Turned my Amp to 10 today

[Sauerkraut]

I can't do that with one of my amps. Its a fender super twin reverb... they are wierd amps they only made for about three years. 180 watts of tube power if you have it on full with the boost turned on. Oh and the thing is very very clean even at those volumes.

that's what's so frustrating about it, I just know my Twin sounds killer at 10, but I don't dare touch it.

Ah, live a little. 

You're ears may never forgive you, but you're body otherwise will be loving every second of it.

It's not my ears I worry about, it's the neighborhood.

I've got an Ampeg V-4, it's RIDICULOUSLY loud at 2. Past 3 it doesn't really get much louder, just drives the tubes. Never had it to 10, only about 7 but I felt like my eyes were going to melt. Sounded awesome.

I had my Silverface 100 watt Twin on 7 once outdoors.  I was standing in front of it, and it about knocked me down!

shattered glass all over the house.

Really?

Really?

that's nothing, did you see what it did to his face?

Oh dear!

Maybe when I get a few super-high powered amps, I'll crank them in front of my future girlfriend and she'll turn out looking like the girl in my avatar. Nah, it'll probably just make her

Good way to get a wax job.
Play loud and the wax flies out of your ears.

I have rehearsal room with my band in underground garage in one market place, so every day after 18 there is no living soul in area of few hundred meters around + we are underground.
so it's not a problem to play as loud as we can.

naturally I tried all of my and my friends amps on max volume

fender bassman 100 with 2x12, peavey classic 50, marshall DSL 2000 with 4x12, ampeg VT40, bassman 59 reissue

bassman 100 and marshall were dangerous for your health at max volume 
and regarding sound quality, I must say only bassman 59 and marshall seemed to enjoy max level.
but on this volume levels it is hard to judge sound quality

In the latter days of my last band I played my Marshall TSL60 with almost every knob at ten, constantly.  The preamp volume and gain knobs weren't all the way up, but the master volume and all of the EQ knobs were.  Since then, that's how I play amps.  I open them up as much as I can get away with.

I've turned my Blues Junior all the way up to 12, but never got the balls to push the master volume 

[idiotbear]

I've never turned either of my amps up to the max. It'd fucking hurt.

[Superfuzz]

My ears are already almost fucked up but I never past 2 on my hot rod deluxe at home (BTW I crank all the remaining controls)..except from neighbours problems , the main problem seems to be that concrete walls get resonance in some way..so it sounds very hurting playing past 2.

Is your avatar pic a dead kitty from the massive sound emitted from your amp?
