18Hz
The lowest frequency at which the device produces audio. The lower the low-frequency response, the stronger and juicier the bass.
highest frequency
22000Hz
The highest frequency at which device produces audio. The higher the high-frequency response, the clearer and crispier the treble.
driver unit size
32mm
The driver unit is the component that produces sound in the device. Bigger drivers are more powerful and can produce better bass.
impedance
18 Ohms
Impedance is the device’s electrical resistance to the current being pushed through it. The lower the impedance, the easier it is to get higher volume and requires less power.
sound pressure level
108dB/mW
Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
has a neodymium magnet
✖Sennheiser HD 450BT
Devices with neodymium magnets are lighter and more powerful than those which use ferrite magnets. They also have more bass and clear high notes.
