subject: Effective Yet Simple Ways to Protect Your Ears from Hearing Loss [print this page] For anyone who enjoys listening to music all of the time, taking a break after a couple of hours is an important yet easy way to protect one's ears. After all, it's fine to enjoy a record at a loud volume for an hour or so, but after that, turning off the noise entirely is important so as to not cause damage. Likewise, those who are using headphones to listen to music on the go should be sure to keep the volume level down, and to not try to drown out the noise of the city. It's simply not possible to enjoy music in a noisy subway car, so don't try to overcompensate for normal noises of the city just to listen to a couple of songs. Chances are, all that listening to music in this kind of environment is doing is increasing the likelihood of hearing loss, and there's nothing fun about blaring music at such a high volume that the sound quality is compromised.
