Do d.j's have hearing problems?
View this Thread in Original format

After watching many djs live.. i have always wondered if they seem to have hearing loss or ear damage due to the accessive amount of high decible sounds that they endure almost every other day during their busy gig schedule.. does anyone know or has heard of this. I wonder about it becuase most of the time.. these dj as well have huge monitor speakers at their sides so they can hear the music in real time.

lots of them have earplugs that reduce frequencies. I know my ears ring like every night. but w/e i figure if im not dead by the time im 23 something is wrong :D

im half deaf from my right ear...so yes... gotta be carefull...i always go with minimum monitor/hadphones volume i can when i mix now...as in i barely make out the difference...but i got used to it.

they also have control over the monitor/headphones volumes so they could be careful and like fassy said they do have earplugs.

it's the same idea as the rock stars.

Check Laurent Garnier he stopped for half a year to ease of his ears!

My ears are always ringing but I'm pretty much used to it. I always crank up the stereo when I practice on my tables and when I'm just relaxing listening to cds. I always listen to music loud in my headphones too.

My brother used the sony headphones (mdv-7000 or something) for a year or so and he claims they made him slighty deaf in one ear. he says there too loud.
