Antonia Olivia Dolan and colleagues conducted a study of the differences between musicians and nonmusicians in their preferred volume, in decibels (dB), for listening to various audio recordings including acoustic folk music, classic rock music, and nature sounds. The musicians, who reported much greater lifetime noise exposure than the nonmusicians did, tended to listen to the recordings at higher volumes than the nonmusicians did. The musicians and the nonmusicians had clinically comparable hearing, however, suggesting that while a musician’s preferred volume for playing a favorite recording might be 90.8 dB and a nonmusician’s might be 61.5 dB, this difference

does not arise from the musician having a clinically significant reduction in hearing ability as a result of lifetime noise exposure.

cannot be explained as resulting from the musician’s relatively greater musical expertise.

indicates that the musician is unlikely to listen to a nonfavorite recording at a higher volume than the nonmusician would.

shows that both the musician and the nonmusician have lower hearing ability than would be expected of clinically typical individuals with typical levels of lifetime noise exposure.
