Higher volumes or longer durations can damage your hearing. At higher
volumes, the duration must be shortened in order to prevent hearing
damage. The following are sure signs that you have been subjected to
excessive noise for too long a time:
You can hear ringing or whistling sounds in your ears.
You have the impression (even for a short time only) that you can no
