Is It Wrong...


...to blast Led Zepplin III from my Bose at sound level 11 when the family is gone? Sure, I am breaking plates in the neighbors houses and scaring small children, but WTF, sometimes I need to ROCK!

Not at all. If you're old you'll wear yourself out pretty quickly anyhow.

Earphones give me a headache. I could only take it for 3 songs, I guess I am getting old.

Re: Is It Wrong...


Thanks to a track meet, I was able to exercise the stereo again. I started at level 5 with Brother Bob Marley, and moved into Psychedelic Furs (good call on level 13), then moved on to Echo and the Bunnymen. Johnny Cash is on now to bring it home.

Mine are at least 20 years old, prob closer to 30 and they sound as good at level 13 as they do at 1.
