Why Over Ear Wireless Headphones Are Better Than Earbuds

Over ear wireless headphones are more effective at isolating you from external sounds due to their huge ear cups. They also tend to be equipped to utilize active noise cancellation more effectively than earbuds which can be helpful in noisy environments.

The Sony WH-1000XM5 are world-class headphones that deliver exceptional audio quality and impressive active noise cancellation. They can support a wide variety of audio formats including high-resolution lossless streaming via the LDAC codec.

Comfort

Over-ear headphones cover your ears and offer more comfort than in-ear headphones. They are also lighter in weight since they do not have a cord attached to your head like earbuds do, and they typically have more hardware inside (like batteries, microphones and drivers) due to their larger size. This makes them more mobile and, therefore, better suited for travel.

A comfortable pair of headphones should feature softly cushioned earcups that fit around your ear and a lightweight and non-stressing headband. The headphones should be adjustable to allow you to adjust the ear cups and headband to get a better fit. For on ear long-term listening sessions choose a pair of headphones with extra soft memory foam in the ear cups.

Certain headphones for over-ear use have active noise cancellation, which reduces the background noise. This allows you to concentrate on your audio without being distracted by external noises. This will make your podcasts or music easier to listen to and could aid in focusing more at the office or when you're on a plane ride.

Over-ear headphones can also reduce the background noise by forming an excellent seal. Although you'll still hear outside noise, it's generally less noticeable than with in-ear headphones and won't disturb as much when you enter a noisy area.

On-ear headphones rest on your ears rather than on top of them, which can be more comfortable for those who have certain ear piercings or glasses that make in-ear headphones uncomfortable. They are also lighter and more portable than over-ear headphones because they have a smaller size and are more compact in your bag.

Some headphones come with additional padding inside the ear cups to enhance comfort. They'll typically be open-back designs that allow you to listen to your surroundings as well. This is an excellent choice for those who like to be able to hear their surroundings as well as their music.

Sound

If you're investing this kind of money on headphones you want them sound great. Luckily, Bluetooth headphones have come a long way in recent years, and even over-ear wireless models can deliver a rich, balanced sound that rivals their wired counterparts. Modern Bluetooth chips should be energy efficient and can include audio codecs like aptX and THX, and come with comfortable earcups.

Over-ear headphones can offer a more immersive listening experience than on-ear styles as they cover your ears completely. This could create a more expansive and clear soundstage, as well as more separation between vocals and instruments. Larger earcups can accommodate larger drivers, which will give your music that fullness and clarity that audiophiles seek.

Over-ear headphones can let more ambient sound out than models with on-ear earphones. It's a small cost to pay for the isolation that they offer, especially in noisy places like public transport or at work. These headphones are also heavier and larger than on-ear ones and are therefore more difficult to pack into a bag.

Battery life is another factor to take into consideration Over-ear headphones are typically offering 20 to 60 hours of playback. This is affected by the amount of noise cancellation as well as the volume you listen to.

Wireless headphones on ear can last between 30 and 40 hours, depending on the model. The average is between the two, and models that last longer tend to be heavier and more compact.

The Sony WHCH720Ns have numerous features for a low price. They're not as luxurious as the flagship WH-1000XM4s, but they still come with the likes of multi-point pairing, adaptive active noise cancellation and support for Sony's 360 Reality Audio and DSEE upscaling technology.

If you're on a limited budget but still need the most reliable wireless over-ear headphones for the money take a look at the Bowers & Wilkins PX7 S2. These stylish headphones have an elegant design and robust set of features that include an entire ANC mode.

Noise Cancellation

Over-ear wireless headphones are usually better at active noise cancellation than earbuds. This is because they cover a greater area around your ears with their larger outer housings, which means they're able and produce more sound to block out any sounds that you're listening to.

Some models come with multiple ANC settings to choose according to the situation in which you are listening. They can also allow external audio to be played through when you are in public or at work. Focal's entrance into the burgeoning premium market for over-ear noise-canceling headphones is a perfect example with its beautiful-looking Bathys that provide a stunningly powerful, high-res sound that brings mixing booth level quality to your everyday listening.

Sony's XM4s is another pair of over-ear wireless headphones we tried. They have passive noise cancellation, which allows you to concentrate on your music and a range of features that are useful, such as voice control, LDAC to play hi-res audio playback, as well as an intuitive application that lets you change the EQ settings for any song. From the raucous lyrics of Sinead's Compares 2 U to the trembling bridge these cans listen to every sway and sibilant cries with unmatched accuracy.

When it comes to selecting the best pair for you, it ultimately depends on your personal preferences and budget. Over-ears are more comfortable than earbuds, and are less likely to fall out. If you intend to wear them for a long time, it's worth investing in a pair that has an earbud that is properly fitted.

The extra size of these headphones allows them to carry a larger battery and more advanced features like superior drivers and enhanced active noise cancellation technology. They're also a less expensive alternative to the audiophile models that can cost as much as $250 / AU$450 per set.

Earbuds are a cheaper and less bulky option, however they do not block out as much ambient noise and don't have the same range of features.

Battery Life

For headphones to truly be portable, they need to offer long playback time. The top wireless headphones for over-ear use provide around 30 hours of uninterrupted music without active noise cancellation being turned on (this drastically reduces the battery life) and models that offer ANC are usually more durable.

Over-ear wireless headphones have larger ear cups that can take larger batteries, which offer more battery longevity than smaller in-ears and on-ears. However, over-ears tend to sacrifice some portability in order to provide longer durations of use, and additional features like ear cups that fold and carrying cases.

The majority of over-ear headphones are wireless and connect to audio sources via an audio cable that connects to 3.5mm ports. Professional-grade models can utilize larger connectors, such as 6.3mm or an XLR. Over-ear headphones with wired connections can be connected to audio outputs from external sources with a separate cable. Wireless models connect via Bluetooth to a mobile phone.

Some wireless headphones with over-ears have built-in microphones, allowing you to make hands-free phone calls using your mobile. Some models have an adjustable volume button that allows you to skip tracks, or to start and stop playback. Some wireless headphones over-ear can even charge your phone when in use, though it is typically only used on high-end models.

Wireless headphones for over-ears can deliver excellent audio performance, whether you prefer the booming sound of EDM music or the balanced sound of classical music. Many of them are open-back, meaning they don't close off the ears from ambient sounds and feature drivers of various sizes and types to help create a more expansive, richer sounding music.

Focal's first headphones are an audiophile-grade wireless over-ear headphone that brings mixing booth quality to your daily listening. The headphones are specifically designed to work with Apple devices only, which limits their functionality. However should you wish to use the headphones on your iPhone or iPad they will provide you with a rich and on ear expressive sonic experience.
