HeadPhOnes....

         What's headphones? of course everyone know, but here i will give a specific definition of headphone. Headphones are a pair of small loudspeakers, or less commonly a single speaker, held close to a user's ear and connected to a signal source such as an audio amplifier, radio, CD player or portable Media Player. They are also known as stereophones, headsets or, colloquially, cans. The in-ear versions are known as earphones or earbuds. In the context of telecommunication, the term headset is used to describe a combination of headphone and microphone used for two-way communication, for example with a telephone.
          Nowadays we can look many design and type of headphone at market. For the example i will include the picture of headphones.
           First type is Circumaural.Circumaural headphones (sometimes called full size headphones) have circular or ellipsoid earpads that encompass the ears. Because these headphones completely surround the ear, circumaural headphones can be designed to fully seal against the head to attenuate any intrusive external noise. Because of their size, circumaural headphones can be heavy and there are some sets which weigh over 500 grams (1 lb). Good headband and earpad design is required to reduce discomfort resulting from weight.


           Next is  Supra-aural.Supra-aural headphones have pads that sit on top of the ears, rather than around them. They were commonly bundled with personal stereo during the 1980s. This type of headphone generally tends to be smaller and more lightweight than circumaural headphones, resulting in less attenuation of outside noise.
         Now we look for other interesting design.And actually i also have one ..gold colour you..huhu o lone to collect headphones..tHANk you. :)
