[V8] 10' subs installed (NAC)

[dsaad at icehouse.net]

nobody wants to nag...

but as you can see, many of us were unaware or un-concerned about hearing 
damage. I had no idea a 75 watt amp (35 per channel) and four speakers that 
would be considered a joke today would do the damage they did.
I pretty much live with a fire alarm in my head 24/7 (tinitus). There is no 
such thing as quiet time. Lucky for me I have a great wife who lets me be 
cranky sometimes.

I am 45 btw, and this has been going on for a good 10 years. I worked as a 
stereo installer in high school. It took a few years before I noticed anything.
While my situation could actually be genetic or have some other cause totally 
unrelated to loud stereos, (I used play with guns too) it is just plain silly 
to regularly subject yourself to something that is guarenteed to hurt you.
