Yes, it is. And you should also think about the earphones’ sound signature before making a purchase.
This feature of your headphones creates a sonic “profile” by boosting or cutting certain frequencies. Sound signatures come in a wide variety, and there is no hard and fast rule about which one you should choose; it all comes down to personal taste.
Choose earbuds with a neutral or flat sound profile, for instance, if you wish to hear every instrument clearly. Yet, if you enjoy bopping along to the beat, you might enjoy the bass-heavy tracks.
