Crescendo

11 January 2018


As a leading manufacturer of innovative hearing protection and sound management solutions Crescendo Hearing Protection is always excited with initiatives to create awareness to prevent hearing impairment. Especially amongst the younger generation, hearing loss and prevention deserves a lot more attention.

We are happy to be associated with the I Love My Ears campaign. This campaign started in 2014 to create more awareness amongst visitors but also professionals such as music festival organizers, artists and sound engineers. A great amount of music locations have joined the initiative and have agreed to not let sound levels exceed above 103 db (assuming an average of 15 minutes). All associated locations can be recognized with the I Love My Ears logo and sell hearing protection.

Why should you choose Crescendo Hearing Protection products?

Our background is music, and many famous musicians use our filter technology because these filters provide them true natural sound, only just a bit less loud. Crescendo is the only company testing every filter acoustically before they go out to you: 100% quality control, 100% guaranteed music enjoyment. Our products are specifically designed for all types of different musical situations, for general concert use or the Pro Series such as the DJ, GUITAR, DRUMMER and VOCALS earplugs, featuring flat attenuating filters preferred by professionals and music lovers. Hear the difference here.

Why Don’t People Wear Hearing Protection?

25 March 2016

“The sound experience isn’t as good” and “I can’t hear other people talk that well” are the most commonly used excuses not to wear hearing protection. These excuses are usually quite justified, because the closing or narrowing of the ear canal generally results in extreme damping of high frequencies and little damping of low frequencies. This is similar to what you hear when you approach a festival site; in the distance you can only hear the bass and as you walk closer to the stage, the high frequencies are more audible.

Fortunately, the last few years the world of hearing protection has not stood still and the offering of earplugs with filters has increased significantly. But lots of manufacturers assure a natural sound damping and can’t live up to this. With the greatest ease they promise a “flat attenuation”, so you can safely enjoy the music close to the stage and at the same time have a conversation with someone. But in fact, only a few manufacturers offer solutions with a real flat attenuation. These products never cost less than 10 euros in case of generic hearing protection. And in case of custom earmoulds the price will seldom be lower than 125 euros.

How can you be sure whether your hearing protection provides a flat and natural damping? Check the certification data that should be sold with every earplug. If you can’t find this data, something’s not all right and you probably have a product that is not certified as hearing protection. While checking the certification, you can see how much the filter dampens at all frequencies to 8kHz. Most earplugs dampen a lot of high frequencies and not a lot of low frequencies. In these cases, sounds will be unnatural and speech intelligibility will be bad. The more equal the damping at all frequencies, the more natural the sound experience. Would you like to know what such graphics look like? Just check out the picture with this article, the damping graphics of the Dynamic Ear Company’s DM filters; the Pro Music Series. You’ll probably never encounter a flatter damping than this… we wish you lots of listening fun!

Oil and Gas Industry Workers Likely to Suffer from Hearing Damage

1 March 2016

According to recent research by a Canadian union, workers in the oil en gas industry are twice as likely to suffer from hearing damage than workers in other industries.

In the study it was revealed that over a third already has some form of hearing loss. In other industries, the average is around 15 per cent.

It also appears that not all employees even try to protect themselves. Only 27 per cent of young workers regularly wear hearing protection, even less then older workers.

Because hearing damage is often permanent and cannot be undone, it’s very important to wear hearing protection. Dynamic Ear Company offers various products for the workplace.

You could for instance try the Crescendo Heavy Industry, specially developed for industrial use. The unique filters in the universal earplugs reduce noise by 25dB. This makes it safe to work up to eight ours in an environment with noise levels up to 110dB.

The Dynamic Ear Company earplugs are made of medical grade materials. This makes it easily possible to wear them for longer periods at a time.

At the moment, more often earmuffs and foams are being used in the industries. These are much less comfortable and, moreover, result in bad speech intelligibility.

De Dynamic Ear Company filters provide a flat noise damping through which one can understand each other better, while the sound of machines is being driven to the background.

André Dodde is behalve redacteur van Musicmaker fanatiek toetsenist waarbij geen
Philicorda hem te slecht en geen Hammond hem te goed is.

Crescendo gehoorbescherming

Wij muzikanten hebben meestal een haat-liefde-verhouding met gehoorbescherming. Je weet dat het belangrijk is als je je belangrijkste zintuig – je gehoor – wilt beschermen, maar je hebt niet geïnvesteerd in een dure versterker om hem vervolgens te horen alsof ie op tien meter afstand staat met een deken eroverheen. Goede oplossingen bestaan, maar zijn duur. Het Nederlandse merk Crescendo denkt dat het ook goedkoper kan.

Hearing Protection in Noisy Sports Stadiums

22 October 2013

It seems that young parents are at least protecting their children from high stadium noise levels. Most spectators and concert attendees are not as lucky as the son of New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees at the Super Bowl or Gweneth Paltrow’s daughter at the Live 8 concert. Most of us on our way to the ballgame are thinking hot dogs and beer and not about wearing earplugs, no matter the type.
