^^No, sometimes I listen to it full blast, that'd be my normal volume tbh

Thats about the same volume that I have, but if I remember correctly you listen on hours end so it can have some damages to your ears unless you dont use earbuds/headphones?
You have the 1st generation ipod I believe?

I don't think the volume makes you particularly insane, but from what I've heard, you are pretty crazy.

Nope I mean at any time. You need to give you ears some rest so you won't have any hearing loss when you get older. How many hours do you listen to your ipod with earbuds on?

 

[CalcuoCuchicheo]

For the volume? No.

But in 'net circles your name is whispered with fear & you are often referred to as your underworld name, 'Tha OG'.....I am inclined to believe you must be at least a mixed salad short of a full picnic basket if not a whole beef pasty....

For the volume? No...

Actually yes it can damage his hearing in the long run. It depends on how long he is listening to his ipod and how frequent he uses it. Check out the decibels and what they are compared to:

GITVIHC, mobile phones are known to be harmful. Does this make mobile phone users certified insane? Nope.

 

[Dave D]

Usually I listened to it at that volume about 6 times a day for 20mins, coffe break, ride home etc. then at a lower volume throughout the day. Oh and I dont use earbuds, they make a differance?

I don't know about being insane, but it terms of hearing loss it can have an effect and studies have proven that. He can develop over time acoustic trauma (injury caused by noise) to the hair cells. It just depends on how long and how frequent he uses his ipod.

Dave D took a bullet to the face & laughed it off....I doubt an iPod is going to fuck up his day.

It was actually to the chest, but nevermind.

As long as you are giving your ears a little break here and there then its pretty much okay. Once you start hearing a litte low pitch noise without your ipod on, then my friend you will have problems. Just take care of your hearing. About the earbuds for my personal experience after 30 minutes my ears would hurt like a mother because you have to shove them in your ears while headbuds you don't.
