Reply to comment by Drago-0900 in Quick question why do we not see coaxial speakers in headphones that often? by Drago-0900

I don't know what you mean by sounding better. Headphones are often overpriced because they're a fashoin accessory, so there's that.

The headphones in question are sony whxm4s. And the loudspeakers sound much more clear with better bass, mid, and treble.

Ok, I see. That;s not really a fair comparison then. Wireless headphones don't sound clear in general and the ANC ones are usually tuned for a lot of bass and not much else. So it has nothing to do with driver configuration. $20 Koss heaphones or Truthear earphones will outperform most speakers with their clarity. There's no question about that. The modern tech really sucks when it comes to sound quality.

I think it's a good opportunity to try some wired audiophile headphones or earphones. Stuff like KSC75, SHP9500 or Etymotic earphones. IF you like the sound of your speakers, then these should blow your mind with how much clarity they have for the price.

Ill definitely try those KCS75s and a SHP9500 after I get paid. After all I did just buy around 80$ in car speaker equipment. Thanks for the info though
