[QUOTE="Donewithaudio, post: 7448619, member: 635759"] Yes, It has happened. 5 years of loud music has left me almost paralyzed. I used to bump loud for about an hour a day. It happened while i was listening to loud music, I felt something go wrong with my right ear 4 months ago I was diagnosed with Cranial, Vestibulocochlear, Facial and Auditory nerve Damage. All these nerves are in your Brain. My symptoms are: Hypersensitvity: any sound is extremely painful ( even the tick from a clock) Ear palpitations Extreme ear Pressure Brain tremors and jolts Cluster Headaches Facial numbness Tinnitus Vertigo Nausea Anxiety Depression I can barely get out of bed, and have not had a conversation with a person for 4 months. Its just too painful. The only thing I can do it surf the net alone in complete silence. Talk about a Change! My advice to all of you is to STOP this hobby. If you must, have a SQ system with a soft front stage. For low end use an A/B mono amp with an SQ set up, like an Image Dynamics ID-Q sealed in 1 cu ft enclosure. Other than that, I wish you guy never have to experience this, but the truth is, everyone on here will experience some sort of damage. I hope not this debilitating. Good Luck [/QUOTE]
