Westone 2 True-Fit Earphone Review

Westone 2 True-Fit Earphone For most listeners can use $ 100 or less, a great noise in the ear with a portable audio device. But the more sophisticated you are, the easier to obtain the portfolio requirements. Unless you expect, even among the most sensitive to the Audiophile, somewhere between $ 200 and $ 300 should do the trick. Autumn in the center of this area defines the true 2-Fit Headphones Weston, $ 250, to provide superior audio quality in a wide range of genres. Although not as brilliant as his brothers, step-ups, Westone 3s, their size and low price make it a worthwhile investment for most.

The conception of Westone 2 True-Fit Earphone are somewhat conventional, because the cable. Each wire is individually coated with black rubber and then the general form of braided cord. Westone settlement of the claim that comfort functionality and durability in both the spinal cord contributes. The cable, which measures 50 inches, ending with a gold-plated plug L and is a cursor to Y for the prevention of cables. Westone options include a line, the volume increases, the total length of 10 centimeters. There are also quarter-inch adapter, a cleaning tool and a box of crayons sweet face, which, with perhaps the largest selection of earplugs I've ever seen. There are three types of rubber stoppers and rigid tapering S, M, L, three dimensions of the flange soft silicone, three types of furniture foam in different lengths, and a triple.

 
With a variety of ear plugs, it is fairly easy to get a degree, comfortable and safe with headphones Westone 2. They are much smaller than the Westone 3, which is a big difference when it comes to packaging ago. However, the earphones on the large side, so that some users experience problems. The bulbous shape is designed to be placed in the external ear, with son through the top. The design is very ergonomic and the weight of the earpiece, the headset is very comfortable for extended wear. We do not have much sense of bent wire, the tip of one ear, but this is very personal.

 
If you are able to get a good set of 2 Jack Weston, you'll be rewarded with an excellent passive noise isolation. Even with music, ambient noise is significantly reduced, making these headphones the ideal choice for frequent travelers. And probably from the thin and sinuous design of the spinal cord, very little noise when the cable is brushed on the front of the body.

 
As its name suggests, Westone earphones 2s filled with two balanced armature drivers in each earpiece, similar to the Shure SE420. You can get a low frequency driver and one for heights, so that the headphones are not overly taxed. In other words, distortion, bass free and very fragile. 2 Westone offers excellent sound quality comparable to the Shure SE420, what that means. Alice Deejay's "Better Off Alone" clean the tube by the pattern and downs, but no hat too much detail, "Breathe on Me Britney developed" Similarly, he demonstrates the ability of the ear to shine dance music .

 
We continued the test with a sample of various types. Dire Straits Brothers in Arms "was opened and disturbing, as it should, and Babyshambles F *** Forever," an excellent example of the details and changes can be produced. In all, 2 headphones Westone demonstrated its ability to meet a variety of musical tastes, making it an excellent choice for multipurpose phone. And although it may be a bit "weaker than the Westone 3S, their small size and lower price is a better recommendation on the whole line.
