The earbuds that come with most portable MP3 players are inefficient and not performance matched to the source. Surprised? I doubt it.
A new crop of earbuds has popped up over the last two years that cost a fortune but are every bit as bad!
These products are touted as more accurate than typical earbuds.....guess why? These expensive models with black magic in them like "balanced armature" transducers claim to be more accurate because they have been measured using a speech intelligibility standard. Accuracy in this case is how well the listener understands what someone is saying.
So if you want to hear your music with all the precision of a police radio then these whiz-bang products are for you.
Your favorite music needs performance across the entire spectrum not just the vocal range...and definitely not with a hearing aid transducer focused on reproducing speech. Don't be fooled by the expensive price tags.
Hearing is Believing.
