The Philips SHE9850/97 is designed with sound quality in mind. The receiver has a motor made up of a coil, a metal u-shaped armature, a pair of magnets, a drive rod, and a diaphragm. This enables electomagnetic currents to alter the armature’s polarity which in turn moves the drive rod and the diaphragm to generate the sound. The Philips team claims that their fine-tuning of the over all device produces a greater output at lower frequencies, meaning the consumer can get crisper sound quality without having to damage their ears with a louder volume.

philipsThe earbuds are angled with a 15-degree tilt which follows the average anatomy of the human ear, giving a better fit and comfort. It is important to take this claim with a grain of salt, as the shape of ears vary between people and even vary within the span of a person’s life.
