Learn how to choose headphones

Most low impedance headphones need much less power to get a really good sound. This is because they don’t require as high of an input voltage, which means that the output port on your device doesn’t have to be designed for such powerful audio signals. If you only plug your headphones into portable devices like smartphones and laptops then it will help if those are also lower in impedance since this produces better volume without compromising bass quality or clarity.

What are the best High impedance headphones for music production?

I could turn my phone the whole way up and I’m barely gonna get any volume it’s gonna sound really awful, even though these are fantastic headphones you can however still use a low impedance pair of headphones with higher-powered kit such as headphone amps and audio interfaces. Now let’s look at the higher impedance headphones so if you’re going to be plugging your head phones into an audio interface with a dedicated headphone amp this is high power output or have one on their own then go for that because they’ll need more voltage which makes them work better now let’s take a closer look.

How to tell the difference in impedance headphones?

Having a very high impedance headphone protected you against that, and this takes us on to the confusing question of this middle ground. Some headphones such as DT 770 Pro which are my all-time favorite come in three different models I think there’s 32 ohm 80 and 250 or model. It begs the question well what’s this middle ground for? So let’s say you’re in recording studio using these 80 on headphones – it will give you more volume than if use them with 250 ohms. For example, if your drummer is playing drums then put those head phones onto his/her head.

Which pair of headphones sounds best, high or low impedance?

So it really serves that middle ground and it’s sort of a best of both now on to the question of which sounds better low or high impedance if you’re an audio professional or just an audiophile you will be able to hear the difference between low and high impedance headphones but its far more important to consider how the headphones are actually built what other technologies are in there and how its all tuned & designed because there are some absolutely incredible lows, meaning they can go real deep into bass frequencies without any distortion, so these might not sound as good for classical music.   if I just pull this Cup off here im left with the protective plastic grille and housing so ive just removed a few screws now dont disassemble your headphones like this because i will be breaking these in this video but once theyre open you can see two little wires, which ill have to cut before id remove thia assembly away from the headphone. after more dismantling we are left with only one thing:a protector case alongwith that dynamic driver assembly-this is thee most common type of headphon technology widspread across almost all types of headsets! So I’ll be able to show you all these parts in much more detail in just a moment but what this transducer does is transform the electrical signal into a mechanical movement pushing and pulling on the diaphragm. This gives it power, which we feel as music when there’s pressure waves created by soundwaves that come out of materials like our own voice boxes or guitars. Let me take apart one for you so we can see how they work! Your phone’s signal travels through the headphone cable and ends up in this copper coil. The alternating current creates a magnetic field that is paired with the magnet to create an electric signal, which then can be transmitted out of your headphones as sound waves! Loudspeakers are a relatively recent invention, but the principles behind them have been around for centuries. In fact, it’s actually sound waves that made speakers possible in the first place! Whenever you speak into a microphone or sing from your diaphragm and let out air pressure through an instrument such as brass to create vibrations of particles on its surface; these vibrating molecules then bounce off one another before traveling away at different speeds depending on their mass (bigger ones go slower). That movement is what will eventually produce sound when they hit our eardrums–in other words we hear whatever frequencies make up those sounds by interpreting how quickly those particles move past us thanks to this vibration. The transducers inside audio drivers work. The speaker coil produces current that is then sent to the voice coils which produce sound. The wire used in a typical speaker could be thicker or thinner, but it will either have higher resistance or more impedance when sending its signal through this magnet placed at the back of driver assembly. If you use an expensive type of material for your magnets and replace standard components with rare earth materials like neodymium, there may not be any difference between quality audio playback if they are well designed by physics combined with scientific principles using art as taste. I believe that it’s a little bit complicated. There can be a lot of discussion and debate on the topic because at the end of day sound is really up to preference, what one person prefers in material choice or magnet might not work for someone else’s ear but I find this stuff super fascinating and there are loads more information in description too so thats all for today hope it was fun and interesting for you its different from my usual videos but i had lots of fun making this video ive been looking forward to seeing your comments next week bye.
I am always being asked which headphones are best and which impedance (ohm) is best! In this video, I hope to quickly answer lots of questions about headphones including: How do headphones work? What Ohm of headphones do I need? Which impedance sounds best? High or Low impedance headphones for Mixing and Mastering? How do headphones actually work? What’s inside headphones? Do more ohms sound better? I exclusively use Beyerdynamic headphones in my studio because they are all made in Germany to the highest quality and are perfect for producing, mixing and recording! The DT 770 Pro is perfect as an all-rounder and is a legendary headphone in the industry but I prefer the open-backed headphones for mixing. for more information about mixing in headphones, Check out this video: Here are some links to the gear I use: DAW – http://bit.ly/flstudio20producer Mastering Headphones – http://bit.ly/DT1990pro Mixing Headphones – http://bit.ly/770pro Studio Monitors – http://bit.ly/MonitorA7x Microphone – http://bit.ly/ShureMicrophone

Micahel Wynne is a recording artist and mixing engineer with a passion for teaching (and instant ramen). In 2015 I discovered my enthusiasm for music and audio; I learned how to record and produce songs in my university student room with a just cheap laptop and FL Studio. After several months of working in audio sessions between school assignments, I decided to leave uni with a 2-year engineering diploma to pursue a career in music. I wanted to learn everything I could about the industry and the artistic process, so I started making original music as half of the duo “Miavono”. In late 2016 I began my journey on YouTube, sharing my knowledge and experiences with audio in the form of tutorials on “In The Mix”. I quickly grew a community of over 120,000 producers, artists, and audio professionals, a group of people whose passions aligned with mine. Last year I built my own home studio from the ground up in my back garden, set in the rural highlands of Scotland, and have since been supported by and involved with some of the greatest people in the industry.
