What are some good earbud types and why??
The potential of earbuds There is great disagreement about: Whether earbuds could potentially sound good, given their small size. Whether any actual earbuds sound good, or whether the whole idea needs further development. Which earbuds sound good and which sound bad. Which of the expensive earbuds sound so good that the extra cost is justified. After testing many headphones and earbuds and applying my extensive experience tweaking equalizers, I think that earbuds actually have the potential to sound even *better* than standard headphones. In any case, all headphones and earbuds need a new approach: a calibrated equalization curve built into the player, to yield flat response. Megabass is a step toward such a compensation curve. Like the Etymotics Research , earbuds have the potential to have smoother response than even the best popular standard headphones, such as the Sennheiser Electronics I’ve dialed in some truly vibrant, open sound using equalization together with cheaper earbuds.
