Earphones and Hearing Loss

Audiologists are finding more and more young people with hearing loss. A major cause of hearing loss is volume.

Very loud sounds can damage hearing, that's why shooters wear ear protection at the range. But hearing loss can also be caused by ongoing exposure to more common loud sounds, such as factory noise, lawnmowers, or loud music.

Earphones with stock ear tips (that don’t seal out noise) contribute to hearing loss when we turn the volume up to hear our phone calls and music over the noise around us. When this happens day after day, little bits of damage can add up to hearing loss - and hearing doesn’t come back once the damage is done.

Custom Ear Tips let you turn the volume DOWN by naturally blocking out surrounding noise. So you can be good to your ears - and enjoy increased fidelity and bass, even with the lower volume.
