CNET editors' buying advice

We have not reviewed this product but here is CNET's buying advice on Headphones. This content was chosen based on the features included with this model of headphone.

Headphones and your Personal Health

Headphones are a cultural norm - no matter where you are, people utilizing them while exercising, commuting, studying or working.

Advances in technology have increased battery life and storage capacity resulting in users listening with headphones at loud decibels for prolonged periods of time. Headphone users' listening habits have audiologists alarmed. Younger people are exhibiting hearing loss normally found in older adults.

Prevention is essential to protecting your hearing. Below are five tips that can potentially reduce hearing loss:

Decrease the volume.

Utilize the volume limiter on your portable device (if applicable).

Take five - give your ears a time out frequently.

Never use your headphones to drown out background noise such as subway or city traffic.

Invest in sound-isolating or noise-canceling headphones.
