Seems to be tricky to find anything actually.

This mic has a max input SPL of 134dB which receives the comment "Hi-SPL
handling is perfect for suspension over choirs and orchestras"

Try this:

Dynamic-Range Requirement for Subjectively Noise-Free Reproduction of Music
JAES Volume 30 Issue 7/8 pp. 504-511; August 1982

A dynamic range of up to 118 dB is determined necessary for subjectively
noise-free reproeuction of music in an audio recorder with a white-noise
floor. Maximum peak sound-pressure levels in music are compared to the minimum
discernible level of white noise in a quiet listening situation. Microphone
noise limitations, monitoring loudspeaker capabilities, and performance
environment noise levels are also considered.

Thanks Bob !
