Incredible improvement in sound quality

@falconquest Thanks for clarifying. There are multiple causes of tinnitus. I have a friend who developed hearing loss and tinnitus after taking an antidepressant - a known side effect.

Mine was caused by being too close to a speaker array in a night club in London in the late 90's. Mine is an ear problem. Some of the "hairs" in the cochlea are damaged. The tones I hear are around but not exactly the frequencies that are damaged. 

I'm aware of a possible cure, that involved a neuro-stimulator implanted near the vegas nerve that can be programmed to "cancel" the frequencies that you hear constantly. Unfortunately for me/us, that technology is being focused on sleep apnea - partially because there is already significant reimbursement for the procedure here in the US and of course because people don't die from tinnitus unless self-inflicted.

mmmm....Taunto thinks @kota1 smoke no peace pipe with @falconquest  tonight...  😏

I like my Phonex, but think it's drawing near to upgrade...

*L*  Instead of chasing the latest in audio tech, I'll pursue some 'on board' audio tech....

....wonder if there's a wearable sub yet.....😎 

@kota1 Well, you’re absolutely right of course but nothing wrong with marrying up eh? 😉 Actually she completed her program well after we were married. I would not recommend it for any married couple because it turns out to be grueling for both. “Hey, there’s some live music at…..sorry, I have a 25 page paper due.”  And that goes on and on. If you want an advanced degree do it when you’re young! 

I've heard that if you just squeeze in a few drops of high quality record-cleaning solution and vacuum it out ....
