That sounds like one hell of a soundsystem - your ears must be absolutly minced after that !

[tekki]

Just hoping you were wearing earplugs midifidler!

earplugs are for the weak! lukily dubstep isnt too heavy on the highend lol

ive done my years worth of circles and squares hehe

well it´s not the highs that will destroy ur ears (highs are just more pain for ur ears) but at the end it´s deep bass what will cause ur ears a lot of problems....

i cant claim to actually know this but i thought that the bass at the level we listen to was too low for the eardrums and is fact sensed by the auricle? (a chamber in the heart) and thats why deaf people can still "hear" very low noises

I really tend to be careful when my ears are concerned...

Gigs, concerts and loud noise are greated by my earplugs.

I found it pretty interesting that my ears were actually not sore afterwards.

Normally its that high end distortion & ringing that gives me sore ears but there was not distortion at all for the dubstep,

Noisia however....

Yups, blame it on the dutchies.

Bass is what minces your ears in the longterm - not being able to hear the highend well. Many dj's eardrums will ever be the same again after mixing drum and bass.
