iPods make Ear buzzing

Music one way booster spirit, music makes life more alive, but what happens when music makes the ears buzzing? Certainly not the music that makes ears 'ngungung', but we listen to the behavior that makes listening to music so no longer sharp.

Researchers in Australia found about a quarter of users iPods have a hearing loss. iPods users mania or other portable music players are often at risk of increased ear buzzing (tinnitus) or other hearing problems, this tendency is more often found in iPods users crazy turn the volume of his iPods.

National Acoustic Laboratories in Sydney asked the respondents listened to music with a volume comparable to motors powered device (ie: drilling machine). The researchers found that the level of buzzing (tinnitus) will increase because the hearing could not adopt the normal practice of their ears.

The study noted about 25 percent of respondents tend to listen to iPods or other portable music in the capacity of 'noisy' is proportional to the noise level at noise lawn mower or motorcycle engine device, with an average intensity above 85 decibels.

In its normal size, people with normal hearing his audiogram lies between 0 to 20 decibels, more than 30 decibels with a range of up to 100 decibels means that there is hearing loss.

The size of the intensity recorded in normal hearing audiogram form, which audigram located between 30 to 40 decibels, including light interference. From 40 to 60 decibels, including the scale was. Between 60 and 90 decibels is heavy. As an illustration, the sound of the street the same drill with the 100 decibels. Aircraft engine 120 decibels. A quiet room was approximately 30 to 40 decibels.

"Enjoy the disco music, attend a dance, working in a factory, listening to music while driving or just listening to music in the room, if you interfere with any ear condition that has included the category 'noise'," said Professor Harvey Dillon, initiating research.

"It is better to listen to music in the normal frequency, the disorder may not appear in the near future but did not close the possibility of triggering a more severe disruption next few years," added Prof. Dillon
