Headphones

These can be termed mini loudspeakers which are worn around a head by the user. They perform the task of converting an electrical signal into a corresponding audio signal. Headphones can be connected to a source device using a wire or using wireless technologies such as Bluetooth, FM radio, etc. Headphones typically keep the speakers intact with the help of a band over the upper part of the head. Whereas the earbuds (earphones)are very tiny and hence can be directly plugged into the ear of the user. Some other headphones that are available in the modern-day market are sports and fitness headphones, Noise-canceling headphones, DJ/professional headphones, and premium headphones.

Headset

When a microphone is provided along with the headphone then it becomes a headset. These can be used in aviation, telephone, playing games on the personal computer, etc. In a headset, the microphone can be used externally or it can be a part of the earpiece. The telephone headset is preferred by those who require constant telephonic conversation. Using headphones or even headsets at extremely high volume can cause hearing impairment, so one should use them within low volume range only.

Microphone

An instrument that is responsible for converting an audio signal into an electrical signal is termed a microphone. The variety of microphones available is laser microphones, ribbon microphones, dynamic microphones, condenser microphones, carbon microphones, crystal microphones, liquid microphones, etc. The microphone can be unidirectional (sounds from only one direction can be detected), omnidirectional( detection of sound is not confined by the directions), and bidirectional (sound can be detected equally from the front as well as back). The different microphones respond differently to the sounds since they differ in their design and construction.

Amplifiers

So it is undoubtedly a must-have item for any sort of audio system, home theatre system, etc. Nowadays Bluetooth stereo amplifiers, gaming audio amplifiers, and wireless home audio amplifiers are being widely used.
