"It's An Endurance Thing. You Need Stamina..."

General Asylum

General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

Thus says one participant about the "Banging", subjecting themselves to ungodly levels of music. See the clip of the woman's hair flying as if in a breeze; the "breeze" is the sonic waves from the woofers. Ouch! Note that before her hair begins to fly the guy standing behind her just outside the vehicle, with his ears uncovered. I suggest he will be fine candidate for hearing aids in the not too distant future.

I wouldn't want to be anywhere near that. :( Sure, if hearing protection could be assured, it would be fun to walk around and see, but at levels approaching 160dB? No, you won't find me there, as you didn't find me at horrifically loud rock concerts years ago or rocket car drag races, monster truck indoor events, etc.

I value my hearing too much to take a sonic jackhammer to my ears. Imo, these people are not wise for abusing their hearing to such a degree. About the same degree of sensibility as Free Solo climbing. Sure, a rush - it's a free world, and one can do extremely risky things if they wish. But, there's a cost associated, and the cost can be extreme.

I prefer sensible choices in regards to hearing, as I hope to have the acuity to enjoy fully a fine system for a long, long time. :)
