Whats Too Loud?(Danger Of Blowing Speakers?)

[Intamin]

-30 to -25 should be fine, assuming it's calibrated. Generally, if it's hurting your ears, it's too loud. When you do calibrate your system (if you haven't), 0 is supposed to be reference level, but that is entirely too loud for even me. Another way to tell is if you hear your speakers start distorting or popping, or you can also pick up an spl meter from radioshack and check out how loud it actually is.
