How to lower SPL by 30 - 40 dB

Hi all, I am not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I want to take a shot: I have a circuit with small silicon microphone that has acoustic overload at 128db, however environment where I am going to monitor sound can get louder than that so I need to reliable lower incoming sound pressure by approximately 30db, kind of like putting protective headphones over ears when you do constructi

Music Theory Question

First I apologize if this is in the wrong place. I searched a couple times...because I thought I remembered a "music theory" section of this place...but I can't find it now. If there isn't one, it would be cool to have one...for me lol.

I know very little about theory. I know many of the popular chords, some of them would take me a second to tell you what the 3-5-7's are etc.

Speaker went out

I have a set of Samson A8 studio monitors. One day I heard static coming from one speaker. Every time a touched the volume knob on my audio interface I heard the sound. I still listened to music fine for two weeks. Today I opened pro tools to listen to music and I heard it more consistently and while the music was playing. All of a sudden the monitor completely stopped working.
