Hearing loss can be either immediate or upon long term exposure. Impulse noise (like a gun shot) can do the damage immediately. Music (or any sound) over 85 dba is listed as possible hearing damage by numerous standards. (some jurisdictions use 90 dba). This is a level much lower than concert level music and often personal stereo levels. IMO if you want to be able to hear music in future years you need to take precautions now.
