i was listening to music on my w800i with hpm70 , and after about 15 mins my ear's started stinging inside so i took them out and waited about 5 hourse then plugged them in again on aroud 40% wlume and could bareley hear anything , before i coudl hear the music at 40% volume loud and clear , my eardrum's will probably heal overnight , but i think over time if i kept listening with my hpm70 earphone's , my ears might one day not heal , and later in life become partially deaf ! |

it's ok if you listen maybe once every 3 days , but if i listen everyday for exactly 20minutes on the "normal" equalizer setting at 40% to 60% , or 4 bars or 6 bars volume it starts hurting , i would suggest to people to only use them once every 3 days for 30 mins at about 50% if you need to , but never listen to them all the time , i can noticce the damage its done , but its already healing and i can hear better already but after time i can see this really damaging your hearing  |

get them they are good sound qaulity but just dont use the as much as they are closer to the eardrum than most headphones , and have "closed" sound so no where for the sound to escape , just use them every 3 days for a short time at low volume and you should be fine |

I don't think the HPM-70 has some magic power that damage ur ears, I have no problems at all and i listen at least 2 hours every day.
All professional earbuds (IE shure's) have an in-ear design, they all are closed from the outside and I never heard of the problem u got...

Ik heb ze nu bijna 2 maanden denk ik... ze vallen helemaal niet uit je oren, je krijgt er ook 3 verschillende groottes oordopjes bij dus die vallen er echt niet uit...
Misschien heeft je vriend een standaart K750 headset? Die vallen er echt om de 10 seconden uit |

how old are you , if you are under 40 yrs if you lower the volume to 40% now you will bearley hear it beacuse of you listening at it too high which vibrate's the eardrum too much and damages it , for your own health i sujest lowering the volume |

I agree with Mart89.
I use Ultimate Ears and Etymotic's which are professional in ear monitors (or headphones). They shut out about 98% of all external noise and they do not damage your ears and I use them every day. Have them in my ears right now. They key is common sense with usage.
Common sense + reasonable volume levels = non hearing damage.
This is just like the iPod suit. If it is too loud then turn it down.

N82(YES), iPhone 3G, Shure es530, Nikon D300, more stuff. No more SE stuff, why am I still here? |

I listen to it almost 4 hours everyday at 4 bars. If you need more than 4bars, then there is something else wrong with your ears. |
