tapes, have very little noise.
If the volume is adjusted according to your
usual expectations of noise, you may dam-
age your hearing due to the high volume.

Concern for others when listen-
ing to MiniDiscs
If you are enjoying listening to music, the
sound escaping from your earphones may
annoy people around you.
If you are using the unit in particularly
crowded places (such as on trains or
buses), reduce the volume to avoid annoy-
ing people around you.
