Is it just me or

It doesn't sound good. Why don't we tax these overpowered base units for the sound pollution.

I don't like it all. Especially when I can feel it vibrating in my chest.

yes op

its the low almost inaudible hum that gets me, I would prefer music or noise I can hear...

fans as well, a bathroom fan can get me so annoyed I cant sleep.

but low noises, vibrations through walls, can irritate me to the point of crying out in sheer anger.....


aargh ! !!

I don't enjoy the types of music that employ heavy bass as a matter of course, but when it's loud or very close, the thumping vibrations in my chest are very irritating, not to mention the thudding of the noise. I'm very finicky about my music tastes, and there are some, due to their sensory implications, that I really can't stand.

I like really loud clean clear music, loads of bass. I get off on the all encompassing feeling I get, the colours and patterns i see. I really enjoy the feeling of sound pressure waves flowing over my body, seeing and hearing items around the house/vehicle shaking, pulsing or vibrating depending on the frequency. Counting up all the items in the house that have harmonics with whatever tracks I'm playing. I only do this when I'm alone at home, I'm in the basement and the only sound that can be heard outside is the siding vibrating..

My office is essentially a studio, my living room is a full on theater, my vehicles all have systems in them.

I don't blast my bass while I'm driving though, I would rather hear and feel the vehicle instead. I reserve my blasting for sitting in the parking lot while waiting for my Husband to finish shopping, windows up of course, I also park on the outside edges of whatever parking lot I'm in so I can see when he exits the store so i can go pick him up.

Sometimes I cannot handle hearing anything, everything needs to be totally silent. I can't listen to my own favorite music. The sound of my case fans are annoying (I bought the largest computer case with the largest fans so it would be quiet, small fans make more noise), the sound of the analog clocks bothered me so I bought digital ones. I cannot handle visual stimulation at these times either so i am usually in the dark as well.

I hate people that blast the bass in their cars in residential areas, I don't do it out of respect for other people, why can't they do the same? The same goes for Harley's with loud pipes and rigpigs with jacked up diesel trucks making a racket everywhere they go, the police chopper flying low passes over the house...

I have chromesthesia and hypo/hyper sensory issues. I "tune out" to escape everything else. I am trying to control what sensory input I am receiving. Loud music and bass allows me to block all the other stuff I can't filter while feeling good at the same time.

I use Winamp with Milkdrop visualization studio for visual stimulation on top of the visual stimulation I already get from the chromesthesia.

I live in sensory hell.

Only when it's in cars that pass by or right next door (close enough to hear it). I always use headphones for when I listen to music with high bass.
