Our headphones for your optimal listening experience: headphones have become an integral part of everyday life for musicians and music lovers. headphones are needed and used everywhere and all the time. They are available in a wide variety of shapes and colors and yet have one common function: sound reinforcement .

Here, too, there is a wide range of quality requirements: In a mixing or mastering situation, for example, you need headphones with a frequency response that is as linear as possible in order to be able to recognize even the smallest differences in the sound. The normal music lover, on the other hand, places more value on an impressive listening experience of their favorite songs.

At session there is something for everyone, from hi-fi headphones to DJ headphones and in-ear headphones . Find out here which headphones suit you best and meet your needs.

HiFi headphones: sound fidelity for your favorite songs

“HiFi” stands for high fidelity and means something like “high fidelity of sound”. In principle, HiFi headphones are suitable for anyone who places a little more value on the listening experience. But this doesn't mean that you have to dig deep into your wallet. There are also HiFi headphones in the lower price segment that are completely sufficient for normal use.

Because these headphones do not require a specific form , they are available in countless different shapes and designs. Whether open, semi-open or closed, as in-ear , over-ear or on-ear headphones : you are free to decide which type of headphones you want to enjoy your high-fidelity experience with.

Since hi-fi headphones are often everyday companions, design and color play a role in addition to functionality. So you can choose a pair of headphones that suits your lifestyle.

Studio headphones: pure sound for professional use

As the name suggests, studio headphones are primarily used by sound engineers and music producers to mix and master tracks. Good studio headphones are particularly characterized by the fact that they reproduce the sound as accurately as possible .

As a rule, studio headphones are designed as headband headphones and are more likely to be found in the mid to upper price range. With the open technology , outside noise can be heard, but it allows for better stereo perception.

The closed technology ensures that outside noise, but also the music from the headphones, is isolated. The latter makes them particularly attractive for use in the vocal booth , as the microphone cannot record the music from the headphones.

DJ headphones: clear player on the turntables

An essential part of every DJ's equipment are durable and reliable DJ headphones. First-class models are characterized by high-quality workmanship, clear but voluminous sound reproduction and effective sound insulation .

In live situations, DJ headphones must be able to suppress extreme volumes so that the DJ can hear the songs clearly through the headphones . A flexible yet stable construction / acoustic is also essential for DJ headphones, as they are often clamped on one side between the shoulder and ear.

These features also make the DJ headphones popular for street use: loud city noises are isolated so that annoying outside noises can no longer disturb you when listening to music. DJ headphones can be found in all price segments and are therefore interesting for every music lover.

In-ear headphones: compact headphones for on the go and on stage

These small, practical headphones are particularly popular for enjoying music on the go. They are often used, especially for bus or train journeys , so that you don't have to hear loud engine noises or conversations. In-ear headphones are also used in the professional sector.

Musicians often wear in-ear headphoneson stage so that they can hear their singing or their instrument better and these are more flexible than monitor speakers . But they also serve to protect your hearing, because there is usually always an extremely high noise level on stage.

In-ear headphones are available in many different designs and are represented in all price ranges. In the high-end range , earpieces are often used that are specially adapted to the respective ear canal in order to ensure a perfect and comfortable fit.

The way these headphones are worn is somewhat special , as they are placed a little further into the ear canal to make the music experience more intense. Not everyone can get used to it. But if you don't have any problems with that, you'll love in-ear headphones !

Insider fact: The impedance thing

When buying headphones, there is often confusion when it comes to the theme of impedance. Various models are offered in several variants, which differ in the impedance value specified in ohms. But what does that mean and which type is right for me?

Without delving too deeply into the theme , it can be said that impedance refers to the resistance of the headphones . This is crucial for how easily the headphones can be driven by an amplifier . If the headphones are used exclusively on a hi-fi system or together with studio equipment, a high-impedance model is recommended as they offer a higher-resolution sound image. However, a suitable headphone preamplifier is required for this.

If the headphones are also to be used with smartphones , tablets , laptops and the like, a low-impedance model with less than 100 ohms is recommended.
