Does anybody know what the dB level of macbook speakers playing at max volume is? I am curious to know if playing music at max volume through them while sitting about 2-3 feet away from them can damage hearing.


Probably depends on the model. Maybe try downloading a phone app and testing it. I don't think my 11.6" Air makes enough sound to do damage at 2'. Using the Earpods at max I notice some increased tinnitus though.
