just wondering if any of you have noticed hearing loss from your high end audio systems? (It is inevitable that you will.)

Yep...i just got another system put in my car 6 12' jl W3v2's in my car the day i got em it hurt like hell to listen, but a day later and it don't hurt no more. Guess its cause i can't hear as well now, thats what a 155db+ system will do

heh I was hitting over 150dB with two twelves (much smaller car) and I've been doing this stuff for over a decade, professionally, too. I've always been careful not to abuse my hearing though, and still have great ears.
The one thing that is still good.. haha wish my eyes were still that good too

Nope, I have had little change in my hearing in the last 10 years. I get my hearing tested every year from this company that comes out to monitor hearing conservation & it's been the same for the last 10 years. Just remember that it's not the basss that impairs your hearing........ rather the high frequencies.
