Take five minutes of free time and find out how to choose the best wireless headphones to your computer, or even to your smartphone and any game console, without spending a fortune. It can be done!

Let’s start from the technical side. Before seeing in detail some models of wireless headphones among those offering the best value for money, it is good to clarify some fundamental aspects that can distinguish one type of headphones other. Among them, is the number of audio channels supported.

There are basically five types of headphones: those who have two stereo speakers (one ear), those who have two virtual 5.1 speaker but simulate the sound system 5.1 sound, the real 5.1 with four speakers per ear and the 7.1 virtual or real ( with 10 speakers). For music are particularly suitable stereo headphones, while the activity of gaming or watching movies can be more specified other.

We must also make a distinction between open headphones, half open and closed. As it can be imagined quite easily, he closed headphones provide the highest degree of sound insulation (keep out sounds from the outside and do not feel at who’s around what you are listening to) but may annoy those not accustomed to bring, those open instead provide more comfort but do not isolate the sound. Those parted try to provide a good compromise between the first two.

Headsets using an infrared system are generally cheaper but have a rather limited, while radio frequency while not raising the price of very able to have a greater range (typically 100 meters, exceeding even large obstacles). Then there are headphones that use digital systems such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi networks: the first reasonably priced but have a very broad, also compress the audio signal that is played; the Wi-Fi represent the best that the market currently offers, not compress the signal, have a wide range, but they have rather high prices.

Choose headphones according to your aesthetic tastes but even more according to their degree of comfort, must fit the shape of your head and be ” compatible ” with all your needs and requirements. For example, if you wear glasses, you have to be careful to buy the headset comfortable, possibly adjustable, that does not make you feel uncomfortable every time you’re wearing them. These details make the difference.
