Many technology users spend extended periods wearing headphones throughout their day which could have negative effects on their hearing, which is something the Westone 'dbTrack' earphones seek to prevent. The headphones work by being worn and used like any other wired set of audio equipment, but will continuously track your audio exposure to ensure you aren't listening at high volumes for too long. This makes them a perfect solution for those worried about their hearing when listening to music at work or when commuting for extended periods.
The Westone 'dbTrack' earphones are ideal for users of all ages and can be used with the accompanying app to set the audio parameters in place to keep you in total control. The app will also send you notifications to let you know when you should turn down the volume to prevent unnecessary hearing damage.
