I use a Sony 1000XM3 at 16% volume for about 2 hours a day with ANC off. Will I go deaf if do that everyday? I have never used headphones before this in my life. I am in my teens. My parents say that I will go deaf.

    16% is loud enough for me. I feel it is too much past that. Also they are very loud headphones and at 100% volume you can very much hear sounds from the headphones without wearing them

      I listen to 16% volume for hours. It’s fine. When I measured it, it was about 45-50dB. That’s even quieter than me talking and measuring at arms length.
