Did he buy that house on purpose or by chance? I can see myself doing that

maybe your eardrums are a bit dryer during the winter. If they were a little more moist, they might flex more and dampen the ringing sound. There is an over the counter eardrop that reduces the ringing sound. I used it once and it worked ok. RingRelief

Go Navy

I tried ring relief, nothing yet. Been a few days. It is dry here in jerey but my office has a humidifier in there for my guitars. I'm in there a lot. In essence I'm fucked.
Thanks for the advice. I appreciate it

I lost one ear to my M16 and the other to Rock and Roll. jk Just looked it up. Sounds pretty bad. No pun intended. I do get high pitched ringing from time to time but it goes away pretty quick. Like a grenade went off by you in Call of Duty.

I have it but it doesn't bother me much. I notice it only when I'm trying to sleep and it can be a little distracting but otherwise it doesn't bother me at all.

The thing is, I know exactly when and where I got it. I was at a shitty concert on crescent street in downtown Montreal about 3 years ago. The idiots behind the console were overdriving the speakers and I could hear it "clipping" and causing some serious pain. I don't know if clipping causes damage but I think this is when it happened.

Clipping does not cause anything in the listener. Clipping is a feature of signal processors that know when they are being pushed too hard. All it is is cutting off part of the dynamic range to save the speakers. A system which is being driven wrong can be made to clip while not actually all that loud. Conversely, if a system is very good, and being driven well it well not clip at incredible volumes. I have been in rooms with systems so loud that my eyeballs were compressing with the bass, and there was no clipping.

That wasn't the only reason he bought the place but it was a factor. He really likes it but pays a lot in flood insurance.

I had no idea it is affecting such large % of the population. I guess most people don't tend to talk a lot about it.

I got it for years, now. Same with my mom. In both cases it was a side effect antibiotics. Yes, it's very common to get tinnitus from antibiotics and it's incurable. Soemtimes my ears hear noises like standing next to a running jet engine.

Wow even after the antibiotics are done? That's odd. I know some mess cause it when you're on them. That's bizarre. I'm sorry

100 busted eardrums...:Oh crap

I am only 25 and mine is absolutely absurd... Whenever I am in a room with complete silence it is almost unbearable at times. Sounds like a medium pitch (but still high) loud tone bouncing off the walls... :(
No secret where mine derives from though, I grew up at a bracket racing dragstrip & never used ear protection - then from 17-21 i threw 100-110 massive edm events (mostly in midwest) where we would have a minimum 120-half a million watts of sound inside these venues - and again I never used any ear protection. The worse part about that was the thousands of people every night that come up and scream something into your ears over top the loud music... haha It only compounded the problem in my case i think because I am damn near deaf now :(

wear your ear protection kids ;)

Maybe the best cure is to turn the music up even louder. :(

I usually run a fan at night...

I wanted to try whitenoise thing,but buying a special unit for that seemed like overkill.
So i was wondering,how perhaps it could be something on youtube so i found this:

and somehow i do feel better.Now is that real thing or just some placebo effect,time will show :)
