SafeSound

With the by-packed earphones, SafeSound allows you to listen to music in a safe way. When you listen to music through the earphones, the sound pressure on your ears is estimated¹ based on the electrical characteristics of the player and earphones. Then, the estimate is compared against the reference levels² of sound pressure.As a result, icons of different colors can be displayed to indicate status of sound pressure and the levels of risks to hearing damage.

Tip

¹The methodology is based on European norm (50332-1/2).

²The reference levels come from the minimum requirement for health and safety that the European directive 2003/10/EC provides for the noises exposed to individuals.
