    just a note. you can have tinnitus without hearing damage as well. it can be triggered by stress or come and go at random for no reason. but the ones who have tinnitus are the ones very aware of how loud everything is. and as for me, coming from a person with tinnitus. do not risk it. it’s okay to be a party pooper and make your friends turn down the volume. its that vs a life of trying to mange tinnitus. tinnitus can be treated with therapy to the point where it’s past someone’s awareness.. but it’s VERY difficult. when it hit me i felt anxiety like i’ve never felt before, many people have killed themselves bc of it and if i’m being honest i could see why. i’m still working on it, i am better but it’s still always there. seriously, just be a lil more protective. caring for your health is cool, you’re just around unhealthy habits most likely.

    As someone who's been living with tinnitus for over 15 years (currently 31 years old) due to mostly loud music, going to festivals without wearing any hearing protection, I can't stress the importance of proper sound exposure enough. Once you have it, it doesn't go away. Now, I'm cautious about my sound exposure, but it's already too late.
    Hearing is a precious gift, so be safe with it.

    Two months ago, i was diagnosed with sudden hearing loss in my right ear. The doctos say other factors like stress play a big part in this but earphone use is also detrimental. I used them everyday outside and i can really understand what she said about subway stations. I am only 21 and I used to think that everyone else just uses their earphones so why cant i too? But now i know that age doesnt make any excuses. When you're healthy, don't take it for granted. There's so many beautiful sounds we have to listen to. We're yet to listen to.

      Because that "0 to 100" refers to the power output of the device your using. Decibels, in the other end, refer to loudness level, and there are more elements to it than the power... The impedance of the speaker(this means, how much power do you need to use for a speaker to reach a certain volume), the size of the speaker, their position, your position (it's not the same using speakers at 6-8ft from you, than using in-ear earphones at, what... 4-6cm from your ear drums?). That's why. (PS: I really hope this helped to you!) Have a nice day!

      My hearing is pretty decent. It's not amazing, and it's hard to make out stuff when people talk to me in crowded places, but it's pretty normal, I'd say. I doubt there are any deep problems with my hearing.

    I'm 23 and i currently have tinnitus due to a concert, it happened so fast, there was a loud sharp sound and i didn't cover my ears, seconds after i had this terrible ringing and after i got out all i was hearing was muffled sounds. I've done a lot of tests and fortunately (except for the tinnitus itself) i don't have any other damages like, for example a hearing nerve damage. Despite this i had this VERY loud ringing and hissing in my right ear (and a slight on in my left ear) for about a year, i had to wear earplugs almost anytime because every sound hurt my ears. It was like having the whole ocean blasting right in my ear with a loud ringing (almost like a drill) at the 3000Hz frequency. For the first few months i had trouble hearing, sleeping, talking (my own voice was too loud), going out.. the first time i went out to see a movie i had to bring earplugs with me. Many years have passed and fortunately the ringing has improved a lot, now i can do everything i did before (like going to concerts) but unfortunately i still have a subtle ringing in both my ears, it's like a torture. I miss the sound of silence at bed or at night. Despite that often my brain filters out the subtle ringing and this gives me some peace.. be freaking careful guys.

  • @Kteeep
    @Kteeep 6 лет назад +495

    Good video, but two points I stumbled over:
    1. Different headphones have different impedances. That means they play at a different volume when they receive the same signal. So the comparison might have been flawed unless you measured the volume output of the headphones instead of looking how loud your phone is set.
    2. You compared the subway station to your office with the term 'twice as loud'. The decibel scale is logarithmic which means that an increase of 10 db is perceived as double the loudness to the human ear.
    That's all, thank you and keep on creating good content.

      +10 db means 2x loudness, so 90 db is 2x as loud as 80db. Decibels are a logarithmic scale and can be confusing.

      @@EtherTheReal Nope he's exactly right. By going from 70dB to 80dB you double the intensity of the sound (with a gross simplification, basically you double the energy of the sound) just as much as going from 0dB to 10dB. This is because the scale is what we call logarithmic. If you wonder why we use that weird logarithmic nonsense, it's because it is somewhat similar to how our ears interpret volume.

    It’s important to note that all dB scales are actually not linear, but logarithmic. A 3dB increase is a doubling in power and we perceive an increase of about 10dB to be a doubling in volume. So a jump from say a 50dB SPL office environment to a 100dB SPL subway station is not actually a doubling in perceived loudness but a 5x increase.

      My friend sometimes forces me to raise to volume to like 90% on a laptop, which already amplifies the audio to ear-rape level at 50%. He says he feels the music much more, but as a person who uses FL studio and has created some music, I'd say that raising the volume doesn't help at all for me at recognising the instruments and stuff in the music.

      Ringging for a small amount of time... That's called tinnitus.
      What the other guy was talking about is different most electronics emit a constant sine tone and the tone is less noticeable when said device is doing something or turned off. The sound can be eliminated when there is no power running through the device. Many popular devices emit these high frequency sounds though it is getting less and less common as time goes on. Most devices are completely silent to humans producing sounds that make noise way outside of the frequency ranges we can hear...
      Though in my case there are strange sounds produced by equipment that I can hear and that show up as noise in the radio spectrum (far outside of all known animals hearing capabilities). This is unusual and chances are you cannot hear what I'm hearing. I also assume the original commentor wasn't referring to these kinds of noises.

      This may be a bit of a stretch on my part, but I feel that since we all think differently from one another, then that must mean different brain structure. The sounds we hear are what our brains perceive, mostly from the noises our ears capture. This could also come into account from the way our brains handle that noise. For some, their brain probably can’t handle such loud noises, and would instantly wither your ability to hear properly. For the more lucky folks, their brains can be susceptible to the loud sounds more often than usual, thus, they’ll be fine for a long while.
      TL;DR Our brains are different in handling noises.

      Agiver Reviga I was thinking the same thing. The volume is too loud in those theaters. But then again, you're only there for about 2 to 3 hours max and there isn't a constant noise because the movie has more quiet scenes sometimes and the action scenes don't really last throughout the entire movie. But, still, those speakers are pretty loud.

    Most people aren’t concerned about hearing loss thinking that they are going to be fine UNTIL the damage is done and the deed is completed. Please do not have that mindset. At 14 (few weeks ago) I used to listen to music all day on my headphones. Well not literally but you know what I’m saying. Then when I got tinnitus I refrained myself from listening to any music. It was not that bad easy to cope with but the fear of getting it worse and incessant overruled everything else. Thankfully after attempting to go to sleep to calm myself down a little, my tinnitus was only temporary and went away. I don’t want to harbor the thought of having a constant ringing in your ears 24/7. Sleeping wouldn’t be so comfortable anymore..

      the distorted music isn't a problem with the bass its just that people there turned up the bass on their speakers above the levels of what bass they can produce however if they had more high quality speakers that can make bass that deep it would sound amazing

    • @MLWJ1993
      @MLWJ1993 5 лет назад +2

    I got tinnitus from headphones listen to music and watching movies - now I have ringing in my ears 24/7 and it never stops you cannot cure this either most times its for life. Doctors cant deal with it or treat it to make it better its just goes worse if you expose yourself to more loud noise. I sold my headphones long ago and only using the stereo system I have and I have the ringing in my ears for almost a year now.

      doesn't mean you can't do things to help save your ears, maybe certain filtering out earplugs can help or a replacing old earpads (or headphones). but djs and muscians are notorious for suffering from hearing loss just because their constant exposure during producing and performing. regardless of gear

  • @agentnea
    @agentnea 6 лет назад +14

    the volume nob is not a measurement of how load ANY headphones are, it's just how much output energy is being given to your headphones, the loudness of the headphones in decibels has more to do with both the efficiency of the headphones and the impedance, you could have headphones like HD 600 and even if you had them on your phone with the volume all the way up I doubt you'd get to 60db, meanwhile some easier to drive headphones can even get to 110db on a phone. so it's very subjective and hard to see if your damaging your ears, is there any other way to notice if you are listening to something too loud?

But it’s just sad that actually 10% was literally too loud for my ears and suddenly I have to go louder to be able to even hear something…
