With having the base too high on my stereo system!?

There's actually quite a few. The two most common would be going deaf and visits from the police due to noise complaints. You could also damage your speakers or stereo system. High volume bass also puts out a lot of vibration, so nearby objects that are not secure can fall and break. If you (or someone close enough) have a heart condition it could trigger a heart attack (this one is a remote possibility). There's other things that can happen too but they are remote and I don't feel like going into that much detail.
ADDED--- who's the jackass that gave me the thumbs down? Do some proper research and you'll see that my statement is true. I found out about this in grade 12 physics.

I can think of a few. You won't win any points with your neighbors having the thumping noise constantly. I know it annoys me. If they're cheap speakers you are apt to blow them out. And it distorts the quality of the sound reproduced. You are unable to make out the other instruments, especially in a classical piece. But as long as it isn't cranked too loud then no, it will not have any effect on the system itself.

Also, if your amplifier can't produce clean base at the levels you set, it can clip the waveform and send high-frequency waves at very high levels into your speakers' tweeters. This can blow out your tweeters, since they are more efficient at translating power to sound than your woofers and you will max out their capacity quickly.
Because the clipping sounds like distortion, and much of today's electronic music actually uses distortion for effects, you may not realize you are clipping the waveforms until it's too late.

Loose screws on your speakers cabinets, and maybe there's a chance that the speaker tears off, and then some fuzz can start to sound, because of the torn paper, and the volume of your speakers would be highly diminished. You can use a compressor - limiter that can help you protect the speakers.

Too much can sometimes be too much to handle - therefore blowing out speakers!

broken china and an angry wife - from the vibrations so strong it rattles stuff off all your shelves.
