Patent attributes
There are provided headphones and a speaker unit having proper acoustic properties and exhibiting excellent reproduced sound quality even in the case of providing air holes at a damping member. The headphones include a speaker unit having a diaphragm and a frame supporting an outer peripheral portion of the diaphragm, a housing configured to house the speaker unit, and a damping member made of a material exhibiting air permeability and attached to cover an opening of the frame through which a sound wave emitted from the diaphragm passes and/or an opening of the housing. The damping member has one or more air holes formed by removal of the material forming the damping member. A secondary damping member is attached to an annular edge portion defining each air hole, thereby reducing vibration of the edge portion.
