Here’s an fascinating fact: people who listen to music in their headphones too loudly can suffer from permanent hearing loss. Well, that’s not that fascinating and many people would agree with that statement. Here’s why it’s an fascinating fact: The reason people listen to music too loudly is not necessarily because they like loud music. Rather, it’s because the background sound is too loud and interferes with the music.

So what’s the solution? Music should be loved through headphones (remember, not everyone shares your musical tastes!)…that’s a given. But music doesn’t have to be loved at a massive volume. After all, the right enjoyment of music does not come from the volume but from the quality of the sound.

And how do you get sound quality? One of the ways is to reduce the outside sound you hear. This is done through noise cancelling headphones.

What are noise canceling headphones? The most common type is the kind that goes over your ear and completely encloses it in a shell. There’s soft padding around the sides so it conforms to your head. This type of shape is called circumaural, although you need to know that not all circumaural’s are noise cancelling headphones.

Aside from that shape, noise canceling headphones have another piece of technology that allows them to really eliminate the background sounds: they use special circuitry, padding insulation, and other technology inside the shell of the part that goes over your ear. This special circuitry works to kill noises from the outside as the sound waves are directed toward you.

The result? Place them on and the world goes silent. That will allow you to listen to fantastic music at a lower volume and delight in it more, while keeping others from having to listen to your unique musical tastes.

Because of the insulation and circuitry required to deaden background sounds, the head phones will naturally be larger in size than the small earbuds you use in your ears. So they may not always be appropriate for travel. If you’re cycling or riding on the bus, you need to hear the background sounds for safety or to know when your stop is. But, if you’re traveling by plane or you want to have a silent night in a hotel that seems too loud, the noise canceling headphones are just the thing you’ll need for absolute privacy.

If these types of cans are too expensive, you may want to consider circumaural headphones that are not noise cancelling. They’ll still dampen the noise. Or, if you find that they are too huge and bulky, you may want to bypass earbuds and instead buy canalbuds. Earbuds fit right at the end of your ear canal while canalbuds really go into your ear. They do a better job of deadening external sounds. These are often referred to as noise isolating or passive types of head phones.

“Headphones On” by Miranda Cosgrove, released as a standalone DLC single on 12/2/2008, and played by S1ckH4nds in the Xbox 360 version of Rock Band 2 on Expert Bass in Local Band Quickplay mode on 12/3/2008.

Final score was 137,617 with a 731 note streak and 100% of notes hit as a full combo for five gold stars. A surprisingly fun bassline, quite possibly the best one from the selection of free tracks for Rock Band.

Honestly, this song isn’t half terrible, especially for a Nickelodeon act. It’s free right now, but I’d have gladly paid money for this one.
