@Macabeak: I gave up on hearing aids a while ago. I've learned to lip read, so as long as I'm able to look at someone when they're speaking, I don't have a problem with understanding them.
|
I believe I am...
Even though I have been listening to music on speakers a lot. I think my overall poor health is effect my ears. |
I'm not they are pretty much dead anyways.
My mother damaged my ear drums when I was a child, but luckily didn't make me def, just hard of hear. u.u But if I was it would be because of my families loud mouths. I hardly listen to music louder then I need to. |
Currently..."Lollipop" by Framing Hanely, "Down" by Jay Sean, and "Touch Me" by All American Rejects are the three songs that simply blast my speakers out in my car. And I love every second of it.
My boss and I were walking out to our cars one night because I refuse to walk through a dark parking lot alone, and I got in my car and turned it on...forgetting I had forgotten to turn the volume down. Dir en grey's "Kodoku Ni Shisu, Yue Ni Kodoku," started blasting and the look on his face was priceless. XD |
I listen to my iPod too much...especially to drown out family. Dx I'm gonna go deaf by the time im 20</3
|
I listen to music almost everyday - at best with my earphones on so I wouldn't disturb anyone.
But considering how important hearing is, I may ditch the headphones. |
I listen to my music pretty loud in my car when I drive, I don't do that anywhere else though, and only my parents tells me it's too loud and none of my friends ever do, but then againl they hardly ever rides with me too. ^_^
|
I'll listen to my iPod pretty loud depending on where I'm at. But it doesn't really matter for me since my ears already suck. They're way too small and I always get infections of some sort. *sigh*
|
I don't like roller coasters. They're scary. D:
I don't l;ike having my volume on my mp3 player load. If I pull it away from me, and I can hear it, I turn it down. The only time I turn it all the way up is when I'm mad and need to block out everything. I've never been to a club. |
I used to crank the music on my headphones daily... now I only use them for classes, while I'm working, So they're not that loud. I need to hear my instructor. Instead any chance I get, I go to concerts and raves! I love to dance, so I love hearing music thumping!
I also love riding fast roller coasters! I'm a girl with a need for speed. |
I used to have to go to a concert once every other month O_o i stopped that it was killin me lol, and I used to listen to my music way too loud, but now I find im asking people "what?" "I didnt hear you say again?" and "huh?" alot lol I am now taking care of my eardrums because Im pretty sure all that music made me go a little deaf O_O but it doesnt help that my roomy plays his music loud enough that the whole neighborhood can hear it ~_~
|
I can dance the night away at a club given the chance. When a really sexy song comes on with a lot of base I get moving. And I tend to crank up my car stereo when Lady Gaga comes on or Shakira or that one song I can't remember the name of...
I've only got one working eardrum anyway. So the way I see it is, enjoy the music while it lasts! Everyone's hearing deteriorates as they get older anyway. It's a natural aging process. It just goes a little bit faster with all our sound technology is all. :P \And what's really cool for me is that since my right eardrum doesn't work, I have a hearing aid that sends sound straight to the cochlea. So even is my eardrum was destroyed, I could still hear without it. HA HA! Being slightly dissabled is kinda cool sometimes. :D |
earphones most definately xD
|
I always listen to my Ipod, I hate having the music down low. I think i'll be deaf by the time i'm an adult. >.>
|
hehe i'll probably go deaf too becuz my friends can scream really loud O.o
|
Led Zeppelin. Need I say more? XD
|
In college, there was a party I really wanted to be at...but I ended up standing in the hallway because the music was turned up so loud. Should have gotten ear protection thinking back and then went in and enjoyed the party.
|
I try to keep my music at safer levels when listening to my headphones. Being a musician, I have my headphones on a lot while I'm working on music so as to not disturb my wife when she's wanting quiet.
A general rule of thumb in mixing/mastering audio is to work at lower sound levels, so by default I tend to keep my volume at a lower setting. It helps your ears to not get so worn out after hours of listening. Though when I'm just listening to music I turn it up a bit louder, but not too much since I have a rather powerful pair of headphones. |
I'm the only person i know who doesn't use a ipod of mp3. I have naturally very sensitive ears, so it doesn't take much to damage them. I have to be careful on the few visits i take to parties with loud music, because even with earplugs in i still end up with ringing ears.
That said, the odd song in the car, or on the radio, i will crank up the volume, but it's only for the duration of the song. It irks me the way people abuse their ears sometimes. |
'I only kill my ears at concerts *Ne-yo or course* and with my brother's headset. my headset doesn't get nearly as loud as my brother's!
now those are some bitches you gotta keep on low or they'll give you a headache. |
When I'm wearing my headphones I can typically still hear the things around me. I don't like not being able to hear what's going on. My music can get pretty loud in the car sometimes, but those aren't headphones, so it's a little better.
I've been to a few loud concerts. I was too excited to care about my eardrums. |
Unless I'm at a really noisy place, my headphones are always at a decent level, just enough so that I can hear the conversations around me but not know what they're talking about. I'm not a concert person or a party person so I usually avoid them.
|
I usually ALWAYS have music in my ears but i always have it low enough so that if someone is talking to me i can carry a conversation and not keep saying "Huh?" or "What did you say?" I enjoy music and i think that if kept at a decent level whereas it's not inferring with your life you're fine.
I've been to many concerts and tours; (warped tours 06-09, the glamour kills tour, voodoo, bamboozle etc.) But you just get so caught up and excited that you're AT A CONCERT that you don't really mind the noise. My eardrums have never busted, and considering i PLAY music, that's a grand thing (: |
When i'm really annoyed or distracted too much I tend to turn up the volume but I usaully keep my music fairly low, like low enough to talk to people and listen to music at the same time. XD
|
I actually hate loud noise. I always turn the volume down on my earphones to where I can just hear it. I did ruin my ears for a few years when I was in marching band in high school
