Message	The intensity level of a loud sound which gives pain to the ear, usually between 115 and 140 dB (see graph). For some listeners with HYPERACUSIS these levels may be much lower. At lower levels occur the threshold of feeling (or tickle) and the threshold of discomfort. It has been stated that this latter threshold "rises substantially with increasing habituation ... naive listeners reach a limit about 125 dB SPL and experienced listeners at 135 to 140 dB." (Edwin B. Newman, "Speech and Hearing," in American Institute of Physics Handbook, 3rd edition, p. 3-155.) Most audiologists agree however that no unprotected ear should ever be exposed to 135 dB sound. Audio Stuff IMO, sound quality is a much better goal. But making your windsheild wipers bounce is also a good time =) "...Downpipes own. They own everything...anything...all there ever was and will be...they should be stock on all cars.
