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

Association (ASHA), the national professional, scientific and credentialing

pathologists, and speech, language and hearing scientists.

For information on protection against noise-induced hearing loss, call the

ASHA Action Center (800-638-8255), Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m.

to 5 p.m. To find an audiologist in your area, visit www.asha.org/findpro.

hearing and how to teach them about safe listening at
