The world of headphones is getting shadier and shadier everyday. It is getting difficult, even for audiophiles, to pick one pair over the other. Obviously the deciding factor is the sound quality, but the overall package value makes it tough to choose. The selections are limitless in the market, but what are some factors that make it narrow down to fewer and more targeted choices? You have to know what to look for when shopping for high-end headphones. You also have to know the application you are going to use them for. Are you a regular MP3 player listener or are you a definitive gamer? Do you like to listen to more softer and classical music or do you prefer hard rock and more bass straining audio categories? These are the questions that you should ask yourself when looking for a new pair of high-end headphones. It is especially critical because of their price. You must know your listening criteria before you invest into a pair of headphones only to regret your decisions later.

We have evaluated various headphones and earphones that belong to many audio categories and what we have today is designed for multimedia enthusiasts. We have evaluated a pair of noise-canceling technology earphones previously from HCT Technology and their performance was commendable. HCT Technology is back again with their DH-720G headphones that are designed for silent movie viewers who want to get a full 5.1 surround sound effect for their utter pleasure. What has to be the most intriguing part about these headphones is their ability to deliver full 5.1 surround sound to the end user.

If you remember, Zalman was one of the first few to deliver 5.1-surround sound with their headphones. It created a huge surge in the market and hinted on the future of headphones industry. Since many consumers have already invested and noticed a difference between 5.1 and 2.1 speaker sets, it is only logical for manufacturers to develop something to stimulate our music listening senses. And what could be better than to bring the surround effect to portable and much compact headphones. The only question we have is – will these headphones sound just as delightful as a stand-alone speaker set with a dedicated subwoofer?

Without further ado, let’s begin our journey through the realm of HCT DH-720G headphones…
