I don't see his comment on being smart-assed at all. My Bose puts out phenomenal sound at 12-15, anything higher than that is pure overkill/youthful exuberance.

Disclaimer: High-frequency hearing loss from decades of rock/blues guitar in front of a Marshall stack at insane volumes during my younger/dumber days

Yes, I was being a smart-***. There's a lot of truth in the sentiment I was expressing, but at the same time I try not to take things too seriously. I mean really, so what if someone wants to crank their volume? I wouldn't, but to each his own. Ever see those morons driving around with headphones stuck in their ears? Now those people really make me cringe.

LOL ill have to admit i did it once on my recent trip to california. but the road noise was so bad on a certian section of the 5 that i did it as an ear plug moreso than to listen to music. i could still hear the road nice quite a bit though.

I've used my iPod with a set of Shure in-ear headphones while driving the wife's car a few times. The stock radio in that car is lousy compared to the Z. Anyway, I have to agree that it can be dangerous because in-ear monitors isolate you from the outside world unless you have it turned down really low.
