3.Like any speakers, overdriving
headphones may cause damage to both the headphones and your ears. Please listen at moderate levels.
4.WARNING: Long term exposure to loud music or other sounds in headphones may cause hearing damage. It is best to avoid extreme volume levels when using headphones, especially for extended periods. Over time, your ears adapt to the volume level, so a level that may not cause initial discomfort might still damage your hearing.
