How to Choose the Perfect Pair of Headphones

Andrew the Cable NingaLeave a comment

As music enthusiasts, podcast listeners, and consumers of media, we all love a good set of headphones or earbuds. How to choose a good high quality pair of headphones can be different for each person. Style, budget, and so many other factors play a role into buyers’ decision on choosing the right headphones for them.

 

Every headphone comes with a different style, fitting your ears a little differently, and sounding slightly different when you take a listen. The first thing and perhaps the most obvious thing to decide when selecting the perfect pair of headphones is to figure out what form you want them to take. For example, there are earbuds and in-ear headphones that are generally more inexpensive, smaller which makes them great for mobile use and storage in a pocket or bag, and come with many advantages. That said, sound quality wise, they don’t come close to over-the-ear headphones. If you’re uncomfortable putting things in your ear, don’t go this route.

 

Then, there are ear pad headphones which are supremely comfortable. The small pads go over the ear, keeping your ears super comfortable while listening to music and media. These headphones’ provide great sound, are nice for exercising, and can also be quite portable. Good quality ones should keep a lot of the noise out however some of the cheaper models see sound seeping in. Lastly, there’s the full size headphones with ear cups that hug the ear. The design is fairly large, and can be both open and closed. These larger headphones have great bass, clear sound, and noise isolation. To that last point, if noise cancellation is an important feature you require for your headphones, it’s worth browsing the PrimeCables catalogue for specific models.

 

Among the best headphones in the PrimeCables catalogue are the stereo ergonomic earbud headphones with mic and volume control for $4.99, the premium hi-di DJ-style over-the-ear professional headphones for $19.99, wireless Bluetooth earbuds with mic and charging case for $49.99, enhanced bass and noise isolating earbuds in all colors for $11.99, and so much more. Any time you shop with PrimeCables, you’ll receive fast, free shipping on all orders above $49 to anywhere in Canada, free returns, and a 1-year product guarantee. Please feel free to look into the more than two dozen other headphone models and find the right design for your needs.

 

Don’t buy headphones you’re not fully satisfied with. Know why you’re buying them, what you’ll be using them for, and what you need them to do. Shop PrimeCables today for the lowest prices on headphones in Canada.

Get the Most out of your Home Theater System with these 4 Products

Andrew the Cable NingaLeave a comment

The best home theater experience for your home is achievable on-budget through PrimeCables’ discounts, deals, and exclusive offerings on home theater accessories. Be blown away by some of the promotions ongoing.

 

High quality images, sound, and features are just a click away at one of Canada’s favourite electronics eCommerce retailers. Instead of shopping in-store and overpaying on key home theater accessories, take a different approach.

 

Here are a few of the products that have Canadians coming back again and again to PrimeCables looking for more.

 

Bluetooth stereo soundbar

 

For small apartments, condos, basements with little space, and start-up home theater systems, a Bluetooth stereo soundbar is a solid compromise on surround sound speaker systems. Using a Bluetooth soundbar like this, you’ll have the added benefit of being able to cast music, smartphone audio, digital device audio, and more to it. Although you won’t get the same level of surround sound from a soundbar like this, this product goes beyond the limitations of functionality of more home theater-centric speakers.

 

TV wall mounts

 

If you want to do your home theater system right, it’s important to have the image centered in the right area. For most people, the best way to do that is not through a TV stand or stationing their screen on a general table. Instead, it’s mounting it against the wall. Create a truly theater-esque experience by mounting your television at optimal height using a TV wall mount, adjusting it according to window glare and preferences across tilt, swivel, and swinging arm functionality. As long as you have a flat-screen capable of being mounted, this is something to consider.

 

Headphones

 

We know headphones may not be the first product one thinks of when one delves into home theater accessories. That said, if you live with roommates or family members who have specific quiet times, the ability to plug headphones in and continue enjoying your home theater system is important.

 

HDMI cables

 

It’s important when building out a home theater system that you have the right collection of cables. Choosing from different lengths, different types of cables, and different qualities, the most popular selections for home theater use are USB cables and HDMI cables. More than USB type, HDMI cables are a favoured selection for audio-video connection because of the amount of information they can handle. Explore advanced 1080p or 4K images using home theater cables like this.

Creating your Own Theater At Home with Home Theater Accessories from PrimeCables

Andrew the Cable NingaLeave a comment

Home theater accessories have become so advanced, so tech-driven, and so affordable that even movie theaters are beginning to take a nod from the category. Even so, going to the movie theater is more expensive than other. Even if you go every few weeks and have the money to do so, it does add up. For those passionate about their consumption of media and entertainment, and who like seeing it on the big screen, a home theater system is the way to go.

 

By having your own movie theater at home, you can enjoy dinner and a movie whenever you want. Sure, there are many households out there who don’t have dedicated TV entertainment rooms. For those homes, maybe that works. Those that prefer a home theater area though have the benefit of being able to watch TV, movies, sports, concerts, and live events with families, friends, and co-workers in a safe, comfortable place.

 

The first step of crafting the ideal home theater system for you is to browse a site like PrimeCables. As one of Canada’s top eCommerce sites for home theater accessories, PrimeCables has a laundry list of different products. Don’t buy anything to start. Instead, just take a browse through with a pad and a piece of paper, and write down anything that catches your eye. This is just brainstorming so anything’s on the table, regardless of budget.

 

After you have a list of home theater accessories that interest you, from there, you can pair it down to what you can afford and/or what you really need. The different pairings in home theater systems naturally exclude certain products so weigh the pros and cons wisely. For example, going with a projector rules out the need for a TV wall mount. Similarly, if you go for an in-wall speaker system, you likely won’t need a surround sound system or Bluetooth soundbar. Search for what speaks to you. At the end of the day, you want to create the ultimate experience for you!

 

For a limited time, we’re in the midst of Home Theater Month at PrimeCables. With that comes fast, free shipping to anywhere in Canada on all orders above $29. See free returns and a 1-year product guarantee on all home theater accessories.

 

Shopping with PrimeCables, you’ll be able to distinguish your theater from the next. Customize according to your preferences and enjoy all your favourite movies right amongst the comfort of your own things. Grab your favourite snack, settle up, and watch away at home!
