Unfortunately, it depends on headphones. I listen to about 3/4 of the way with my hd380 on my cellphone. on the computer, I set my Audio interface to the middle and switch back and forth on whatever music player I'm using.
>>
>>65061413
dont go over 70%
if its too loud to hear, don't listen
>>
>>65061413
about 115-120dB for the loudest frequency

Around pic related usually works for me. A good pair of headphones doesn't require higher.
I use akg k240

>>65061489
should I just not listen to music in my very loud 3 hours commute? because I'd rather turn deaf
>>
>>65061525
same here actually, though it depends on the headphones, some are louder/quieter than others.
>>
>>65061413
laptop? 50%
iphone? 80-90%

I'm deaf, I have my older brother and his shitty music to thank for that

You people are trash, listen on full while traveling anywhere

At a comfortable level

>>65061525
i use beyerdynamic dt770 pro 250 ohms...those fuckers suck up a huge load of energy from the jack. the sound is worth it, but without a proper preamp i get max 100db....still the sound is awesome even when at 70db, since those fuckers mute everything around you.

Pretty much a similar level. I've turned it down slightly here because I'm about to sleep.

>>65062243
That music is not appropriate for your situation.
>>
i'm currently at 6 bars on my macbook pro with headphones
>>
I have an iPod nano (4th generation I think?) and I read that keeping it (and Apple stuff generally, I think) at half the max volume or less won't damage hearing. So out of the fifteen volume thingies it has, I always keep it locked at seven. I usually listen quieter than that, but my quietest tracks can still be heard if I turn it up until it locks.

I hope all of you jump out a fucking window

>>65061413
it depends on the headphones

the ones i use are always at 100% and even then its often not loud enough
>>
Usually as loud as it can go without it hurting.
>>
if im using headphones, i usually listen full-blast. I mean, its not recommended and I'm pretty sure I'm going deaf in my left ear, but hey. mixing tho
>>
Phone anywhere from about 65-75

Computer 12-18/100

On a speaker crazy loud

It varies greatly by album, some are mastered louder than others.
Gas's Zauberberg, for example, is one of my favorite albums but I always listen to it at full volume and it's still sometimes not loud enough.
Meanwhile a lot of metal shreds my ears if I listen to it past around 60%.

My rule of thumb is to play it loud enough to make out all the details and get a rich sound, but not loud enough that it's painful or gets muted after a few minutes. Common sense will save you, I don't know how people can blast music so loud that you can hear it blaring from their earbuds, especially with how brickwalled most modern stuff is
>>
40% I find the louder it is the less I'm focusing on it
>>
>>65061535
I recommend earplugs rather than music. If the commute is loud, then you should lower the volume rather than creating even more sound over it. If you continue this habit, you will regret it.

But then you start hearing a high tone sometimes or if you talk with someone else you hear like too deep.

On my ipod I never go more than halfway. If my surrounds are intrusive enough that I have to go louder I won't listen.
When I'm on my own and it's quiet I typically have around 5%.

I love Android but JESUS iOS looks so fucking sexy. How did they do it?
>>
I listen at 60-70% on my earphones when on the phone because the iPhone earphones leak like crazy.

When I'm at home and using my headphones I listen at 100% because I'm not a fucking pussy.

Icons are from the Veexillium theme, CCSettings and CClean for changing layout/design of the control centre and the music part is Bragi.

Of course, you'll need a jailbroken iPhone to achieve all this.
