JiaWeiHua is a professional China headphone manufacturer, offers custom anc headphones and custom TWS headphones. For music lovers, after purchasing headphones, whether at home or at work, they like to wear headphones for listening to music, but often wearing headphones will not Our hearing is harmful. So, what harm does wearing headphones do to hearing?

 

A random survey conducted by researchers from Purdue University in the United States shows that with the popularity of earphones, the number of people with minor noise-induced hearing impairment is increasing year by year.

 

Wearing headphones for a long time, the sound waves resonate in a confined space, which will cause undesirable stimuli to the inner ear and easily cause damage to the hair cells. Make an image metaphor: When we are enjoying music above 100 decibels, hair cells are like grass that is constantly being crushed by a road roller, slowly dying. Many people like to listen to music in the subway, bus, or in a noisy environment, so they naturally turn the headset volume up very loudly. In a study, the researchers found that when the ambient volume reached 65 decibels, subjects would choose to increase the volume of the headset to 82 decibels to get better results. When the ambient volume is higher, this number may also be higher. If things go on like this, even in a quiet room, headset users will still set the volume to a standard seal that far exceeds actual needs. If things go on like this, hearing will be damaged.

 

Therefore, when the surrounding environment is noisy and it is difficult to hear clearly when the volume is turned on higher, you should turn off the music decisively. If you have to listen to music in such a high-decibel environment, JiaWeiHua recommends that you may wish to switch to in-ear, earbuds, or headphones that have a better shielding effect on external noise.
