FAQ: Professional Ear Defenders

Can I wear glasses with headphones?

Yes, but the thick arms of the glasses can create a gap in the headphone pad, reducing sound attenuation by 2-5 dB. We recommend glasses with thin, flat temples.

How do I clean the headphones?

Clean the pads (the part in contact with the skin) regularly with warm water and mild soap. Do not immerse the entire cap in water. Bearings should be replaced every 6 months or when they become stiff/cracked.

Do electronic headphones isolate from loud noises?

Yes, they instantly block impulsive noises (such as gunshots or presses) above 82 dB, but amplify low sounds (voices, alarms) allowing you to converse without removing the DPI.
