Listening for a Lifetime
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is
only the start of your musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how
you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. This
manufacturer, the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA)® and the
American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) want you to get
the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level; a level that
lets the sound come through clearly without annoying blaring or distortion
and, most importantly, without damaging your sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to
higher volumes of sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud
and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment
at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
TO ESTABLISH A SAFE LEVEL:
Set your volume control to the lowest level where you can hear the
music comfortably and clearly. Prolonged exposure to anything over 85
decibels can cause gradual hearing loss.
Once you have established a sound level where you can hear the
audio comfortably, clearly and without distortion, set the dial and leave
it there.
See if your music player has a volume limiter that allows you to set a
safe listening level by establishing a maximum volume level on your
player. This is a great solution for parents to ensure their children listen
at a safe level.
Limit listening time to give your hearing “quiet breaks.”
BE SURE TO OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING GUIDELINES WHEN
WEARING YOUR HEADPHONES OR EARBUDS:
Do not turn up the volume so high that you can’t hear sounds around
you.
Do not use headphones or earbuds while operating a motorized
vehicle; it may create a traffic hazard and is illegal in many areas.
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide years of fun and
enjoyment.
Since hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too
late, this manufacturer, CEA and ASHA recommend that you avoid
prolonged exposure to excessive noise. The following list of sound levels
is included for your information so that you can better protect your
hearing.
DECIBEL LEVEL EXAMPLES:
30 Whisper
40 Quiet room
50 Moderate rainfall
60 Normal conversation
70 Busy traffic, vacuum cleaner
80 Alarm clock
CONSTANT EXPOSURE TO THESE NOISES CAN BE
DANGEROUS:
90 Lawn mower, motorcycle
100 Chain saw
110 Rock concert
120 Jet plane takeoff
130 Jackhammer
140 Firecrackers
