[BEST 10 list ] USE EARPHONES CAREFULLY- PREVENT HEARING LOSSES

Many people experience hearing loss caused by repeated exposure to loud noises or hearing loud music. And now, apart from noisy occupations, concerts and sporting events, public health officials are concerned about one other big culprit: headphones. You can still listen to music through your beloved headphones, but take some precautions to preserve your hearing e.g- choose good earphones.

As far as the SoundGuys community is concerned, we’re best off refraining from those tempting volume increases as a way of shutting the world out. Those people who often crank the volume might want to think about noise cancelling headphones. Yes, good ones are expensive, but if you’re financially ready to swing it, the value is worth safeguarding your health.


(Signs of hearing loss)warning signs and symptoms as detailed by the CDC-

  • -Difficulty registering high-frequency sounds like doorbells, telephone rings, and alarms
  • -Difficulty understanding conversations when in a loud environment. This sign relates back to the first one: as speech can be difficult to distinguish from background noise
  • -Difficulty understanding speech over the phone.
  • -Difficulty distinguishing consonants.
  • -Asking others to speak slowly and clearly.
  • -Asking others to repeat what was said or say something louder.
  • -Increasing the volume during media playback on the TV or through your headphones.
  • -Ringing in the ears.
  • -Hypersensitivity to specific sounds, particularly to loud noises.

How to prevent hearing loss[Use noise-canceling headphones (earphones)]

These headphones block out external sound, letting you enjoy your music or videos at a lower volume without distraction and serves as an excellent choice for children.
