Hey,
okay I'm really worried about my hearing! I use those 24SNR Vic Firth Headphones and doctormade earplugs with 15SNR. When I practise I play in a small room, so if my drums make a noise of 90 DBZ that would make 66 DBZ when I practise. Will that affect my hearing, maybe when I'm older? If i practise 2 hours a day on 6 days a week?
Okay and another question: when playing with bands I use my doctor made plugs. It's so much more comfortable with the plugs, but if i compare the sound level with and without plugs there is not so much difference. But after sessions my ears don't ring, or at least not much.
Do you think I just feel save with my plugs or does 15dbz really make a difference?
Okay, thanks in advance, I might also ask a doctor but what's your experience/thoughts?
