what headphones are you using? what loud-speakers? how dubious is the quality of the audio files? |

Sometimes songs sound SOOOOO much different. Sometimes for the worse, rarely for the better. This happens with every song ESPACIALLY et by Katy Perry. the voice sounds different, the music sounds different, the ambience is off the charts different. |

actually, my bro said they broke -.- |

You need to take them out of your mouth. |
|
being broken also detracts from the overall sound quality. |
|
Sounds like you either have some shit speakers or shit headphones. Music is nearly always better through loudspeakers, unless you have really high quality headphones. |

"Different" doesn't always mean worse. Most of the time, the music I hear in headphones sounds just as good, if not better than through speakers. |

Naw, he probably just has low-fi headphones. With really poor ones you won't be able to hear various sounds that are otherwise clear, some stuff will come to the forefront that shouldn't, and basically all the timbres will be fucked. |

Maybe it is the headphones. I don't find that true. Music will sound a bit different through headphones, but not that much. |
|
I prefer listening to music through headphones, they make it easier to notice each layer of the instrumental. A lot of the music I listen to makes use of heavy synths and bass so the subwoofer I use with my computer speakers drowns out some of the more subtle parts of the music. It probably wouldn't sound so different if I knew how to turn that down. |

Through headphones we get the full acoustic effect of an oval shaped chamber. |

About headphones vs loudspeakers, it is of course personal preference, but it also depends on what music you listen to. Electronic will usually be better through headphones, because you can hear all the subtle details that are often present in electronic, but with rock, metal and similar/sub genres, a good setup of loudspeakers is usually better. Personally I like loudspeakers, because it's more comfortable. |

I think the song Rude Boy by Rihanna sounds So different on head phones... |
|
ill listen to it with my non-broken headphones. |

Completely different acoustics basically. A lot more of the sound energy goes into your ear than when listening in a room using loudspeakers, so there'll be less reverberation. Headphones will usually block at least some background and ambient noise, though in a noisy environment the headphone output itself can be masked. Different speakers have different outputs at different frequencies, especially low and high pitches. It's easier to tell differences between the left and right audio channels when listening to headphones. |
