Has the World Always Been
This Loud?
HEARING YOUR SURROUNDINGS
When first wearing your Eargo devices, keep the volume low.
Your brain will likely be hearing sounds you may not have heard
for some time. Your brain will be like a kid who’s been cooped up
in a car for way too long suddenly being cut loose on a beach.
Just running around out there hearing everything it can. And
giggling happily to itself. Anyway, our point is, little sounds may
suddenly seem very loud. Things like water running, bags of chips
crinkling, paper crumpling, babies crying and the sound of traffic.
Your brain needs a little time to get used to hearing these high
frequency sounds again. It probably hasn’t heard them for a
long time. Give it a little while. The first weeks with your Eargo
devices will be a time of adjustment. These sounds will begin to
fade into the background as your brain relearns which ones are
important and which can be ignored.
