Incredible improvement in sound quality
Ok, I am an old fart with a stereo. But my system sounds so much better tonight. Why? I went to my doctor today, as I do every six months (one of my favorite people)… and he noticed that one ear had a lot of wax. So, he had his nurse use a warm water irrigation device to clear it. Wow.
I use some drops, and work to keep my ear canals clear. But, for some reason I was not able to clear my right ear.
So, wow. My system sounds so much better. Sometimes you just need a professional. Although technically you can buy these devices for a couple hundred on line. You need to realize you need to use it.
3 reasons to leave earwax alone interesting harvard article I had bookmarked. My Grandfather had the same problem @ghdprentice The solution was krill oil or some other sources of omega-3s plus drink more water. As you get older, you require slightly more water each day. Doing both will prevent excessive earwax buildup and improve overall circulation; especially to the ears. |
Thanks. Do you put the krill oil in your ear, or ingest it? I take an omega supplement.
The water thing makes sense. No to Qtips… absolutely, if you have ear wax… they just push it in… not a good thing.
I bought an orthoscopic camera for my ears last year… I am thinking the late winter is a problem for me. It is a camera and light… with a small spoon to scoop out wax. The display is your iPhone… so, you see what you are doing. While I cannot recommend the spoon… being able to look into your ear, it is really interesting. You can see the long cannel and wax… all the little hairs. So, I understand the anatomy now. |
Try vibrating the wax out next time: first move both speakers so they are 24 inches apart, then turn the drivers to face each other, place your head in the "sweet spot" between the speakers, turn volume to "11", stay in that position until your ear wax melts or your nose bleeds, whichever comes first. 😁 |
Just take a spoonful of it a day or whatever it says on bottle. You’ve got a great sense of humour!!! perhaps that very same test methodology would help some ASR veterans and serfs of @amir_asr @kenjit to hear the very real differences in audio gear that was designed for the same purpose...like headphone amps, integrated amps, power amps etc. it can’t just be "audibly transparent." Else you have lost most of your hearing and only hear the lower midrange frequencies. |
