how loud can you turn the volume up to until you can possibly cause damage to the speakers?

The speakers at full volume have a little distortion but I don't believe they are suffering any damage.

Answer contains more info then requested: If you are going to seriously test speakers, do so while system is still on warranty. Adjusting back, front and center speakers, is critical in regards to getting the best sound. I indicated my front speakers were twice as far from me, so that the sound coming from them would be louder. Sometimes the surround sound aspect can be overwhelming. Yes, it is possibly to damage speakers due to volume level. More so by maintaining speakers at a loud volume. I do not think you will damage them if you want increased sound just for a movie, or party, etc. However, and probably the most wise thing I can say. I am not an expert, and have no idea what I am talking about. Jusdt trying to use what limited common sense I have.

Should be about 6 to 8 hours depends what's playing trough the speaker and at what volume.

If the volume turns up from 0 to 2 for moderate listening, it won't bother person next to u. Hope that helps.

Yes! We use them in the dinning room and the kitchen, both large rooms, and we have yet to turn to volume all the way up. Volume can be controlled from both the computer and on the speaker itself. I got close to maximum volume once, and it bordered on being painful. Inside I had to manipulate the speakers to get the best stereo separation. You will have to do the same outside as well.

Sorry Pat, but the answer is no. I bought this unit for the same reason and have to turn the volume way up. Good thing we have no neighbors close by.

Since I haven't used the speakers outside, my answer is hypothetical. I filled a kitchen/family room with nice sound, and the volume was around 50%. It obviously had more muscle than I used. Hope this helps.

You can adjust both the volume on your device and the volume on the speakers. Of course you will be limited by the volume you set on the speakers...

You can adjust the volume on the unit. The instructions are on a sticker attached to the packaging because they left them off the instruction sheet.Your player determines the maximum volume, though.

The way you would bypass that is to leave the volume on the speakers all the way up and then just adjust it on your device.

Yes, to a point. You can turn different sets of speakers on and off but you cannot adjust volume indepently.

Use the wattage until sound gets distorted or unpleasant. Cranking them up too high will definitely blow them.

Speaker is quite loud, I would never have the need to turn it all the way up. Personally, I think it's a great buy. Hope this helps.

The volume on mine has been fine! I would think anything would be hard to hear if you have the window down!

Make sure the pink noise is a little below listening volume when you burn it in. You don't want to damage the drivers.

Yes. You can increase and decrease the volume. It sounds like shhhh shhhh shhh. It's effective.

You want to look at dB SPL output...I saw a spec sheet saying that these produce 108 dB SPL compared to the next model up which produces 115 which would be dangerous as 112 dB SPL is the level at which permanent hearing damage occurs. 108 dB SPL (sound pressure level, or how we hear volume) should be enough as it is 5 times the SPL of ambient room noise. (every increase of 6 dB doubles the intensity) Electronic specs really have to do with matching the amplifier to the speaker (in this case the small ones in the headphones) hope this helps some. btw I am not Kevin I'm using his login now.

There is a bass adjust knob, I would assume you could adjust it accordingly to not disturb them
