A community portal about Headphones with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: Headphones are a pair of transducers that receive an electrical signal from a media player or receiver and use speakers placed in close proximity to the ears to convert the signal into audible sound waves. In the context of telecommunication, the term headset is also commonly understood to refer to a combination of headphones and microphone used for two-way communication, for example with a mobile phone.

Custom Earphones

Custom earphones are custom made ear gels with miniature earphone speakers fitted inside at the time of manufacture.  Just like regular earphones, custom earphones come with varying numbers of drivers, with entry level models having a single driver and higher end models having upto three balanced armature drivers.

A benefit of opting for a custom earphone with built in drivers is that you only have a single device to think about - no need to worry about the custom ear gels getting split up from your earphones.  The all-in-one design also offers advantages over custom made sleeves by being more compact - the drivers are embedded deep within the ear mould - and therefore providing a neater solution.  Interestingly, it can actually also work out cheaper to purchase a complete custom earphone with drivers built in, rather than a high end standard earphone and then an additional custom sleeve.
