It's a miracle I don't have tinnitus, really. I went to very loud clubs for a long time. Nowadays in my mid30s I haven't been to clubs or concerts for a couple of years now. @I-Phone. I don't have one so I don't know bout the headphones of it but I had an i-Pod for a while and back then I thought the headphones of them were very good, but that was misleading, they were just quite loud. I bought a sony digital walkman two years ago and the headphones of it are so much better, sound quality wise, they also kill much of the surrounding noise though they are just in-ear ones.
