Tinnitus

@handymann  have you been examined by an ENT? Ever had a hearing test by an audiologist?
I'm glad I did since they were able to reduce my tinnitus episodes.

The Mayo is always the best reference. I suffer from tinnitus. Could the disorder you're thinking of be Meniere's disease?
 The dental related cause is TMJ. I was checked for both, mine was caused by a virus.
 

My hyperacusis and tinnitus is fairly well controlled now after years of suffering. 
Hyperacusis is a sensitivity to high frequencies that can result in pain. It took a very long time to put together an audio rig where music is presented in a realistic and organic manner. 

@teo_ audio, thanks for the comments.
I now have a system that is easy on the ears; it’s extended but smooth. My system is all tubes. For my hearing issues I started at the source with a NOS DAC and reclocker. Found some Silent Source ICs (looking for their speaker cables), and purchased a High Fidelity CT-2 S/PDIF. Speakers are now Gibbon Super 8’s.
Next, I treated vibration in my rack and components. Amazing how important this is.

This has helped the high frequency pain issue. When I have a tinnitus event, it interrupts my listening session. The funny part is every time it presents I look around the house for the cause of the ringing, but it’s in my head.
