music Do you listen to music through headphones loudly?

[Member Berry 1,217]

I always listen to music really loudly though headphones, especially rock. My dad keeps telling me to stop, I probably should :/ 

[Denim&Venöm 16,498]

Oh all the time. The music doesn't have the same impact otherwise. 

[Luminn 109]

Same here. Gives the music alot more impact in my opinion.

[Abstract 831]

Sometimes, yes. When I do, every 3 or 4 songs I take a break, pull the headphones off my head for a couple of minutes, then resume listening. After song after song of turning it up slightly, you don't realize just how loud you have it until there is silence for a while and taking a short break will make you wan to turn it back down again when you resume listening.

[Teavvi 627]

Nope. Not at all. I always like to keep it quiet for some reason.

[Noandnoandno 100]

There is no better way to listen to music.

[Flutterstep 46,280]

I always listen to music very loudly. Be it rock, house, metal or dubstep, I can't help but turn up the volume to hear all the flavours the music has to offer. However, I am sure it has damaged my hearing a tiny bit. Oh well xD

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 40,270]

Most of the time I do. I tend to get reeeeeeeaaaaaaaally into music, and having it loud makes it have more impact.

[gamecubeguy214 2,511]

Listening to music at a reasonable volume just doesn't feel right to me. So yes, definitely.

[IsraelYabuki 439]

only if my folks are listening to their music loudly or my earphones aren't loud enough

[Flamestreak1990 1,172]

Hell yes, if it's not loud it's not good

I kinda am guilty of doing that, especially with bass boosted songs (I love bass and it sounds better when it's LOUD)    Twice I've broken my earbuds because of it, and thankfully I now have Apple earbuds which seem to hold up well. I guess I'll wait 'till I get a car and then pimp it out with a kicker awesome sound system

I can't have my volume to high since my headphones are open-back.

[NightmareLuna800 1,383]

I always listen to mine at a fairly loud volume. I just like it for some reason, maybe because if I go below a certain point it seems too quiet.

[Chrylestia600 1,307]

Yeah, and I love it... but I'm always feeling guilty about it since I know it's probably not all that great for my hearing, lol.

[twiia 1,842]

I play loud music... without headphones. Unless somepony annoys me.

[kanwe yest 157]

i'm listening to FML real loud rn.

[El Duderino 878]

My headphone volume is normally probably too loud. I like to drown everything else out. 

[Cosmik Vek 764]

When I'm in the car with my earphones... sure, I put my volume as high as I can without damaging too much my ears, mainly to block the outside noises (the music that goes out of the radio for the most part). When I'm home with my headphones though, I like to keep my volume a tad down not only for music but for everything, because I feel like that's unecessary to make it louder when I'm alone in my room.

Through my headphones? Yes, almost always. The music has more impact this way, and most of my playlist is high-tempo energetic/rhythmic tracks, so it just doesn't feel the same if it's on low volume.

 

However, if it's through my speakers, I have it pretty low, I don't really like playing loud music through them, it's a tad bit too loud to say the least.

[Leave a Whisper 703]

Yes, it sounds so good. It also requires me to buy replacement headphones more often.

[Dreambiscuit 8,023]

I listen fairly loud but not to the distortion point. I like to be able to still hear other stuff after I've taken the headphones off. My iPod has a buggy audio jack so I don't really have a lot of choice anyway. 

[silvadel 1,393]

I'm the other way -- I'll listen to sound louder when it is through good real speakers.  If I am wearing headphones, the reason is probably because the air conditioning is on high and it is too loud in the room anyway, and the headset is there mostly to block out the ambient noise while providing the sound.

[Rarity Is Best Pony 634]

Is there another way to listen to music through headphones? To answer the question though I do listen loudly but not so much so that other people could hear my music as that would be rude of me.

[Seraph 128]

Nope, I have tiny ears that are incredibly sensitive so I try to refrain from listening to music too loud. That and my parents had a habit of talking about me when I had headphones on, forgetting that I could still hear them thanks to my ears. So I'd rather not drown out some lovely gossip about me that I can't respond to.
