Can all headphones handle HIGH Volume levels?

The Sennheiser Pro HD 25-1-II are a great choice - extremely dynamic and can play at 120 db SPL. However, beware that you may find other headphones sound lifeless once you have tried them.

Be smart. You have to use your ears for the rest of your life...listen to the advice about protecting them.

Yet another voice for sane volumes. At best, tinnitus is permanent irritant, and decreased hearing acuity -- to say nothing of impairment -- sucks. Blast phones (or speakers) and you'll pay a piper (that you won't even be able to hear very well) sooner or later. Trust us on this. Seriously. Wish I'd listened to my old man, and I'm pretty lucky.

Be well,

John

There seems to be a ton of those newer Monster Beats headphones on sale(used maybe)at a fraction of the price. They're supposed to be good at pounding bass.

I haven't heard them, and don't plan to. I'm in the save your ears group! I use Sennheiser at real low volumes, and I'm happy, and also want to stay that way.

Are you going to be cool looking and happy with hearing aids in the future from doing this? Everyone one will get tired of trying to talk to you after you damage your ears. It happens everyday.

Well...Thank you everyone for your HONEST veiwpoints and suggestions! I am just trying to come up with a few options to enjoy "rockin' out" at home (without speakers cranking)so my wife doesn't keep screaming...."TURN THAT CRAP DOWN!" :)
But, as many advised, I WILL keep in mind that I protect my eardrums before I lose THOSE!
