What Hearing Loss?

Anyone that has seen my desk (or pictures of it) has seen the double stereo speaker stack on either side of my monitor...not HUGE, necessarily, but it's a good two, maybe two-and-a-half feet of speaker, angled towards my chair, right about at arm's reach distance.

What this means its that games and MP3's sound great (all this is run from a SoundBlaster X-Gamer 5.1 sound card through my stereo) - deep rumbling bass, high keening treble, explosions that blow your hair back, screams of the dying and twisting metal like nails on the chalkboard of your brain.

On the other hand, it's always funny if I've been siting here a while, and I get up to go the kitchen...and I realize how quiet everythign else is...and then I realize how loud I had everything.
