Has Active Noise Cancellation (Anc)

Beats Solo3 Wireless ✗

Technics EAH A800 ✓

Active noise cancellation uses more advanced technology to actively counter noise. How it works, it listens to the sound pattern of incoming noise and then inverts the soundwaves to cancel it out. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 outside (noise from your surrounding) and adding -1 inside (counter sound within the device) to make 0 resulting in a reduced level of noise.

Technics EAH A800 allow you to listen at lower volume levels, causing less ear fatigue as you don't have to crank up the volume to overcome background noise.

Has Passive Noise Reduction

Beats Solo3 Wireless ✓

Technics EAH A800 ✗

Passive Noise Cancellation uses well-designed ear cups to seal out environment noise. This is used for both in-ear earphones and over-ear headphones where the headphone itself will keep surrounding noise out. The Beats Solo3 Wireless sits tightly in place, creating an acoustic seal that reduces background noise and prevents your music from leaking out.

Lowest Frequency

Beats Solo3 Wireless 20Hz

Technics EAH A800 4Hz

Low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio component reproduces low audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it. Beats Solo3 Wireless's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, the lower the low-frequency response, the stronger and juicier the bass.

Technics EAH A800's lowest frequency is at 4Hz, this means that Beats Solo3 Wireless got a juicier bass than the Technics EAH A800

Highest Frequency

Beats Solo3 Wireless 20,000Hz

Technics EAH A800 40,000Hz

High frequency response measures if and how well an audio device reproduces high audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on the way through. Beats Solo3 Wireless's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, the higher the high-frequency response, the clearer and crispier the treble.

Technics EAH A800's highest frequency is at 40,000Hz, this means that Technics EAH A800 got a clearer and crispier treble than the Beats Solo3 Wireless

Sound Pressure Level

Beats Solo3 Wireless 100dB/mW

Technics EAH A800 105dB/mW

Sound pressure is the average variation in atmospheric pressure caused by the sound, the sound level .i.e how loud something is can be perceived differently by different people so we need to have a way of getting an objective measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms.

The sound pressure level, SPL, is the pressure level of a sound, measured in decibels, dB, Beats Solo3 Wireless's measurement is 100dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.

Technics EAH A800's sound pressure level measurement is 105dB/mW.

Driver Unit Size

Beats Solo3 Wireless 40mm

Technics EAH A800 40mm

The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that produces sound in the device, its size dictates the loudness of the headphone. Beats Solo3 Wireless driver unit is 40mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful and can produce better bass.

Technics EAH A800 driver unit is 40mm in diameter, making both devices similar in how loud their sound gets , as many tend to believe that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.

However, large drivers usually have difficulty reproducing high frequencies so yeah, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not mean that they deliver better sound.

Impedance

Beats Solo3 Wireless 35Ohms

Technics EAH A800 34Ohms

Impedance is the device's resistance to the electromagnetic current, when electricity flows through a wire, it experiences electrical resistance that counters the flow of current. The resistance of a conductor is measured in ohms. Beats Solo3 Wireless's impedance is 35Ohms, the lower the impedance, the easier it is to get higher volume and requires less power.

Technics EAH A800's impedance is 34Ohms. The impedance of earbuds is the electrical resistance of the driver unit present on the inside.

Has A Neodymium Magnet

Beats Solo3 Wireless ✓

Technics EAH A800 ✗

Neodymium magnets if used in audio devices produce a higher sensitivity and substantial sound output using less power to do so. They can help produce music at quite a high sound pressure level, SPL, with the use of high magnetic flux. The Beats Solo3 Wireless have this type of magnet.
