We recommend using low impedance in-ear headphones. To ensure
optimum sound, the in-ear headphones should be anatomically suited
to your individual ear shape.

18 Attention! High Volume!
This is a professional transmission system. Commercial use is subject to
the rules and regulations of the trade association responsible. Sennheiser,
as the manufacturer, is therefore obliged to expressly point out possible
health risks arising from use.
This system is capable of producing sound pressure exceeding 85 dB(A).
85 dB(A) is the sound pressure corresponding to the maximum
permissible volume which is by law (in some countries) allowed to
affect your hearing for the duration of a working day. It is used as a
basis according to the specifications of industrial medicine. Higher
volumes or longer durations can damage your hearing.
At higher volumes, the duration must be shortened in order to prevent
damage. The following simple formula applies:
Double the volume = half the duration
An increase of 3 dB corresponds to doubling the volume; you can thus
go by the following table:
Maximum duration at a sound pressure of:
8 hours 85 dB
4 hours 88 dB
2 hours 91 dB
1 hour 94 dB
30 minutes 97 dB
15 minutes 100 dB
8 minutes 103 dB
4 minutes 106 dB
2 minutes 109 dB
1 minute 112 dB
Pain threshold 120 dB
The following are sure signs that you have been subjected to excessive noise
for too long a time:

You can hear ringing or whistling sounds in your ears.

You have the impression (even for a short time only) that
you can no longer hear high notes.

After using this system, your hearing is impaired for a short
time.
In all of the above cases, you should consult a specialist or at least have
your hearing tested.
Ear damage builds up gradually. Once the initial symptoms have died
down, you no longer perceive acute changes. In the long term, however,
the repeated effects of loud noises can cause severe hearing impairment
or even deafness.
