Almost everyone loves to listen to music when he is at home, on a walk, in transport. Naturally, if you went outside, you will have to use headphones, since not everyone can share your tastes. If you do not have them, then you need to go to the store. However, not everyone knows how to choose the right headphones. Let's take it in order.
Varieties
Before
choosing headphones, you should decide what they are:
- Overhead oversized headphones (they are often used by DJs, gamers, sound engineers or music lovers). Their main feature is that they completely isolate the ear from extraneous sounds, so you have the opportunity to focus only on your favorite music. It should be noted that they are not very convenient on the street.
- Overhead small-sized earphones. This accessory can be used by those people who like to listen to music in transport or on a walk, but it can be inconvenient, since the temples can rub the skin.
- Intracanal. They transmit sound well, as they are inserted deep enough into the ear canal. The disadvantage is that they irritate the eardrum more and can harm your hearing.
- Inserts. This is the most common and cheapest type of headphone, which is used to listen to music on the street or in transport. They are very convenient since only one earphone can be used from a pair. Moreover, they are almost invisible.
How to get a good product?
First of all, you should pay attention to the quality of this accessory. Naturally, this parameter is checked directly in the store. Inspect the product carefully. It should not have any defects or damage. This is especially true for wire connections.
Before choosing headphones, decide on the type of their connection to the device. Mostly presented accessories use a standard input of 3.5 mm. There are wireless models, however, they transmit the quality of music worse and quickly drain the battery of the phone or player. As for the frequency characteristics, the accessories that work in the range from 16 Hz to 21 kHz will give you a good sound.
Before choosing headphones, decide how loud they should sound. It depends on their sensitivity, the value of which should not be less than 100 dB. Try to check the product at the time of purchase. Evaluate how well it transmits sound, what level of noise and distortion is present.
Before choosing headphones for your phone, check how comfortable they will be for you. Will they fall out of your ears, is there a clothespin that will allow you to fix the accessory and will not allow it to slip. In addition, an important parameter is the mass of the product. If you constantly move around with the player, then a heavy accessory will not work for you, because in the end your neck will get tired.
Before choosing good headphones, pay attention to their safety and cost. It should be noted that a high-quality model cannot be too cheap, so try to pay attention to products from the middle price category. The material of manufacture must not cause allergic reactions or contain substances hazardous to health. Try to make purchases only in certified stores and give preference to manufacturers with a good reputation.
Now you know how to choose headphones. Good luck
