Cable Length

Sennheiser HD 560S 3meters

A long cable ensures more freedom of movement, but remember that every cable based on the conducting material used has a certain amount of parasitic resistance, inductance, and capacitance. How much depends on the length and construction. Sennheiser HD 560S comes with a 3meters cable.

Has Passive Noise Reduction

Sennheiser HD 560S ✓

Passive Noise Cancellation uses well-designed ear cups to seal out environment 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

Sennheiser HD 560S 6Hz

Low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component 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.

Highest Frequency

Sennheiser HD 560S 38000Hz

High frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio device reproduces high audible frequencies and if it 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.

Sound Pressure Level

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 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, 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.

Driver Unit Size

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.

Impedance

Sennheiser HD 560S 120Ohms

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. Sennheiser HD 560S's impedance is 120Ohms, the lower the impedance, the easier it is to get higher volume and requires less power.

A Review By Comparison Of The Jbl Tune 710Bt Vs. Sennheiser Hd 560S

Has A 3.5Mm Male Connector

Sennheiser HD 560S ✓

Being an industry standard audio plug, a standard 3.5mm male connector is suitable for use with all MP3 players and computer sound cards. This means that it is commonly used in stereo headphones to your phone or connecting your phone to an external amplifier, sound bars, your car radio, etc. Sennheiser HD 560S has this connector giving it a wider range of connectivity with most of the sound devices out there. All plugs have at least a tip and sleeve with the number of rings that stand as a differentiating factor.
