@Jerg
I tried to find a good spl app for my iPhone, and I have found something that seem reasonable, measuring average values. The values I get for 25, +12dB on the e17 with the HE-500 using the song you posted is 85-90 dB on the louder passages. Else 80-85dB.
Actually, I tend to believe that measurements are correct. Even cut out a piece of cardboard I could put the mic end of my iPhone into, then covering the cup with the cardboard while measuring.
So, I tend to believe you listen slightly too loud, Jerg.
