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, JBL Tune 520BT's measurement is 103dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
Sennheiser Momentum 4 Wireless's sound pressure level measurement is 106dB/mW. The driver unit is the component that produces sound in the device, its size dictates the loudness of the headphone. JBL Tune 520BT driver unit is 30mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful and can produce better bass.
Sennheiser Momentum 4 Wireless driver unit is 42mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of JBL Tune 520BT by 12mm
, 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 are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not mean that they deliver better sound. Defined as the device's resistance to the electromagnetic current, as electricity flows through a wire, it faces electrical resistance that counters the flow of current.
The resistance of a wire is measured in ohms. JBL Tune 520BT's impedance is 32Ohms, the lower the impedance, the easier it is to get higher volume and requires less power. Sennheiser Momentum 4 Wireless's impedance is 60Ohms.
The impedance of earbuds is the electrical resistance of the driver unit present on the inside. If your headphones play wirelessly, cancel ambient noise, or enhance your listening experience with active features, their battery life will reduce over time. The device's battery life is given by the manufacturer, with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.
JBL Tune 520BT's battery life is 57 hours
Sennheiser Momentum 4 Wireless's battery life is 60 hours. Each time you recharge your headphones, they get a little less listening time. The effect is barely noticeable at first.
But over a few years, you may find that your device, no longer plays for long like it used to. It takes 2 hours to fully charge the JBL Tune 520BT's battery. It is recommended to fully charge the battery before using the headphones for the first time or when they have been unused for extended periods.
