    I Don't Know How Much More I Can Take

    I feel your pain, for me it was bad in the first year. But now after 8 years I hardly even notice it anymore sometimes. I learned that the most important thing is that you cannot change it, either it will go away or it won't. But for sure you will feel better if you manage to take control of...

    Audio Balance on Android / Google Phones

    Hi! I am trying to get google to add an audio balance slider, so if you have one bad ear, then you can move the stereo image towards the affected ear, so when you are listening to music through headphones you can have the sound more centered in your head rather than louder on one side.(If you...

    Can I Use These Earmuffs in MRI?

    The nurse knew I was coming in for a tinnitus related MRI to rule out AN etc.. They offered my foam plugs and the regular MRI earmuffs on top of them. The sound of the machine itself was not too loud. Most of it is low in pitch. (low pitched noise damages the ear much more slowly than high pitched).

    South Korean Clinic Treatment (Dr. Minbo Shim)

    Apply common sense and you will become sceptic... the before and after treatment audiograms should be performed by different parties with NO affiliation to each other. Otherwise if the same center does it there is a higher risk of conflict of interest

    Massive Improvement in Tinnitus Using Dr. Wilden's Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT)

    Just out of curiosity did Wilden perform BOTH hearing tests? Before and after treatment. If yes then it's worth zero. This charlatan had to leave germany and head to ibiza because he was under pressure from the medical community in germany because of his questionable treatment.

    Hearing Loss

    I just found an old test from 2011 that kind of shows the same problem. http://www.hifi-forum.de/bild/hearing_431075.html but it is now across the board. Yeah but the android ones suck, I asked the devs of the app you mentioned if they will make an android version.

    Hearing Loss

    The left side of document always shows the right ear first. The right ear is the bad T ear. You can see that starting from around 5.5khz it drops off and when reaching the highest frequencies is always about 10 to 20db lower than the left ear. The left ear shows a notch at 6khz which I...

    Hearing Loss

    Hi! So after 7 years of T I figured hearing in the affected ear has diminished. I am in the hospital next week for some tests to rule out any underlying conditions. It is especially annoying that this is only in the T ear. My ENT laughed and commented "anything asysmmetrical pisses off human...

    Any Audiophiles Here?

    Recently got the Bowers & Wilkins P7 Wireless, great headphones. Nice treble extension and imaging. Doesn't the HD700 have a peak somewhere? Never heard them though.
