I think there are many people who have more opportunities to enjoy music and movies at home due to the increase in telework due to Korona-ka. Headphones that increase the immersive feeling and allow you to enjoy music and movies without worrying about your family are useful in such situations. This time, we will introduce how to choose headphones and recommendations.
Headphones come in a wide range of prices, from thousands of yen to hundreds of thousands of yen. First of all, let's see how to choose after considering what kind of difference there is depending on the price.
If you simply look at the price, you may have a bad image if the price is high and the sound quality is good. However, if it is expensive, it is not always satisfactory.
High headphones have a large number of drivers, soundproofing is enhanced by using the manufacturer's original technology, and the mechanism is such that the sound of listening in a concert hall can be reproduced. On the other hand, there are also products that have excellent sound quality but are price-reduced by simplifying the structure.
However, no matter how good the performance is, you cannot always enjoy music or movies with your favorite sound quality. Most headphones have different areas of expertise, such as "emphasis on the beauty of the treble," "emphasis on the deep bass," and "emphasis on the cohesive sound."
For those who want to listen to the deep bass, even headphones that cost more than 100,000 yen may not be satisfactory if they are the type that emphasizes the treble. Also, when used in a telework meeting or listening to learning English, the sound that you always hear in a concert hall can make your ears tired.
Also, there may be a difference in price between wired and wireless. Wireless type headphones are more expensive to manufacture than wired type because they are equipped with a Bluetooth mechanism and a battery, and even with the same quality, the price tends to be higher. In addition, when exchanging voice data wirelessly, the data is compressed, which may result in deterioration of sound quality.
