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 the means to get 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 710BT's measurement is 103dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
JBL Tune 520BT's sound pressure level measurement is 103dB/mW. The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that produces sound in the device, its size dictates the loudness of the headphone. JBL Tune 710BT driver unit is 40mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful and can produce better bass.
JBL Tune 520BT driver unit is 30mm in diameter,
which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of JBL Tune 710BT by 10mm
, many people have a misconception 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 produce better sound. Impedance is 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 710BT's impedance is 32Ohms, the lower the impedance, the easier it is to get higher volume and requires less power. JBL Tune 520BT's impedance is 32Ohms.
The impedance of earbuds is the electrical resistance of the driver unit present on the inside.
