What you have to bear in mind, in relation to the thread on this topic, is most people don't have the ability to measure as Amir and company do (hence the need to make this video to defend himself in the first place).When people state their listening volumes, they're looking at things like the readout on their processors or AVRs to come up with a number. Those readouts are not a true reflection of how loud we are actually listening to music, 90dB+ on a processor means you are listening at very high volumes indeed.In regards the volume of orchestras, it's very dynamic music and the way they are measuring no doubt takes that into account, that and the safety of the musicians exposed to those volumes on a more regular and prolonged basis.</blockquote>
