What's up guys, Lew here back with
another video and today I'm gonna tell you about the top five reasons to choose
over-ear headphones like these ins..... The top five reasons to choose over ear headphones
when compared to those little dinky in-ear earbuds or otherwise. Now for this
demonstration I'm going to be using the brand new HiFiMAN HE350. Little bit
about these headphones: open back design, premium materials, huge fifty millimeter
drivers and available exclusively at Massdrop.
And temporarily this is a
collaboration, a relaunch of a classic these things are a huge drop off of the
retail cost. They are available for about a hundred bucks and to be quite honest
it's going to be difficult to find headphones of this caliber at that price
point. So if you want to get in on the action: link in the description. Go
check it out! So why over-ear headphones? Number one: the driver! These have giant
fifty millimeter drivers and no matter what you do in an in-ear-style headphone you
simply will not have as big of a speaker on your head.
What does this mean for you? Generally speaking a better listening
experience, bigger driver, more sound. This is a acoustics 101. You can have a big driver
that's terrible, you have a small driver that's incredible. But in general, general
terms, these guys gonna have bigger drivers, which do a better job, most of the time,
at reproducing a wider frequency range all the way down to those low
frequencies that we all love.
Number two: longer listening sessions. So with
this set of headphones I've got you. This is a pretty lightweight over-ear and
it's adjustable, so chances are it's gonna be comfortable for you to wear for
very long periods of time where the inside of your ear, generally speaking, is
going to be more susceptible to fatigue. So you can throw a pair of these on and three hours can float by as you
listen to your pink floyd or whatever it is that you choose.
Plus the
adjustability means that they're gonna fit better for more people Number three: sound stage. This is terminology that
gets thrown around in the audio world in with an open back design the experience
you have is a lot more similar to what it's like to be in a live venue where it
kind of, it kind of feels like sound is coming from a further distance away like
you are in an environment of sound. It's very difficult to have this very wide
soundstage. It comes with an open back in in-ear design.
Number four: at home listening. Generally
speaking when you've got a set up, you got a record player, you might have one of
these guys right down here: I've actually got a dark voice tube amplifier like this one. Generally speaking you're gonna want to give
them something that's easy to put on, easy to share, you're not gonna have those kind of hygiene issues
with in ear headphones. So for those kinds of social listening environments, maybe in
the living room or in your bedroom or so on, these are just gonna be a little bit
easier to pass around.
The fifth reason why you should choose over ear headphones when
compared to get here is for gaming. Or movies anything that's mixed in a kind
of potentially surround environment. When you're in a game and you hear gunshots
coming from a particular direction that larger driver on the outside your ears
is gonna do a really good job of helping you identify the exact location of that
sound. These things are going to do a fantastic job of delivering that.
So
there you have it! That's five reasons. The most important reasons to me to choose
over ear headphones when compared to in-ear style. If you want to jump on the
mass drop for the HE350, become one of the few people on the planet that actually have these headphones at this
price, click the link in the description and also stay tuned, because coming up in
the next video tomorrow it's gonna be the top five reasons to pick in-ear
headphones compared to over-ear..
