| N05909 HEAPHONE / OWNER’S MANUALEAR HEALTH |
|
|
| EAR HEALTH |
|
|
| Our ability to hear is amazing. The Mark Levinson team wishes you to treat your ears like the precious tools they are so they will |
| continue to provide you a lifetime of incredible sonic experiences. |
|
|
| In general, do not listen “too loud or for too long,” and be attentive to your own ears. Ringing, discomfort, or sensitivity to high |
| frequencies and treble may be a signal from your ears that you are pushing them to their limits and causing irreparable damage. |
|
|
| As a general practice, find what seems to be your preferred listening level and then adjust the volume down another 10% or |
| more. Surprisingly, your ears will attune to a slightly lower volume over time, and what seems quiet at first can be perfect for |
| longer listening periods. |
