Caution:
Avoid potential hearing
loss.
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 other potential
hearing problems varies.
The amount of sound produced
by a portable audio device
varies depending on the nature
of the sound, the device,
