Puro Sound Labs Headphones for Kids

My two teenage boys seem to always have their earbuds in at all times. I cringe when I can hear the music when they are in their ears. I often wonder if they are listening to the music too loud or if are they using them as an excuse to ignore me. My daughter, who is nine, also often uses headphones. She, however, prefers the over-the-head headphones. It has been hard to find her a good pair that last. We recently had the opportunity to review a pair of  Puro Sound Labs Headphones which are made for children with the intent to get their ears safe and healthy.

Did you know that prolonged exposure to sounds over 85 dB can contribute to hearing loss?

“As many as 16 percent of teens (ages 12 to 19) have reported some hearing loss that could have caused by loud noise.”  – NIDCD (National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders)

Safe For Children’s Ears

I’m sure you don’t want your children exposed to such loud levels. Puro Sound has taken the guesswork out of wondering if your child’s headphones are below the recommended level

Puro Kids headphones are safe for a child’s hearing and sound terrific. They deliver studio-grade sound and protect our children’s hearing without compromising their listening experience. It’s a simple formula: block out 82% of the background noise (comparable to some of the best active noise canceling headphones on the market); limit volume to 85 dB (maximum safe listening level); and fine-tune sound quality with our patent-pending Puro Balanced Response® curve. Result? An amazing listening experience with clear, crisp vocals and full, dynamic bass. Even though the volume is limited to safe levels, these headphones don’t feel limiting at all.

Comfortability of Puro Sound Lab Headphones

I switched out Honey’s old pair of headphones with the new headphones from Puro Sound Labs and asked her to use them for a week to tell me what she thought. The first thing we noticed is that this pair of headphones fit her better than any previous pair. In fact, being made especially for children they did not fit my teenage son, or he just has a big head, whichever way you want to look at it.  She said they were very comfortable and they were lighter than her old pair.

Puro Sound Labs Headphones Review

After using them for a week here were her thoughts:

• They were much more comfortable
• Even though she could still hear some background noise it was much less than the older pair
• The sound quality was better than the older pair
• She loved that they were wireless

As mentioned these headphones can be both wireless and non-wireless. Since she often uses them when she is eating watching videos, or lying down having no wires has become an advantage. She mentioned the other day that now just like her brother she can get up and move and still hear her music with her headphones on. As you can see I find her with her headphones on often.

I love that Puro Sound Labs is more than just a company selling products. They take the health of your child’s ear seriously. They have partnered with the Hearing Health Foundation and will be donating a portion of the sales of all products to HHF during 2015. Beyond that, we will be finding other ways to help HHF develop its Safe and Sound program.
