Beyerdynamic’s Amiron 300 Are Cheaper Than Ever

Looking for a pair of truly wireless earbuds that pack a little more oomph than your average AirPods? The Beyerdynamic Amiron 300 (8/10, WIRED Review) are marked down to just $180 at Amazon, a full $100 off their list price and the lowest price we’ve seen for these upgraded earbuds.

The Amiron 300 have a classic Beyerdynamic sound profile, which is delightfully rich and smooth, with a mostly neutral base that has good definition at the far ends of the spectrum. Reviewer Parker Hall was particularly impressed with the vocal quality, which he called “clear and dynamic” and didn’t get “overwhelmed by such a well-defined low end.” These are particularly good for jazz and vocal-heavy acoustic music, but anyone with good ears will be impressed with the performance.

They also come with five sizes of ear tips, so most people shouldn have no trouble finding some that are a good fit, which also helps provide excellent sound isolation. That helps make up for the fact that the active noise canceling isn’t quite as sharp as it is on earbuds from the likes of Sony or Bose. They do have excellent pass-through audio, though, which could trick you into thinking there isn’t any noise canceling on at all.

There’s a mobile app that’s non-intrusive and useful, letting you change the functions of the buttons on the outside. As someone who constantly skips tracks by accident when pulling my hood up, I can appreciate the ability to tweak these settings. There are a variety of other options too, including an EQ to adjust, and a low latency mode if you want to use them to catch up on your favorite shows while riding the bus to work.

Overall, these make for a nice upgrade from more budget-friendly true wireless earbuds, particularly for those with discerning ears and a penchant for vocal music or podcasts. Their understated design and great compatibility help round out an otherwise appealing package, and the lower price helps seal the deal.
