I too have very mild tinnitus in my right ear, again a high-pitched whistle at low volume. And, like you it, doesn't bother me either.Originally Posted by jandl100
Interesting thread, well resurrected!
I have very mild occasional tinnitus. High pitched whistle at low volume. It doesn't bother me at all, thankfully.
An audiophile friend of mine has quite severe hearing loss in one ear, but I am totally confident that his audiophile credentials aren't affected in any significant way - he still hears the changes wrought by differing components and setups. And he still enjoys his hifi and his music.
It's quite amazing what the brain can make allowances for.
I am of an age where age related upper frequency hearing loss is having an effect: I can't hear pure tones above 10kHz, yet I can hear if those overtones are missing.
I wrote about it here.
