According to a test conducted by the source below, they max out at 108.3 db, so I guess the claimants are full of shit.

There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!
Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.
- ex. How do I change oil
- ex. How to tie shoes
- ex. Can you cry underwater?
Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!
Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice ๐.

MODERATORS
Doesn't actually mean their eardrums didn't rupture from the airpods, just that under those testing conditions they can't generate the imposed constraint of 130 dB.
And because of the logarithmic nature of decibels, 6 dB louder approximately means twice as loud. So these claimants are saying the airpods reached about 700 times higher volume than they can.
Why do you keep asking the same question over and over?
Absolutely not, they would burst before that. Even big over ears are physically incapable of producing such loud sounds.
Kid probably just stuck some crayons in his ears and now the family wants to get money from apple.
