FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Sensaphonics makes hearing health more accessible for all with dB Check Pro price reduction in honor of its 40th anniversary
— Marking four decades of innovation, Sensaphonics makes safe listening practice more attainable with a new lower price point for its dB Check Pro sound level analyzer throughout 2025 —
Chicago, IL, December 5, 2024 – Sensaphonics, a leading designer and manufacturer of custom-fit in-ear monitors, earplugs and electronics designed to achieve safe, high-resolution audio in mission-critical applications, has announced new pricing on its revolutionary dB Check Pro sound level analyzer in honor of the company’s 40th anniversary. Thanks to recent advancements in streamlined manufacturing techniques, the dB Check Pro is now available at a new price of $399. The dB Check Pro fills a unique need for musicians, audio engineers, and listeners by letting them know exactly how loud they are listening and how long they can listen at those levels before possible hearing damage can take place. As the sole custom in-ear monitor manufacturer founded and operated by a practicing audiologist, Sensaphonics is uniquely qualified to provide safe, high-fidelity audio for those who work in high-SPL audio environments.
The dB Check Pro is the zenith of Sensaphonics founder and president Dr. Michael Santucci’s decades-long mission to help people enjoy and endure loud environments without damaging their hearing. An award-winning audiologist, Dr. Santucci has provided audiological treatment and hearing protection strategies to musicians, audio engineers/producers, and many of today’s most prolific music performers for four decades. Additionally, he has been a core member of the World Health Organization’s Make Listening Safe Initiative since its inception in 2015.
“Our mission at Sensaphonics has always been to protect and preserve the hearing of those who depend on it most,” said Dr. Michael Santucci. “The dB Check Pro embodies this commitment by giving users the ability to monitor their listening levels in real time. With our new pricing, we’re making it more accessible than ever for musicians, engineers, and audio enthusiasts to prioritize their hearing health without compromising on sound quality.”
Like a speedometer for your ears, the Sensaphonics dB Check Pro sound level analyzer is an in-line measurement device for in-ear monitors and headphones. The unit shows real-time and average listening levels at the performer’s ears for IEMS or headphones. It uses patented technology to analyze and display the real-time and average dBA-SPL levels, along with safe listening times according to NIOSH or OSHA standards. For the first time, IEM and headphone users can have real-time information to guide them when setting their listening levels on stage, in rehearsal, or in the recording studio.
Currently programmed for use with over 140 earphones from 12 major manufacturers and being continually updated as new models become available, this TEC Award-nominated patented device is the long-awaited answer to this question from IEM users: How loud am I listening? The dB Check Pro works unobtrusively in-line with the users’ monitoring system, and, likewise, one unit can be used in turn to evaluate listening parameters for each person in a band, group or as part of a sound reinforcement company’s critical analytical gear.
Complete details on the dB Check Pro sound level analyzer are available on the Sensaphonics website.
About the dB Check Pro
The dB Check Pro was born out of Sensaphonics’ focus on preserving hearing health in the music industry. It displays how loud the user is listening to their IEMs or headphones, as well as the safe exposure time for that level – all in real time, and with both earpieces in place. This allows artists and engineers to set their listening levels safely based on how long they will be playing. dB Check Pro is literally the only device on the market that gives music professionals the knowledge of how loud and how long they can listen safely on stage, in rehearsal, and in the studio. dB Check Pro is programmed to work with over 140 top professional IEM and headphone models (updatable) from 12 leading manufacturers, and also functions as a basic environmental sound level meter, with an integral on-board microphone to measure ambient room levels.[Ends: about 630 words]
