Responsible Listening
Caution!: Avoid potential hearing loss.
Damage to hearing occurs when a person is exposed to loud sounds over time. The risk of hearing loss increases
as sound is played louder and for longer durations. Prolonged exposure to loud sounds (including music) is the
most common cause of preventable hearing loss. Some scientific research suggests that using portable audio
devices, such as portable music players and cellular telephones, at high volume settings for long durations may
lead to permanent noise-induced hearing loss. This includes the use of headphones (including headsets, earbuds,
and Bluetooth or other wireless devices). Exposure to very loud sound has also been associated in some studies
with tinnitus (a ringing in the ear), hypersensitivity to sound and distorted hearing.
Individual susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss and potential hearing problem varies. Additionally, the
amount of sound produced by a portable audio device varies depending on the nature of the sound, the device
settings, and the headphones that are used. As a result, there is no single volume setting that is appropriate for
everyone or for every combination of sound, settings and equipment.
You should follow some commonsense recommendations when using any portable audio device:
•
Set the volume in a quiet environment and select the lowest volume at which you can hear adequately.
