Loud Music
One of the most common causes of hearing loss is noise while hearing loss is regarded as one of the most common occupational illnesses in America. Noise plays a crucial factor in hearing loss because of its prevalence and people's vulnerability to exposure to noisy environments. Exposures to a single shot from a large caliber firearm can instantly result in permanent hearing loss whereas repeated exposures to loud machinery or music over a long period of time poses serious risks to human hearing (Fligor par, 1). Noise is a major cause of hearing loss because people tend to overlook or underestimate its impact as it continues to damage human hearing gradually.

Aristoxenos, two centuries after Pythagoras released his model, sought to discredit the standing theories held by Pythagorean devotees. In his works, he established that numbers are not relevant to music, and that music is based on perception of what one hears, not any mathematical equation.
