If it's something cool like Metallica, then fine. If it's drum 'n' base then you need to listen to that shite in a sound proof room.

These days though I prefer a bit of Dire Straits @ meduim volume 

you are sounding older than me steve the louder the better ps on my 2.0 i had a saying on the front heavy metal rules ha ha

Whoop someone agrees with me

depends on the kind of music and mood..
 
long years ago when I was young (around 20) I had hand built amplifiers and speakers (I built them and their crossovers-they were huge).. 
 
the bass sound was shaking the apartment , and obviously neighbours didnt like metallica and the likes.. 
 
when I moved (married-first time )I was forced not to use them. the new home had walls which were too tiny and even a fart can pass 2 blocks   and I was fed up police knocking the door frequently (20 years ago)
 
anyway, my ex wife take the whole set (was really an expensive one) and it took years for me to bring it together.. and its all gone..   looking on the bright side one problem solved with neighbours
 
now generally I use my sony earphones ..  the miniset kenwood (which I bought later) is just a fraction of what I had in the past.. but I dont bother buying stronger ones.. 
 
now rarely I open the volume (only in day time) and even this can be heard from the end of street
 
also age changes your music preferences.. and some styles really not suitable for high volumes..
 
other than that , I dont like high volumes in car also as I cant hear the engine noise..

i dont want to hear engine noise

Id prefer my music over engine noise

Dance/Drum'n'Bass/Hiphop and all the other sh*te that are just random hoots, beeps, whistles, thuds and thumps played loud is ultimate Chav !!

Not too loud, so I can continue to hear my music into old age. 

But sometimes after a few beers it just has to be done, hit the loud button.

Well I don't think it's chavey. However you do get some funny looks when you've got something like Mr Bluesky by ELO blasting out 

well if the passers by don't like it they can always put there fingers in their ears.i crank it up now & again but if youv'e got it flaunt it i say

I do like the "wobbly" feeling that a solid bassline produces on the body, although by all accounts it's not actually that good for you.

I used to have a pair of Paradigm PS1000's in the living room that produced what can only be described as "house destroying bass" (IIRC I gave Kevin Wood a demo when he was over).
They shifted enough air that you could feel your eyelashes fluttering if you sat in the right spot and played the right tunes (mainly 80's dancehall reggae from the likes of Saxon, King Tubby, etc), and I could induce physical vomiting in our neighbour when he sat down for a go (although I suspect he was overly sensitive to low frequencies because nobody else suffered to that degree).

I regret getting rid of them now because I haven't found anything that can match their performance for the price I paid (£600 each), and they are no longer available in the UK to buy new

Suprised you don't end up with bruised kidneys with them buggers

Suprised you don't end up with bruised kidneys with them buggers 

The only time I was in danger of physical injury was if I cranked them up while the missus was in
