We Want You Listening For A Lifetime

Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of enjoyment. Since hearing damage from loud

noise is often undetectable until it is too late,

THIEL

and the Electronics Industries Manufacturers Association

recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise. Depending on room size and amplifier power, some

home audio systems can reach sound pressure levels in excess of 95 decibels with peaks of over a 105 decibels. For

your protection, the list below identifies sound levels for various noises.
