Washable Headphones and Headsets
Califone International's new Titanium Series line of headphones and headsets can be completely immersed in soap and water (after the cord has been detached) for easy cleaning. To maintain safe hearing levels, the playback volume is restricted to the ASHA-recommended maximum of 85 decibels (this feature can be disarmed for hearing-impaired students). In addition, the devices' ear cups provide passive ambient-noise rejection to block external distractions. A variety of cord options are available, including USB, 3.5 mm, and dual 3.5 mm plugs. Headset prices range from $52 to $92; headphone prices, from $36 to $76. Booth 4117
