Cause of Tinnitus
Acoustic trauma - Repeated gun blasts
I just downloaded the Tinnitus pro app on my iPhone, and I have trouble finding the frequency for my tinnitus (kettle like when finger in ear; high pitched tone when I yawn). Honestly it could be somewhere between 4k and 8k.

I did however, find SIGNIFICANT relief from using the notching mechanism!!! It seems that my hearing is distorted around the 2k mark (+-100). When I notch 2k; I can listen to songs clearly!!! It is incredible to be able to listen to music and not have to worry about distorted hearing!

I am wondering if there are hearing aids that could possibly notch every day sounds? To date I have never tried hearing aids.
