Loudness, its complicated. I used to be a DJ and my other ahlf of our set got tinitus permanently in his left ear, which was the headphone ear. The right was listening to the club speakers.I have read quite a bit about this, and I believe damage is done by:
1. Volume
2. Period of time listening and the amount of times listening
(it can take over a week to recover from one night out in a normal club).
3. The frequency of the loudest sounds
(high frequency potentially does the most damage)
4. The quality
(by this I am referring especially to badly designed high frequncy horns)In a standard home set-up it will have to be at silly levels to do anything like the damage you would get from a live concert (Jazz and electronic music is worst for piercing sound waves) or a big club system.
Plus I guess the quality of the sound emanating from a decent hi-fi setup will be much better than a club.
At the end of the day, if you want to rock, rock, and unless you live in a detached house well away from neighbours, the police will probably call before your ear pack up.
