This headphone emphasizes the lows and highs at the expense of the mids, which is seductive at first but ultimately unsatisfying.

Eoz Audio Arc ANC wireless headphones: Superior comfort with mediocre sound quality

Eoz Audio was founded on the belief that style and technology are not mutually exclusive. As the company website proclaims, “We design our earphones to be as stylish and elegant as they sound...We don’t manufacture, we craft them. We use premium materials because we want our products to last, because we want them to be an expression of our personality and style.”

The company’s latest offering is the Arc wireless Bluetooth headphone. While the build quality and comfort are top notch, I’m afraid the sound quality is not.

This review is part of TechHive’s coverage of the best noise-cancelling headphones, where you’ll find reviews of the competition’s offerings, plus a buyer’s guide to the features you should consider when shopping for this type of product.

The Eoz Arc is a closed-back, over-ear headphone that certainly lives up to the company’s vision in terms of build materials. The elegant, minimalist earcups and headband are made from stainless steel and aluminum, which makes them far more durable and long-lasting than plastic.

The earcups slide along the single-piece headband to adjust them for your head size. On most other headphones, the earcups are attached to a separate piece that slides in and out of the top of the headband, which is often somewhat awkward and more prone to breakage. On the other hand, the more common design allows the headphones to be folded to fit in a small hard-shell case. The Arc cannot be folded, and it comes with a soft carrying bag, which is not as protective as a hard-shell case.
