[QUOTE="quackhead, post: 7826179, member: 573547"] The Competition aspects of car audio cannot be denied. Should there be mandatory hearing protection required by all participants at any event governed by a sanctioning body, if OSHA limits are exceeded? Anything over 120db can damage hearing instantly. According to the Occupational Safety and Heath Administration, if the TWA (Time Weighted Average) noise level is exceeding 85 dB(A), a hearing conservation program is required. OSHA's Permissible Noise Exposure: 90 dB - 8.0 hours 92 dB - 6.0 hours 95 dB - 4.0 hours 97 dB - 3.0 hours 100 dB - 2.0 hours 102 dB - 1.5 hours 105 dB - 1.0 hours 110 dB - 30 minutes 115 dB - 15 minutes but of course, if we all lived by this, then one would need earplugs to go with a good case of the farts.
