IEC 60065 covers all the aspects of safety of loudspeakers per se that can be quantified. Safe limits of sound pressure depend very much indeed on the environment and are covered by OSHA rules, or the equivalent in other countries. The magnetic fields of loudspeakers are of no significance in the context of safety, barring bizarre contrived situations. -- Regards, John Woodgate, OOO - Own Opinions Only.
