[QUOTE="ed v, post: 8832451, member: 688362"] Hello, I recently upgraded my stock system with new speakers amp and stereo. How ever after about 45 mins of driving around testing the sound I started noticing my ears getting dull at first . I lowered the volume down and my hearing was getting worse and started feeling some heavy pressure like when you dive deep. After that I turned off the stereo completely and noticed a humming sound coming out of my speakers the pressure got even worse from the frequencies that the humming was producing. It got so bad I had a panic attack and almost felt that if I stayed any longer inside my truck my ears were going to burst.
