Did I break it?

[fizzy_drink]

I'd just bought new headphones, and plugged them into my Ipod (which for some reason was on MAX volume).

It was about 15secs before I realised...

...the problem was, there was sme quite bassy music playing. :S


So, are they damaged, or is the whole thing a myth?

Luv,

Oms.

How do they sound?

 

[theduck]

may not have done any damage, best thing to do is leave them playing at a 'reasonable' listening volume for a few hours to run them in, if they sound ok when u listen to the, ie no distortion then they are fine.

There's a fair amount of Bass distortion, but that could be down to the equaliser on the Nano.

I'll leave it running for a while, see what happens.

 

[theduck]

plug the headphones into somthing with no equalisation and listen to them, if they still distort would maybe suggest they are broken. If in doubt just take them abck and say they were like it out the packet, it would be almost impossible to tell they have been damaged by the input signal.

 

[fizzy_drink]

Nope, no distortion with EQ off - must be the Equaliser then.

So I guess I got away with it (although it can't have done ANY good).

 

[theduck]

it wont have done anygood, but sounds like it hasnt done any damage

The equaliser on the iPod is s**t. If you enable the bass profile it distorts all the time.
