Puro Sound Labs built its brand on volume-limited headphones, and the BT2200-Plus is its flagship kids model. Puro caps output at 85 dB, citing the World Health Organization recommendation, and describes the cap without a Bluetooth-only footnote. It also publishes a passive isolation figure: the closed design blocks 83% of ambient noise at 1 kHz just by being worn, which helps children hear clearly at a lower volume. Swappable ear cups turn it from an on-ear into an over-ear headphone for a better seal and more comfort on long trips. Puro tunes the sound to its Balanced Response Curve and rates the battery at up to 20 hours of playback and 200 hours of standby, with a 3.5mm cable for wired use when the battery runs out. Cushions and headband use vegan protein leather. The trade-off is price: at $99 it costs about three times as much as Belkin's kids models, with a shorter battery.
