About My Headset

Greetings everybody! This is my  “special post” on this website, I’d like to introduce what might just be my favorite peripheral: the headphones! I’ve always liked music, and since headphones can give you much better audio quality than speakers of the same price, as well as giving you the ability to listen to music without bothering others (since my family loves silence and won’t likely be fond of the kind of music I normally listen to anyway, this is a great plus), I absolutely adore them. 

We have numerous types of headsets in store just for you.  Just to name a few…..

Earbuds:

  • These are the cheaper earphones that normally come with your smartphones. They are distinguishable from in-ear monitors in that they only have a round body that you can plug into your ear, but it’ll rest on your earlobe and you can’t plug it all the way in.

On-Ear (Supra-aural) Headphones:

  • These headphones also wrap around your head, like the “full-size” (over-ear) headphones below, but they are small enough that their earpads don’t cover your whole ear, but instead rest on your ear, hence the name.

Over-Ear (Circum-aural) Headphones:

  • There are actually many names for these pairs: full-size, over-ear, around-ear, circum-aural,… you name it. Whatever they’re called, these are widely considered to be the most “proper” kind of headphones, since they can wrap around your head and their earpads can fully cover your whole ear. Large and in charge, these bad boys are normally more fit for home listening or studio mastering than portable listening.

Musical Headphones:

  • Musical headphones are, as their name imply, headphones designed for music. Most audiophiles and music lovers  like their headphones as bare-bone as possible, with only 2 sound-projecting earcups, a headband, and a simple wire. 
    • Closed-Back Headphones:These headphones, like their name implies, have a closed, solid back on their housing, thus delivering better passive noise cancellation and isolation, and in most cases, also general sound quality.

Gaming Headsets:

Unlike musical headphones, which strive to be as simple but high-quality as possible, gaming headsets ought to have edgier designs (often with, you guess it, RGB LEDs), surround), and most importantly of all, they MUST have a mic. They also tend to come in wireless or Bluetooth form often, and their sound is usually tuned more for low frequencies and surround spatial recognition, rather than pure audio quality
