Query: Q7. What headphone volume is safe?
Context: Knowing what volume level is considered safe for headphones benefits you with a risk-free listening experience. As per the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), a safe level for headphones is 50 to 60% of the maximum volume. It implies that if your headphones can generate a volume of 100 dB, then you can listen to music at 60 dB or less. Consequently, it lets you hear the music better without damaging your hearing experience.  Note that exposure to sound levels over 85 dB can cause potential ear damage if used constantly for more than two hours. Exposure to sound levels in the range of 105 to 110 dB can cause damage within five minutes. However, sound output below 70 dB will mostly not cause any substantial damage to the ears. Certain people are more sensitive to sound and may be more vulnerable to hearing damage at higher sound levels.
