive, and better-known pairs beat them for ANC effectiveness and battery life.
