"A friend has some custom speakers that are 107dB/2.83V/1M.
Most of the time he is listening to 100mW or so, the quality of the program material just isn't all that good.
Two albums cause him to run his 200W/8Ω amplifier into clipping (the Sheffield Drum Record being one)."
That would be over 130db.
I can, with a high degree of certainty, say that your friend has hearing damage.
