Frequently Asked Questions
The PH-88 prioritizes clarity and durability over audiophile-grade fidelity; it's very good for its purpose, but not as refined as their premium models.
The lightweight construction helps, but prolonged use might still cause some ear fatigue depending on individual sensitivity and ambient noise levels.
You’ll need an amplifier with a decent output wattage – typically at least 100mW – to achieve optimal volume and clarity; a weak amp will sound thin and quiet.
