Headphones

Headphones are a pair of drivers that converts electronic signals into audio. Headphones are available in different forms: for example headphones and in-ear monitors. All types are addressed in this article.

Audio Profiles and Reviews

Headphones have different frequency responses. AutoEq can be used to normalize these to a harman curve. AutoEq also has a website on which headsets can be searched and equalizer presets can be exported more easily.

An extensive list of in-ear monitor reviews was made by crinacle. It is called crinacle's ranking list IEMs & Earphones. A similar list for headphones was also made by crinacle. It is called crinacle's ranking list Headphones.

Modifications

Headphones can be modified. The most done modifications include detachable cables or a balanced conversion. For every modification that changes the wires on the driver it is important to check the polarity, aswell as the left and right side to avoid having to resolder any connection.

The following is a list of resources that can be used to mod headphones.

  • Balanced conversion (includes detachable cable) on a Beyerdynamic Pro X DT900: A detailed example and explanation video can be found in a video by Custom Cans on YouTube.
