• Noise Attenuation
  This product has been tested to the European Safety Standard EN352-1:2002 and the ANSI S3.19-1974 standard for a hearing protector, with a Single Number Rating (SNR) of 27 dB and a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) of 21 dB. Full testing details are available in the Noise Attenuation section of this booklet.

• ANSI S3.19-1974
  The level of noise entering a person’s ear, when ISOtunes® Sport DEFY Slim headphones are worn as directed, is closely approximated by the difference between the A-weighted environmental noise level and the Noise Reduction Rating (NRR). Improper fit of this device will reduce its effectiveness in attenuating noise. Consult the enclosed instructions for proper fitting.

  • A1: Frequency (Hz)
  • A2: Mean Attenuation (dB)
  • A3: Standard Deviation (dB)

• Example:

  • The surrounding noise level measured at the ear is 100 dB.
  • The NRR of ISOtunes® Sport DEFY Slim is 21 dB.
  • The noise level entering the ear is approximately equal to 79 dB.

• Please note that the NRR is based on the attenuation of continuous noise and may not be an accurate indicator of the protection attainable against impulsive noise, such as gunfire.

  • EN 352
  • B1: Frequency (Hz)
  • B2: Mean Attenuation (dB)
  • B3: Standard Deviation (dB)
  • B4: Assumed Protection Value (APV) (dB)
  • B5:
  • H = Hearing protection estimation for high frequency sounds (f ≥ 2000Hz)
  • M = Hearing protection estimation for medium frequency sounds (500 Hz < f < 2000Hz)
  • L = Hearing protection estimation for low frequency sounds (f ≤ 500Hz)

• SafeMax™ Technology
  ISOtunes® Sport DEFY Slim incorporates SafeMax™ Technology, therefore its volume output has been limited to 85 decibels. ISOtunes® Sport devices with SafeMax™ Technology are OSHA, and ANSI compliant.

• Tactical Sound Control™ Technology
