Background: Am in NYC and take the subway every day. Couldn’t really hear the music so whenever I’m in the train, I always turn it up to the max volume. FWIW, I use my Airpods. Been doing some research and just realized how harmful this is. I’ve set my phone to limit it to the lowest level at 75 dB … and I can barely hear the music. I mean I hear it but I can’t feel the music: the bass, the instruments, the reverb. Do I just accept this limit and deal with the subway noises forever? Feels like it’s a lose-lose situation either way because I’m sure the subway noises themselves are audibly louder and therefore are causing issues as well
Okay, since you are using AirPods 3rd gen, you have Spatial Audio and spatialize stereo, you want to turn it on, it adds a slight bass boost, and that will make you “feel it” more

Yikes. Airpods are TERRIBLE in loud environments.
Can u tell me how much db is 25 to 35% volume on Airpods?

Apple’s non seal designs have been ruining people’s hearing for decades I swear
