When it comes to hi-fi innovations in portable music players, Apple is the name which immediately strikes in our mind. A few days back, most of the newspapers were criticizing the iPods and other walkman players. According to media these portable music players can make the listener deaf if operated at a high volume for a very long time.

Well that was also quite practical and it immediately lead to the decrease in the sales of Apple iPods. Keeping in mind this issue, Apple has made its iPods intelligent enough in order to safeguard your listening power. New iPods come with a unique feature called automatic volume adjuster. Now, whenever the listener listens to the music at a high volume, the iPod will gradually start to decrease it to a comfortable and safer level after sometime. In this way your iPod, such as the advanced Apple iPod touch 16 GB, will keep an automated check on your ear’s health. According to the research, a volume at 70 decibels or less is safe for normal human beings but the Apple iPod operates at 100 decibels at its top volume. Automatic volume adjuster decreases the volume up to at a level slightly less than 70 decibels. Thus, there is no need to worry about your ears. Just celebrate the spirit of music freely.
