Furthermore, the left channel positive terminal 621 is electrically connected to the cross-feed loudspeaker 40a through the electrical connector 50a. The left channel negative terminal 622 is connected to the cross-feed loudspeaker 40a through the electrical connector 50a. The right channel positive terminal 623 is connected to the low vocal range loudspeaker 20a and the high vocal range loudspeaker 30a through the electrical connector 50a. The right channel negative terminal 624 is connected to the low vocal range loudspeaker 20a and the high vocal range loudspeaker 30a through the electrical connector 50a.

As shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, in this embodiment, the left channel positive terminal 631 and the left channel negative terminal 632 of the main audio source terminal 63 are electrically connected to the low vocal range loudspeaker 20 and the high vocal range loudspeaker 30 of the headphone 1 and the cross-feed loudspeaker 40a of the headphone 1a. In addition, the right channel positive terminal 633 and the right channel negative terminal 634 of the main audio source terminal 63 are electrically connected to the low vocal range loudspeaker 20a and the high vocal range loudspeaker 30a of the headphone 1a and the cross-feed loudspeaker 40 of the headphone 1. Therefore, the audio signal of the audio cable 60 plugged into or connected to the headphone 1 is also transmitted to the cross-feed loudspeaker 40a of the headphone 1a, and the audio signal of the audio cable 60 plugged into or connected to the headphone 1a is also transmitted to the cross-feed loudspeaker 40 of the headphone 1. Consequently, both the left ear and the right ear of the user can receive the sounds of the right and left channels due to the configuration of the cross-feed loudspeaker 40, 40a when the user wears the headphone device of the invention.

Moreover, because the audio signals of the left channel and the right channel are transmitted to the headphone 1 and the headphone 1a at the same time by the audio cable 60, there is no need to place the wire in a head-worn mechanism (not shown in the figures) of a headset. In addition, the audio source terminal 61 of the audio cable 60 can be plugged into or connected to the electrical connector 50a of the headphone 1a, and the audio source terminal 62 can be plugged into or connected to the electrical connector 50 of the headphone 1, and this configuration does not result in a defect that causes the headphone 1 and the headphone 1a to not transmit the audio.

While the invention has been described by way of example and in terms of preferred embodiment, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited thereto. Those who are skilled in this technology can still make various alterations and modifications without departing from the scope and spirit of this invention. Therefore, the scope of the present invention shall be defined and protected by the following claims and their equivalents.
