Considering it was loud as forget with my volume settings on low, I'd safely call it ear rape.
Played at a perfectly normal sound on my speakers and I didn't change the volume settings at all from what I normally use.People complaining about the volume need to check their sound cards, volume mixer settings and speaker settings
It gets 70 decibels from my speakers at 25%, I'd safely call your sound card stuff.
Headphones are far different from speakers, because they blast directly in to ear holes.
