How loud is your music

[Rainblow H. Ash 5,090]

Yeah. 100 db's in my ears for almost 2 years now.

 

Ouch.

 

As for myself, I listen to my music at a moderate level in headphones.

 

But...

 

I had to pick "Neighbors need new windows" because I mostly listen to music when I'm driving around, and I crank it up to the max where everypony within a five block radius can either hear what I'm listening to or feel and hear the bass from it.

 

And it's usually a mix between rock, rap, and pony songs, so you know everypony is rocking out along with me.

 

Swag all day, son.

[Freewave 1,145]

Probably too loud but almost always on headphones. My pc speakers are god awful and so i listen to my computer in my studio and my ipod with headphones.

[Diamond Treasure 118]

my music is up all the bucking way bc its easier to ignore the bull crap going on around me and i turn it up all the way when i am depressed which is often

[Treble Bolt 1,122]

With headphones or earbuds, I tend to listen to music loud enough so I can't hear anyone around me.  I like to drown out the world when I listen to music. 

 

I listen to music even louder when I ride my bike.

 

With speakers at home, I have the music loud enough so I hear it throughout my entire house.  I typically do this when I am doing chores.

 

When driving, if I am with my husband, I tend to listen to folk music and it's loud enough to hear, but quiet enough so we don't have to yell over the music talking.  When I am alone and driving, I listen to my brony music (and other adrenaline pumping music) loud enough to drown out my very thoughts...

 

When I am listen to accordion music alone driving, I roll down my window and blast it as high as it can go, because accordion music is awesome!

[Harmonic Revelations 8,833]

I use headphones but I still listen to them loud enough that you can hear the music clearly across the room.  I think I've suffered hearing damage from it, actually.

[Milk Wave 454]

Ouch.

 

Ouch would be the best way to put it.

 

I should really tone down the music by a lot, considering my hearing has been damaged a little bit. I only really want to feel bass in songs, and the louder you turn up the volume, the louder it gets.

 

This also works well with some Beats + a Beats audio sound card in yur laptop.

I know, I love to feel the bass in the songs too which is why I blast the music in my car, it's the only way for the bass to really hit me. My radio is also really old in my car, so I can't really fiddle around with the settings either. Hearing loss is a bad thing I suppose, but it's the cost we pay for listening to awesome music.

 

Speaking of which, are Beats worth the price? I think they're way to expensive for me, but I'm curious about how good they actually are.

[CloudFyre 848]

According to other people (as in doctors and such), I've always had extraordinary hearing and eyesight. The eyesight is now just "normal", but I've tried hard to retain my good hearing.

As such, my music seems very quiet to most people - and I guess that's a good sign.

[Lunas Husband 2,777]

Ahh not to loud where every pony around me could hear it.. but not so quiet that I cant hear it.. on a scale of 1-10.... ah would go with a 5-6

[Hypn0ticD 1,213]

I need to drown out the world when I listen to music, so I usually have the volume all the way up! Bad for my hearing, I know, but I really don't care! :comeatus:

[Scootalove 10,684]

My music is very loud without any headphones, but very low with them on.

[Paianis 488]

Loud, but almost never on the highest setting, unless I have music especially quiet. As yet, I haven't had noticable hearing loss even though I'm always on headphones, but I do hope for decent monitors at my workstation soon.

No.they are not. You're paying for the name. They have the same sound quality as my $30 Tritton gaming headset. I would get Seinnheisers or some Sony, ones....there's also some very good high end headphones out there for the same cost as Beats.

 

I use my 30 year old Realistic Nova Pros on my PC...they are awesome for being 30 years old, they're still as good as/better than my Tritton headset or Beats. Though not recommended for mobile use, they'd kill the battery. These are meant to be plugged into a stereo/studio and that's how I use  them.

 

 

Depends....sometimes I"ll have my music cranked with my headphones on...so much so I feel the bass vibrating them on my head..I usually tend to have them at a comfortable listening level.

 

My in game music is similar, but not enough to drown out other sounds in the game...

If i can't feel the music all the way down to my soul......it's not loud enough..... Which it takes a youtube video at max when my system sound is at 40% to do so 

[Surface 115]

How loud I have everything else, 8% I think. I can't hear loud things, but when I do it doesn't sound different than normal. 

[Revy ~ Two Hands 862]

Since most of the music I listen to is pony mixes then I would have to say my music is exactly 20% louder.

 

Pinkiepieswear and Djalex are best mixers.

[noodlepup3 31]

I have it on exactly 50% on my computer. Thats the only amount it will go. No louder no quieter. (Mainly because of my OCD. )

[Moonlight 7,279]

I usually keep my music rather loud, while listening through headphones or not. However, when I require concentration, I'll keep it turned down rather low. Low enough so it doesn't grab my attention but loud enough for me to realize it's playing.

[Doc. Volt 2,561]

in the metal there is only one rule: THE VOLUME MUST BE HIIIGHHH!!!
 

btw i listen to loud volumes only rock and metal.. but i usually i am a blues/jazz guy... so warm volumes... 54 db is the best... so lovely... beautifull for a warm nice night with your girlfriend... ah....fade to black....six blade knife... those songs are beautifull

[Nerdy Luigi 2,064]

My music is almost always at the first volume setting. Occasionally second or third on quieter songs. I hate annoying people around me and getting myself deaf (part of the way in my left ear already from loud shit)

[Arylett Charnoa 4,919]

My ears can't really handle loud, so it's just medium for the most part. The reason also is that there might be a lot of noises outside of my music, and I find that I have an inability to filter out random noise and cannot concentrate at certain volumes. It just combines with the music to make this horrid racket that tortures my ears and mind, and irritates me a lot. That's why I hate it when people talk to me whilst I'm listening to loud music. And they do at times.

 

Also, if music is TOO loud, I can... feel it in my heart. I can feel the bass resonating with my heartbeat and it is just an awful feeling. I just hate loud in general, so moderate is good.

[Doc. Volt 2,561]

also... this explain everything

"Feeling a slight rumble"

 

When I have ear buds in, oh heck yes my headphones are almost all the way.

 

Over the ear, I turn it up as loud as I can to hear it myself but nobody else can hear it. (Unless it is a day I don't really care.)

The only time I have a set sound level is when I'm doing video editing for YouTube than I make all sounds to the level that plays best at exactly 20% volume on my laptop. Since I'm not a sound engineer I can't say that is optimum but the audio of my YouTube videos always sounds balanced and clear so it seems to work.
