Advantages of the 4.4mm 5-pole plug

The 4.4mm 5-pole plug is a terminal for balanced connections, which has become increasingly popular in headphones in recent years.

The main features include:

1. Improved sound quality

Balanced connections are less susceptible to noise than standard unbalanced connections, delivering clearer, more powerful sound.

The effect can be felt even more clearly when combined with a high-quality, high-output headphone amplifier.

2. High compatibility

The 4.4mm 5-pole plug is standardized by the JEITA (Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association), so it is compatible with equipment from a variety of manufacturers.

Some portable audio players and headphone amplifiers are equipped with both a 4.4 mm 5-pole jack and a 3.5 mm 3-pole jack, making them compatible with a wide range of devices.

3. Robustness

The 4.4mm 5-pole plug is larger and more robust than the 3.5mm 3-pole plug.

One advantage is that it is less likely to be damaged even when used in applications where the cable is frequently plugged in and removed.

4. Future Prospects

In recent years, many audio manufacturers have adopted the 4.4mm 5-pole plug, and it is expected that this type will continue to spread in the future.

When buying new headphones or amplifiers, you can rest assured knowing there is less need to worry about compatibility.

Other The 4.4mm 5-pole plug is primarily used in portable audio devices, but is increasingly being used in stationary headphone amplifiers as well.
