What is bass and trebel in speakers and how this "Thumping effect" is produced

"While buying any speaker or headphone we all would have encountered the terms bass and treble, and most of us didn't care to know about it. Well if now you are interested in knowing about these terms and how they enhance your listening experience then continue reading this article"

 Humans have a listening range from 20Hz to 20kHz. This wide spectrum is mainly divided into three categories Bass, Mid and High(Treble).

What is bass?

Bass is basically low-frequency high amplitude sound waves which often produce resonance effect and creates a sensation of vibration or thumping around the source producing sound. This aspect is music is most loved by music lovers across the globe as this produces a boom sound effect.

How bass is produced?

Bass is produced by subwoofers which are specially designed to create extremely low-frequency sound waves. Subwoofers cover a small range from 20Hz to 200Hz. They usually contain multiple woofer drivers enclosed in large wooden cases.

What are mids?

Mids means mid frequency sounds. This includes low-mids, mid mids and high-mids. Low-mids are between 250Hz and 500Hz(approx). Mid-mids are between 500Hz to 2000Hz/2KHz(approx). High-mids are between 2KHz and 4KHz. This is where the magic happens. Mids are very important for a natural presentation of sound. Especially voices and vocals fall within this part and headphones with an unnatural midrange may sound “off” or vocals sound “distant”. If the mids are too emphasized, the headphone sounds honky, hollow and telephone-like.

Highs or Treble

Treble refers to tones whose frequency or range is at the higher end of human hearing. In music this corresponds to "high notes". ... Examples of treble sounds are guitar tones, piccolos, etc.Treble means the highest part in a composition that has three parts which came from the Latin “triplus.”
High frequencies. Turning them up typically adds “air” to the sound. If turned up too far, the piercing sounds can be painful for your ears.

High frequencies don’t travel as far as low frequencies. This is why you mostly hear the bass from a far away concert or from the party next door (bass can travel through walls).

Samsung India Says Sold 1 Million Tizen-Based Z1 Smartphones Since Launch

Image
After making a poor first impression in India since its launch in January, the Samsung Z1 seems to be doing reasonably well. Samsung India Electronics on Tuesday announced that it has sold a 'record' 1 million units of the Tizen-powered smartphone in the country. The company added it managed to achieve this milestone in less than six months since the launch. Samsung Z1 is the company's first smartphone to run on its Tizen operating system. The company has previously used the operating system on its Gear smartwatches, and televisions.

Xiaomi vs Micromax: A tale of two smartphone brands

Image
The smartphone market is one of India’s fastest-growing business sector, and an increasing number of consumer electronics brands want a slice of the action. A number of players, both domestic and foreign, have entered this market in recent years with varying degrees of success. There’s no denying that the arrival of Chinese smartphone makers in particular has had a huge impact on domestic brands like Micromax and Intex. Companies that once dominated in terms of market share are now struggling to retain a foothold in this increasingly crowded space. To get a clear idea of how Chinese manufacturers have impacted the Indian smartphone industry, we have compared the market records of leading players from both nations: Xiaomi from China and Micromax from India. According to market research firm IDC, the Redmi Note 4 by Xiaomi was the highest-selling smartphone by volume in the first quarter of 2017, shipping 1.8 million units. It toppled South Korean giant Samsu...

HTC Desire 826 vs HTC Desire EYE: first look

Image
HTC did what it should have a long time ago, and moved its 4 MP UltraPixel snapper at the front, placing a more orthodox 13 MP camera at the rear of the newly-announced Desire 826 . We just took it for a spin, comparing it with HTC's original idea for a selfie-oriented handset, the Desire Eye, and found quite a few differences. Design The phones sport a largely similar design concept, with matte plastic unibodies that are very comfortable to hold, and rounded corners with a colored separation rim around the sides. The Desire 826 is, naturally, the larger, harder to handle phone, due to the increased screen diagonal, but the difference is not that crummy, since both are pretty big phones anyway, thanks to the embedded BoomSound stereo speakers at the front, requiring that you work them with both hands pretty often. The Desire 826 is notably heavier than the Eye, though. Display With a 5.5" 1080p display, the Desire 826 returns a slightly low...
