How to tell when you are doing damage

do you guys ever hear friends or relatives tell you that your system is outrageous and that your going to go deaf eventually?

i think when you are always shouting WHAT to somebody who isnt even talking, thats when you know your doing damage

uhh, for me? i have tinnitus. it sounds like a faint whine that i notice better when there's no other sounds to listen to. i have damaged my hearing more with firecrackers and walkmans long before i got into car audio though.

Here's what you do...

You listen at the volume you're listening at...

...3-4 weeks later, it won't be as loud.

...Grab more power.

..Listen to that for 3-4 weeks....won't be as loud.

That's how you train your ears to handle loud music //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

It must be really hard to tune your system for imaging or TA then.
