Sensaphonics celebrates 40th anniversary with year-long price drop on dB Check Pro
Marking four decades of innovation, Sensaphonics makes safe listening more accessible with a new lower price for its dB Check Pro sound level analyzer.
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 IEM and headphone users know exactly how loud they are listening and how long they can listen at those levels before possible hearing damage. 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 their specific 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 and set levels for each person in a band, or as part of a sound reinforcement company’s critical analytical gear.
