Hearing Protection

Protect Your Hearing from Harmful Noise

Exposure to loud sounds is a part of everyday life, but taking steps to protect your hearing can make a lasting difference. Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) affects millions of adults across the United States, yet many cases can be prevented with the right precautions and hearing protection.

When Does Noise Become Harmful?

Many common activities and environments can expose your ears to damaging sound levels. Hearing damage isn’t determined by volume alone—the length of time you’re exposed to loud noise is just as important. The examples below, based on guidance from the CDC, illustrate how everyday sounds can contribute to permanent hearing loss when proper protection isn’t used.

SoundGear Phantom is the world’s first—and still most popular—custom, rechargeable, and Bluetooth® compatible hearing aid and protection device.

Offering an unrivaled custom fit, Phantom lets you hear environmental sounds and conversations more clearly while offering protection from both sudden and continuous loud sounds.

Its comfortable fit, streaming capabilities and 23 hours of battery life mean you can wear it all activity long, without taking it in and out when you answer the phone, have a conversation or take a short break.

In addition to being a hearing protection device, the SoundGear Phantom is an FDA-listed prescription hearing aid and may be fitted to compensate for hearing loss, consistent with the product’s labeling and applicable law.
