making them have a larger driver unit than that of Beats Studio Buds by 1.3mm
, many people have a misconception that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers find it difficult to produce high frequencies so yes, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not mean that they produce better quality sound.
Beats Studio Buds's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio device produces low frequencies that can be heard, and if it alters the signal while at it. Beats Fit Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices produce equal bass
The Beats Studio Buds's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response indicates how well a particular audio component generates high recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through. Beats Fit Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
both devices produce equal treble
SPL, is the pressure level of sound, in decibels, dB, Beats Studio Buds's measurement is 100.5dB/mW.
Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source. Beats Fit Pro's sound pressure level measurement is 101.3dB/mW. How loud something is can be taken differently by separate persons, so we need to have a way of getting a standard measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms.
