Frequently Asked Questions (FAQS)

What are the differences between over ear, on ear, and in ear headphones?

Over ear headphones fully enclose your ears, offering superior comfort, noise isolation, and immersive sound with better bass response—ideal for long listening sessions or studio use. On ear headphones sit on top of your ears with smaller cups, providing a more compact design but less noise cancellation and potential discomfort over time. In ear headphones fit inside the ear canal, delivering portability and good passive noise isolation, though fit varies and long-term wear may cause fatigue. Choose based on your primary use: over ear for home or travel, on ear for lightweight portability, and in ear for discreet, mobile listening.

How do I determine the right fit and comfort level for my over ear headphones?

Look for adjustable headbands with padding to distribute weight evenly across your head. Ear cup size and padding should fully enclose your ears without pinching—soft leather or memory foam enhances comfort for extended sessions. Check weight—lighter models (under 300g) reduce neck strain. Test for clamping force—a relaxed or snug fit prevents slippage without squeezing. For Australian users, prioritize breathable materials to manage heat during summer. Take advantage of return periods to ensure comfort matches your head shape and listening duration.

What features should I look for when selecting over ear headphones?

Key features include sound quality (wide frequency response and large 40-50mm drivers), noise cancellation for blocking ambient noise, comfort features like padded ear cups and adjustable headbands, battery life (20-50 hours for wireless models), connectivity options (Bluetooth 5.0/5.2 or wired), durability with replaceable parts, and additional features like voice call quality or app-based EQ customization. The ideal pair balances these features with your usage (home, travel, or professional), environment, and budget for optimal performance.

How should I maintain and clean my over ear headphones?

Wipe ear cups and headband with a soft, dry cloth after use. For leather or faux leather ear pads, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap monthly and dry immediately; apply leather conditioner quarterly if recommended. For fabric or foam pads, brush off debris with a dry toothbrush or use a damp cloth sparingly. Clean cables with a dry cloth to prevent wear. Store in a protective case to avoid dust and scratches. Avoid harsh chemicals or submerging in water, and keep away from extreme heat or humidity to protect components.

Can over ear headphones be used for both casual listening and professional audio work?

Yes, over ear headphones can serve both purposes depending on design and features. For casual listening, models with excellent sound, ANC, and comfort are ideal for enjoying music or movies. For professional audio work, headphones with wide frequency response, detailed soundstaging (especially in open-back designs), and wired options for zero latency are crucial for accurate audio production. Choose versatile models with balanced sound and switchable wired/wireless modes for dual use, ensuring comfort for extended wear and precision for critical listening.

What is the difference between wired and wireless over ear headphones?

Wired over ear headphones connect via cable, offering no latency for precise audio, no battery concerns, and often better sound quality per dollar due to direct signal transmission. However, they limit mobility due to cords. Wireless over ear headphones use Bluetooth for cable-free freedom, providing portability and ease for commuting or travel, with features like ANC or app control. Drawbacks include battery life limitations (20-80 hours typically), potential signal interference, and slightly higher cost for comparable sound. Choose based on your primary use case and preference for convenience versus audio precision.

Are there over ear headphones designed for specific purposes like gaming or travel?

Yes, gaming over ear headphones focus on low-latency audio, surround sound capabilities, and built-in boom mics for clear voice chat. Travel over ear headphones prioritize active noise cancellation to block plane or train noise, long battery life (up to 29-50 hours), and compact folding designs for portability. Choose gaming headphones for interactive, detailed sound with communication features, and travel headphones for noise isolation and endurance, matching features to your specific audio application.

How can I maximize the sound quality of my over ear headphones?

Ensure proper fit by adjusting the headband and ear cups for a full seal around your ears. Choose high-quality audio sources—stream or download in lossless formats or Hi-Res Audio for richer detail. Adjust EQ settings using companion apps or device equalizers to customize sound to your preference. Minimize interference by staying within Bluetooth range and avoiding crowded Wi-Fi areas. Keep headphones clean to prevent muffled sound. For wired headphones, consider using a high-quality DAC or amp if your device lacks power. These steps ensure optimal audio clarity across all genres.

What benefits do over ear headphones offer for daily use?

Over ear headphones deliver immersive sound quality with larger drivers (40-50mm) and ear-enclosing design for deep bass and detailed highs. Noise isolation or ANC blocks out urban noise, ensuring focused listening in busy environments. Padded ear cups and headbands allow comfortable long-term wear without fatigue. Their versatility suits varied activities—work with clear call mics, travel with long battery life, or relaxation with spatial audio. Durable builds with protective cases handle travel or outdoor use. They also minimize sound leakage, perfect for shared spaces, balancing rich audio with everyday functionality.

Should I buy open-back or closed-back over ear headphones?

Open-back over ear headphones offer natural soundstaging and wider audio imaging due to air flow through the ear cups, ideal for critical listening or studio use in quiet homes. However, they leak sound and provide poor noise isolation. Closed-back over ear headphones provide better noise isolation and minimal sound leakage, perfect for commuting or noisy environments, but have a more confined soundstage and potential heat buildup during long wear. Choose open-back for private, high-fidelity listening at home, and closed-back for versatile, public-friendly use.

How do over ear headphones contribute to an immersive listening experience?

Over ear headphones deliver an immersive experience through large drivers and ear-enclosing design that produce deep bass, crisp highs, and a wide soundstage, creating a concert-like feel for music, movies, or gaming. Active noise cancellation eliminates ambient noise, ensuring uninterrupted focus during commutes or travel. Comfortable padding allows hours of wear without fatigue, enhancing long listening sessions. Spatial audio features add 3D sound for realistic media playback. They also minimize leakage, maintaining privacy in shared spaces. These elements create a personal audio sanctuary for deep engagement with content across varied environments.

How should I protect my over ear headphones from damage?

Store headphones in their provided hard case or pouch when not in use to prevent scratches, dust, or impact damage. Avoid extreme temperatures—don't leave them in direct sunlight or hot cars as heat can warp materials or damage batteries. For wireless headphones, keep charging ports clean and avoid overcharging. Handle cables carefully by wrapping them loosely to prevent strain on connectors. Keep away from moisture unless IP-rated and dry immediately if wet. Handle gently—avoid dropping or over-adjusting headbands. These practices will extend the life of your headphones and maintain their performance.

Good quality

Good quality, easy to follow instructions, speedy delivery. my only complaint is that the protective plastic film on the mirror glass was extremely difficult to peel off and left as glue like residue that could only be removed with acetone and elbow grease.

The best dog tracker I ever had!

The best dog tracker I ever had, my first one was very expensive and I had to buy a Sim card and get an expensive subscription through Optus. Also, the lightest Tracker I have ever owned. It was very very easy to set up.
Highly recommended, you would do well to buy this one!
