The problem is, repeating the article and the GP, that it can not be abused.

Your computer was defective, and Dell is refusing to comply with the warranty. It's impossible for VLC to harm the speakers on a computer that is not defective.

Ok, I like it being hard to set volume bigger than 100% at mplayer, it'll probably be a nice feature at VLC. But that's only because I don't like clipping, not because of any hardware issue.
