Headphones are transforming into multi-functional gadgets. Need for personalized listening experience, advancement in technology, manufacturing, and portable consumer electronic devices is fueling growth of the global premium headphones market. Escalating urban population across the globe, characterized by urban upper class and high net worth individuals has led to strong demand for premium headphones.
Market Dynamics
The launch of innovative premium headphones with transformation in the appearance, sound delivery, portability, and connectivity of products is fueling the demand for premium headphones. Premium Headphones delivering extra capabilities such as noise-cancellation and noise-isolation are likely to increase the multi-functionality of these devices, which will ultimately boost growth of this market. For instance, in August 2018, Sony Corporation unveiled WH-1000XM3, the newest addition to the 1000X series of wireless, noise-cancelling headphones at IFA consumer electronics show in Berlin, Germany. Furthermore, technological advancements such as Bluetooth, IR (infrared) technology, and Wi-Fi connectivity are enabling vendors to attract new consumers. The integration of products with smart features such as fitness tracker wearables, and speech modulation devices will contribute to the development of the global premium headphones market. For instance, in July 2018, JBL, a brand of Harman International Industries, Inc., introduced training-proof wireless headphones built exclusively for gym, featuring UA SuperVent fabric ear cushions and JBL TalkThru technology. Moreover, the market is currently witnessing the incorporation of newer technologies such as gesture recognition and control, active head tracking, 3D surround sound delivery, and onboard storage in over-ear. Furthermore, the development of smart hearables that deliver outstanding sound along with other features such as biometric monitoring, augmented hearing, and language translation will boost the global premium headphone market growth.
Presence of counterfeit products is expected to hamper the market growth to a significant extent. Though, the materials used in manufacturing, quality of sound, and durability of pirated products is inferior to those offered by major premium headphones the demand for pirated products will restrain growth of this market. Moreover, the global premium headphones market is targeted only to specific consumers from high income segment, which restraints growth of the market and reduces the total addressable market of premium headphones over the forecast period.
