I'm curious. What is your "normal" listening volume?

75-85dB in large open great room. 

Typically less than 90 dB and always less than 85 when the dogs are with me.

My understanding is that this will not lead to hearing damage if exposed for only a few hours a day.

I do not think my system needs more work. It's all personal preference and the music to which one listens. Eva Cassidy at 90 is not my cup of tea but nor is Captain Beyond at 70.

Bingo! Give that man the giant stuffed Pokemon!

I find it amazing how my listening level of DB-C at 10 feet back in an open 16x22 room is 40-60’s depending on genre and a track’s recording quality.  Approaching 70 DB-C and it starts getting uncomfortable and less enjoyable.  I cannot fathom listening in the 80-90’s. I would have a mutiny in my household as well. 

60-70dB with family around doing their things.

78-85dB with an empty house, measured at the listening position. This feels loud, or at least authoritative, without being uncomfortable.
