The Risk The risk I would like to mention from hearing music at a high level of sound is the risk of “Hearing loss”, risk that is claimed to be temporary or permanently loss of hearing capability. It can provide a short or long term effect on the brain also. Sound measurement that is admitted the risk is, the sound that would be less than or equal to 85 dB and continued for 8 hours a day and the sound that is 100 dB more or less than that continued to just 15 minutes can damage, hopefully destroy one’s hearing power.
