A bizzare query for you all  :) I like playing my CDs loud in my i30 but I am wondering how much the speakers can take. Been playing "Beat it" at volume 20 today and it sounds great. But a lot of volume numbers to ........  Any thoughts on what it can take? I have the bass set at max of course. And of course I am thoughtful and do not annoy my neighbours!!!

I played Drum 'n Base with volume max. Not a nice sound but funny :p I don't think they wel be damaged as there normally should be safety

hey! i used to always drive my i30 speakers on max with bass on max before. but now i've thrown in a JL sub but have dropped the bass to 2. still run all the speakers on full volume for like 2 years and still haven't ran into any burning smells or faulty speakers.

My bass level is on about 75%. The maximum volume level I listen to never usually exceeds 6, it usually hangs about 4-5.

I spent too much time as a youngster in mosh pits so now my ears have no response above 12K and my knees are getting arthritic...

Heh, mid and bass on mine set to -8. And I just have the SLX model.

Seriously, it's too much set near 0!!!
