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.
