So this past weekend, I went to one of the dance clubs (my phone app measured about 80 decibels). And I used 20 NR earplugs. My ears were fine after, and I only stayed for about ten minutes to test things.. Still; I find it kind of dumb how they place one of the large speakers that's blasting...

That I will do. Thanks.

Fortunately, I don't fear loud noises. I'm just uncomfortable putting myself in a position where loud sound is being blasted at me for minutes on end. Also, maybe the music was louder than 85 decibels. How many decibels does music have to be before you can hear it vibrate from outside a venue?

Thank you for the interesting read. Since the music at the place I mentioned in the above post vibrates from outside, then I doubt it would be safe even ear plugs . Better safe than sorry. I've been given a second chance to keep my hearing, and I'm not going to ruin it again, because next...

My name is Kevin, and I no longer suffer from Tinnitus. However, I still have a story to share about my experience. This may be a bit of a long one, so bare with me. Back in October, I started struggling with tinnitus. Before this, I was going out Salsa dancing at a nearby place almost every...
