Enjoy your music responsibly. According to the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, listening to headphones at high volumes for extended periods of time can directly result in lifelong hearing loss. We at V-MODA are dedicated to providing an enjoyable listening experience, but we also care greatly about your personal health and safety. We recommend that you listen to your headphones at comfortable volume levels for reasonable periods of time.
How to enjoy your music responsibly.
- Turn down the volume. A good point of reference is half volume.
- Limit listening time. Give your hearing a “time out.”
The Occupational Safety Health Administration has developed the following noise exposure chart to help determine what levels and lengths of listening are safe.
