I have had tinnitus in my left ear as long as I can remember. Actually it was quite a while before I realized that wasn’t normal - I thought everyone must hear that high frequency whine. Most of the time I don’t even notice it, because I have always been used to it. It has never interfered with my enjoyment of high-end audio.
Anyone with tinnitus or hearing loss who is into "high-end" audio?
Over the last few years I have developed tinnitus and also have some hearing issues. I am a long time music and audio fanatic. Years ago I built my own Hafler amp. Before that I had a great AR system. Presently, I have, what I believe, is a pretty nice system in a dedicated listening room (about 60,000.00). My question is if there are others of you out there in similar situations concerning your hearing issues as they relate to your love and reproduction of great sounding music? What are your experiences? Have you found anything that helps and do you have any advice? I would venture to say that we all experience some degree of hearing loss, or hearing anomalies as we age...whether we realize it or not. Thanks, Jim
