The JLab Epic Air Sport'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 implies that
both devices make sound with equal bass
The JLab Epic Air Sport's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio device generates high audible frequencies and if it changes to the signal on its way through. Beats Fit Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
both devices can generate equal treble
The sound pressure level, is the pressure level of sound, measured in decibels, dB, JLab Epic Air Sport's measurement is 110dB/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. The sound pressure level, something is can be taken differently by separate persons, so we need to have a way of getting an objective measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms.
