Headphones can cause hearing loss ability just the same way other loud noises do, so this post is all about preventing hearing loss ability caused by headphones.
With all the new cool headphone like the JBL, Bose wireless headphones, beats wireless headphones, and AirPods coming to the market, it’s so hard to pick the one which will not have negative effects on your hearing.
Don’t get me wrong the above-mentioned headphones don’t spoil your ability to hear correctly. But if not used correctly it can/may damage your hearing ability
Ways to prevent hearing loss ability when using headphones
- Turning ON the Reduce loud sound on your iPhone.
- Keeping the volume not too loud (below 50% is great)
- Buying a headphone with noise canceling.
- Aways have a listening break
How to turn On reduce loud sound on your iPhone
Turn the “reduce loud sound” ON from your iPhone and adjust the decibels to your choice.
You can locate it here:
Settings >> sounds >> headphone safety >> reduce loud sound
With the reduce loud sound turned ON, your headphone plays sound on the decibel you set, and you don’t have to adjust the volume so it doesn’t feel like it’s (headphone) shouting at you.
Don’t get me wrong but a 60% volume high could be loud for some and low for some.
The storyline here is to get a balance via the sound of your headphone so it doesn’t feel like it’s sounding too loud or low.
And to do so the reducing loud sound decibel will help.
