Has Active Noise Cancellation (Anc)
Technics EAH A800
✓
Sennheiser HD 560S ✗
Active noise cancellation uses more advanced technology to actively counter noise. How it works, it detects and analyzes 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 zero hence "diluting" the 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
Technics EAH A800
✗
Sennheiser HD 560S ✓
Passive Noise Cancellation uses well-designed ear cups to seal out unwanted noise. This is used for both in-ear earphones and over-ear headphones where the headphone itself will keep surrounding noise out.
The Sennheiser HD 560S sits tightly in place, creating an acoustic seal that reduces background noise and prevents your music from leaking out.
Lowest Frequency
Technics EAH A800
4Hz
Sennheiser HD 560S 6Hz
Low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device reproduces low audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it. Sennheiser HD 560S's lowest frequency is at 6Hz, the lower the low-frequency response, the stronger and juicier the bass.
Technics EAH A800's lowest frequency is at 4Hz, this implies that
Sennheiser HD 560S got a juicier bass than the Technics EAH A800
Highest Frequency
Technics EAH A800
40000Hz
Sennheiser HD 560S 38000Hz
High frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio device reproduces high audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it. Sennheiser HD 560S's highest frequency is at 38000Hz, the higher the high-frequency response, the clearer and crispier the treble.
Technics EAH A800's highest frequency is at 40000Hz, this implies that
Technics EAH A800 got a clearer and crispier treble than the Sennheiser HD 560S
Sound Pressure Level
Technics EAH A800
105dB/mW
Sennheiser HD 560S 110dB/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, Sennheiser HD 560S's measurement is 110dB/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
Technics EAH A800
40mm
Sennheiser HD 560S 38mm
The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that produces sound in the device, its size dictates the loudness of the headphone. Sennheiser HD 560S driver unit is 38mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful and can produce better bass.
Technics EAH A800 driver unit is 40mm in diameter,
making them have a larger driver unit than that of Sennheiser HD 560S by 2mm
, 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 yes, larger drivers are capable of generating louder sound, but this does not mean that they deliver better sound.
Impedance
Technics EAH A800
34Ohms
Sennheiser HD 560S 120Ohms
Defined as the device's resistance to the electromagnetic current, as electricity flows through a conductor, it faces electrical resistance that counters the flow of current. The resistance of a conductor is measured in ohms. Sennheiser HD 560S's impedance is 120Ohms, 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.
