[QUOTE="Autora, post: 2564951"] Evidently you've never studied biology, Jet.. The sounds from music on speakers can do damage but over a long period of time. It affects the tollerance and sensitivity. But there's tones that can be produced which can do far more damage over a very short period of time, including bursting the eardrum which would cause permenant hearing loss. I hope TMP doesn't use qite that tone or level... But these tones would be affective even over the top of base music.
