For me, only certain music is good loud, so I don't have the stero blasting all the time. I do notice, after a long exposure to it my ears start ringing, but I think that is like an equalizing effect, like staring at one color for a long time, or being exposed to vibrations for a time, you start to see and feel them when they are not there. Holding a conversation is hard to do with loud music for me because my voice starts to go weak and I know of no way to talk except for screaming in the other party's ear. Rob Hennessy
