How much Bass/Volume Can Sony Xb500's take?

[iWonder]

I bought a Pair of these, And i ABSOLUTELY LOVE it. Probably best pair I have ever bought.
Im wondering how much sound abuse these headphones could take, before probably breaking. I love to listen to loud music, LOTS of bass to where i can feel it reverb, And the music I listen to is a wide variety, but mostly DnB ( Drum and Bass).

To be honest, you will probably not get the same effect as at a club or with a pair of speakers with subwoofer, but I am glad you like your headphones.
 
As for the volume, the headphones can likely tolerate volumes higher than the threshold of pain...

Thanks for replying, I have my volume all the way on my laptop, the max it goes
The only downside to the Xb500's would be the sound leakage :/

As far as volume goes, your hearing will give long before the drivers break. Use caution, and take lots of breaks. Once your hearing is damaged, it can never be fixed.
