earHero.com develops Worlds Safest Earphones for runners. Listen to music while hearing sounds around you.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) January 11, 2012 -- Boise, Idaho January 11, 2012

Almost all earphones used for running on the market today focus on isolating the user so they only hear the music. earHero http://www.earhero.com offers the worlds safest earphone. earHero’s proprietary patent pending product uses miniature speakers that are so tiny they never block your ear canal.

Clinical audiologist and inventor Matt Murphy felt that wearing standard earphones was unsafe because they isolate the wearer from dangers in their environment. Also, when the user sealed the ear with typical earphones the sound pressure could cause hearing loss over time.

Murphy noted that if your ears are ringing after listening to your earphones for a period of time the chances are good that you have initiated a temporary hearing loss. Repeated use can lead to a permanent threshold shift.

He created a product that would allow people to listen to music while at the same time maintaining awareness of sounds around them. "They do not seal the ear so the sound pressure is released and the outside sound is allowed to enter the ear" explained Murphy

Being audiologist, Murphy used products that were typically found in high end hearing aids and created a few prototypes for testing.

After years they have finally developed a product that is small, comfortable, and has good sound quality.
In addition to the outdoor enthusiast market they have placed units in the government security industry.
The earHero can be purchased at http://www.earhero.com.
