00:00:00,399 --> 00:00:05,600
have you ever been super excited to try a shiny new set of headphones you

2
00:00:03,679 --> 00:00:10,160
plunked down a bunch of money on but walked away feeling like the sound just

3
00:00:07,319 --> 00:00:13,839
wasn't quite what you expected maybe you got drawn in by an expensive marketing

4
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:18,039
campaign for a pair of headphones that couldn't possibly live up to all the

5
00:00:15,519 --> 00:00:22,119
hype but you may have also overlooked their frequency response one of the key

6
00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:26,880
things that separates one set of headphones from another but often only

7
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:30,359
gets one little line on a spec sheet usually a headphone manufacturer will

8
00:00:28,519 --> 00:00:35,239
describe frequency response as has a range of tones that a headphone can

9
00:00:32,719 --> 00:00:40,360
reproduce you might see something like 20 to 20,000 Hertz for example which

10
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:45,079
also happens to be the range of human hearing since most people can't hear

11
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:50,440
lower than 20 HZ or higher than 20,000 Herz it might at first look like a cheap

12
00:00:48,199 --> 00:00:55,239
pair of headphones that lists this as its frequency response can reproduce

13
00:00:52,480 --> 00:01:00,079
every sound you could ever want to hear unfortunately though those numbers are

14
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:03,359
only a pretty small part of the story because different headphones are

15
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:07,600
constructed in different ways there are pretty significant differences between

16
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:11,960
how various models will reproduce sounds within the low mid and high ranges even

17
00:01:10,119 --> 00:01:16,240
if a headphone promises a frequency response well beyond your range of

18
00:01:13,799 --> 00:01:20,360
hearing every frequency might not be reproduced with the same loudness or

19
00:01:18,320 --> 00:01:24,240
Clarity the result could make you end up feeling like you're listening to

20
00:01:21,799 --> 00:01:27,200
something through a pretty bad equalizer even if you're not using one at all so

21
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:31,640
how can you know whether a particular pair of headphones will sound the way

22
00:01:28,960 --> 00:01:35,920
you expect while this can be pretty tricky until you actually try them out

23
00:01:34,079 --> 00:01:40,600
many popular headphone models have been tested by various independent websites

24
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:44,719
and even individual hobbyists with the actual frequency response being plotted

25
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:48,600
on graphs that show how loud the headphones get at each frequency many

26
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:52,240
less expensive headphones have what's called a v-shaped sound signature

27
00:01:50,439 --> 00:01:56,119
meaning that they have emphasis on the bass and the treble instead of the

28
00:01:54,000 --> 00:02:00,280
mid-range forming a vshape on a frequency response graph other kinds of

29
00:01:58,159 --> 00:02:04,840
headphones are more Bas heavy and are louder in the low range or are bright

30
00:02:02,759 --> 00:02:08,800
and have more emphasis on the treble but if you want a very true to the recording

31
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:13,480
sound that isn't skewed in any particular direction it's a good idea to

32
00:02:10,920 --> 00:02:18,280
find a set of headphones with a flat or neutral sound signature that can

33
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:20,239
reproduce lows mids and highs more or

34
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:24,360
less equally and although many audio files go for neutral sounding headphones

35
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:29,560
this doesn't necessarily that they're the best for everyone for example many

36
00:02:27,920 --> 00:02:35,440
people who like electronic music or hipop pop go for basier headphones that

37
00:02:32,239 --> 00:02:37,200
let them feel the lows a little bit more

38
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:41,040
ultimately of course beauty is in the eye of the beholder and that includes

39
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:44,879
sound too so at the end of the day what's most important is buying

40
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:49,200
something that you think sounds good just don't let yourself be swayed too

41
00:02:46,879 --> 00:02:54,239
much by you know celebrity endorsements or your buddy who primarily uses his

42
