Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve high-frequency range characteristics by forming headphones in such structure that music is listened to while both hands are put on the ears. CONSTITUTION:When the hands are put on the ears so as to listen to a low-frequency sound during music play, a high-frequency sound is strengthened and a human's voice and an intermediate-frequency sound are easy to listen to. This headphones serve as the both hands as mentioned above. Consequently, even a reflected sound is also listened to, so a feeling similar to 4CH stereophony is obtained in combination with a direct sound. Here, it is important to use a raw material which never resonates with a high-frequency sound and a raw material like the human hands is suitable.

る。[Detailed Description of the Invention] When listening to music, if you put your hand on your ear as if listening to a low tone,
The treble is enhanced. Then, human voices and midrange sounds rise up. In this way, when you listen to stereo music with headphones on, which act as both hands, the high-pitched sounds are amplified, making the localization of the sound clearer. If you put a built-in speaker in these headphones and move the base of the headphones so that they come behind or over your ears, you can use them as regular headphones. Also, if you attach a microphone to these headphones, it can also be used as a microphone for recording. When you wear these headphones, you can also hear the sound reflected by the four-dimensional headphone, so the sound comes directly to your ears, giving you a feeling similar to 4CH stereo. The problem with these headphones is that high-pitched sounds reflect back into your ears, so it's important to use a material that won't resonate high-pitched sounds. Materials similar to human hands are most suitable. The above is an explanation of four-dimensional headphones.

Claims

[Claims]

Similar to placing your hands over your ears when listening to music, these are like headphones that act as your hands. Also, the headphones have built-in speakers and microphones.
