I see that brand loyalty must be nurtured. It would appear that they went out of their way to make sure that nobody could fairly criticize them for damaging young hearings, with all but the base model.

However a big but is, if headphone-wearing teens and adults are stereotypically inattentive of where they are going, what would noise-cancelling-headphone-wearing kids be like?
