Scientists discover new compound that may prevent hearing loss

Scientists at Harvard University have just discovered a new compound that may prevent noise induced hearing loss if taken prior to damaging events.  It is still a long ways off, so it is best to protect your ears the old fashioned way: listen at safe volume levels and when going to a concert or loud event, make sure you use hearing protection.  What volume levels do you listen at, and do you have any NIHL (Noise Induced Hearing Loss)?

Having a life-long love of high-quality audio and gadgets, average_joe got back in touch with his audiophile side after a hiatus caused by life. His focus became headphones and related gear as the size and price fit his life better than home audio. He believes the entire audio chain is important, and likes to continue to think past the headphone and on into the head, as he believes understanding the details of how we hear will lead to a better audio experience.
