Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an open binaural earphone including a housing, at least one low-frequency speaker, and at least one high-frequency speaker. The housing may be placed on at least one of a head or an ear of a user and not blocking a user's ear canal, and configured to accommodate the at least one low-frequency speaker and the at least one high-frequency speaker. The at least one low-frequency speaker may be configured to output sounds within a first frequency range from at least two first sound guiding holes through at least two first guiding tubes. The at least one high-frequency speaker may be configured to output sounds within a second frequency range from at least two second sound guiding holes through at least two second guiding tubes. The second frequency range may include one or more frequencies higher than one or more frequencies in the first frequency range.
