1 Ipad 2 Headphones

[Sandee Embree]

Probablythe 157 threads on headphone, but I need to know one thing. How do I know what kind of headphone I need for X type of work? Let's say I want the best headphone possible for my iPad to play with synth, can i just close my eyes, buy a very expensive pairs of headphone and expect good result? I am using this pair with everything (sounds good, but not fantastic):

With my computer, I use headphone to watch documentary on Netflix.

With my iPad, I use headphone with iOS synths 90% of the time.

Why my guitar amp (Yamaha THRII) I play with my nylon guitar and my Telecaster.

Bluetooth and noise cancelling can be so useful for a lot of things but cable must be an option too. I use Bluetooth to listen to TV while I have a cable into my iPad so the headphones mix the 2 sources. The brand I use also allows my headphone to feed my wife's headphone over the single TV Bluetooth path when we need to keep the volume down (like when we have house guests)

I use Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro 80Ohm for closed back and DT880 Pro for semi open. Both are dope and pretty industry standard, especially the DT770. If I had to choose one for ipad I would get the DT770 I guess.

i got the new beats over ear headphones for free when i bought a macbook, they add to much bass but they were free haha , maybe it is worth looking at those sonys @LinearLineman suggested they look nice and are like 100 bucks

I've got the 770s (80 ohms). Very natural except for a rather prominent bass which is a matter of taste for sure.

They're not very loud, if that's the priority then the 32 ohms model might be the better choice.

iDevices have very low output impedance and they can drive low-impedance headphones very well.

They're very comfortable to wear but if you're sitting in a hot environment, you'll be sweating like crazy under the completely closed earpads.

Another advantage: They're one of the few closed-back headphones. The outside world will hear almost nothing.

I prefer my AKG headphones for their more clear and transparent sound but you can't hear loud music without people around you getting disturbed.

@maxwellhouser I'm mostly using them for making music so it's not uncommon to have individual audio tracks at below -15dB peak level. That's very different to compressed audio material and it's the reason why I prefer to have enough reserves when needed.

It's not that critical .. i have Sennheiser HD 650 (300 OHM) and i have no issue with using them both in jack connector of my iPad MINI 5 or using lightning to jack dongle with iPhone 8 PRO .. it's loud enough, i even don't use it on maximal loudness because it's simply too loud

Actually there has been a lot of talk about these, from reading other forums one might even get the impression that these must be the best DJ headphones ever ?

I found them much too uncomfortable to wear for a longer time though.

Sound-wise they have a "smile curve", that is recessed mids with a prominent bass and treble. However if you use them with Morphit (which you should!) then they make absolutely great mixing headphones. They're also really useful for tracking due to their closed design. As a pair of all-round headphones they're excellent IMO.

I own far too many headphones, but the great thing about TB Morphit is that it helps to standardise them all towards a common sound signature. In the past if I was to check a mix on different headphones the differences between them would be startling. However if you use Morphit the differences become much less pronounced. In practice this means that the DT770s are just as useful for checking a mix as much more expensive headphones.

It certainly makes the differences far less pronounced. It can't fix every headphone, for example my Bose QC25's don't take the equalisation as well as some of the others, and still sound very coloured.

But if I use TB Morphit on the DT770s, or Senneheiser HD650, or Focal Spirit Pros then the sound signatures become very similar between all three headphones. The HD650s still have a different feel in the bass due to their open design, but frequency-wise the differences become fairly subtle.

The headphone input is dirty and the device thinks something is plugged in. Use a Q-tip with most of the cotton stripped off and apply a little alcohol then clean out the headphone input. I have also used the corners of facial cotton pads. This happened to me with an iPhone and an iPad. Works every time.

So I was just chilling and water was near me and then it fell into the water causing me to be in headphones mode even though I don't hot any headphones I've tried to ho in sound and ho on the safety headphones thing but it's not working for my iPad

If the problem persists after performing the restart, it may be necessary to reset your iPad settings. While this reset will not cause any loss of data, as a precaution, it is always wise to ensure that you have a current iCloud or iTunes backup before performing the reset:

Water and electronics do not make happy bedfellows. Your iPad is not designed to be water resistant. While it may survive being splashed with water if immediately dried, it will almost certainly suffer irreparable damage if it allowed to get wet or is submerged.

The sound on my iPad all of a sudden stopped working. The sound works fine with headphones in and I can change the volume, but when I unplug the headphones I get absolutely no sound from the speaker, and I can't even change the volume.

I had the same problem yesterday. The headset worked fine but I could get no sound of my speakers on my iPad 3. I searched all over and there are a variety of answers to this from the absurd to the logical. Needless to say I tried them all.

What worked for me was blowing very hard into the power connector just below the speakers. I had tried compressed air in all the openings and the only place where the speakers worked intermittently was when I was pushing air in to the power connector. I happen to have a dog that sheds a lot of very fine hair. My guess is that one or more of those went inside that slot and insulated some connection. By blowing hard inside I seemed to have cleared the problem but not totally. The sound is still a little bit scratchy.

It worked for me! Thank you! I tried removing and inserting different headphones and it didn't seem to work, I also blew in the headphone area but what worked was blowing in the area of the power connector, the sound seems fine for now.

I went through all the other fixes mentioned before trying the reset. I saw this comment and I was experiencing the same thing, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and many others were working fine but many apps only had sound through the headphones. I restored as a new iPad and it is finally working after dealing with this issue for months. Now I am downloading apps back one at a time and can hopefully eliminate the culprit. Thank you for this comment! It is the only mention I've seen after scouring many, many help forums so I needed to leave feedback hopefully helping some other frustrated user.

None of them are working and I'm so annoyed and frustrated cause I want to watch YouTube and its the same with it keep on saying that there's head phones in but There's not and I have tried everything can someone please help me cause this is my school iPad and it's killing me no joke

I had the same problem. There is a switch that switches the sound to the head phones when the head phones are pluged in. This switch can get stuck in head phone mode. Get a head phone jack (plug) push it in and out till the switch releases.

Then I launched Skype on ipad and made a video call without the headphones plugged in and it was back to volume (instead of headphones ringer), I opened youtube and the videos were playing with sound.

What worked for me was using the toothpick method to push up on the bottom of the dock connector (ipad laying down with screen facing up) something must have been bent out of place when trying to charge or dock the iPad. Be careful not to break the connector. Apply enough pressure to see the connector physically move up.
