What pitch of tinnitus do you have?

[@machopiggies]

2.5kHz

[@ChadHanneman]

approx 4,000 Hz

[@Sherdelune]

Around 5000 give or take.

[@ethanroberson9132]

Idk mine just sounds like static

[@TheMrPastry]

Around 7,000 hz over 9,000 I don't hear anything - 64 y.o. - Have had 2 hearing tests over the past 16 months. Have also been dealing with persistent ear infection for several months. I used to hear the ringing for a few hours to a day or two after loud sound exposure. In 2013 after a concert in an arena the ringing became permanent, along with dizziness the day after the concert.

[@deandeo0369]

My tinnitus is caused by my insomnia and my hearing is perfect so how would hearing aids help someone like me.

[@Twong-wq3fh]

Very helpful im in the process of getting new hearing aids.

[@stephenmandy5101]

Hi, I could hear the tone until 2.9khz on my head phones and through the speakers to 4.8 . I think my tinnitus is at a higher frequency. I am going through your you tubes as I have had an audio test and have a low and mid range hearing loss and a severe hearing loss at higher frequencies. Thanks for some great explanations and I am finding them very helpful. I live in Bredasdorp South Africa, and 74 years old. This is my second comment.

[@HearingTracker]

Enjoy!

[@stephenmandy5101]

It just dawn on me. My hearing is Severe Loss at frequencies above 4khz. Therefore my hearing has bad at the higher frequencies therefore i can hear these tones. Probably nothing wrong with Headphones etc.

[@stephenmandy5101]

[@HearingTracker]

Hey Stephen, thank you for reaching out! Glad to be of service. Make sure you subscribe to stay up to date with my reviews. I've got to visit SA at some point, everyone raves about it! Matthew

[@ninav265]

Hi, I could hear until 8500-9000Hz, but my Tinnitus sounds like noise at 60-100 Hz. Important: I got my Tinnitus in 2 weeks after getting Audio-test with Miracle-Ear. Before I did not have any problems with hearing and only want to check just in case, it was free and close to my home. Now I am frustrated and don't know what to do and whom to complain to. I found that some people got the same after hearing test. Can you give any advice? Thank you for help.

[@fermingh]

Mine is about 9000hz, mostly right sided but it can fluctuate and also appears sometimes on my left ear. My tinnitus is also paired with sound distortion. I suffered 3 years ago some kind of inner ear accident that took out my right ear hearing capacity from 6000hz upwards. It was not an external accident, i was working in the office. The next day tinnitus appeared and although i was treated pretty quickly with chorticoids, hearing loss has stablished. I am suffering now from left hearing loss from 12kzh upwards but not as severe. First year was a nightmare, but with hearing aids brain begins to "settle" and tinnitus begins not to take your attention so much.

[@HearingTracker]

Hey Fermingh, I'm really sorry to hear your story. Thank you for sharing your experiences. I do hope that you are finding ways to cope. Matthew

[@gatsby6815]

I had intensive cognitive behavioral therapy to train my brain to ignore or put aside the tinnitus as normal sounds. I struggle still when I get tired, or ill. Mornings are tough until I get my brain in gear, so to speak. There is a program I use called Better Sleep which has a tremendous number of sounds that you can choose from and blend together. Nature sounds like rain, surf and wind are soothing and gets me through some difficult patches. I have the Oticon More 1 hearing aids.

[@adrianadarcangeli4096]

I like very much the sound of the calm see and the crickets at night before sleeping. The sound of cicadas corresponds almost completely to the white noise I hear in my head

[@frankstulens1398]

Tinitus around 5 kHz, hear loss due to otosclerosis. I had an operation on 1 ear and hear loss is better but probably not sufficient to move on without hear aid.

[@adrianadarcangeli4096]

yes, the measure of tinnitus was between 8 and 9,9 hz

[@WaynoGur]

I have Widex Evoke. I didn't like the ping dingy from the fractal tones. My audiologist instead gave me white noise. That works. The Android Atmosphere app is very good at creating sounds to distract from tinnitus.

[@HearingTracker]

Some great tips there Wayno, thank you for sharing with anyone reading the comments! Matthew

[@karenneave5218]

8500 normally, but 4500 will ‘pop’ in sometimes, and then back to normal. And lower will ‘pop’ in and then back to normal. Is that normal? 😅

[@demetrisdemetrious8702]

And what kind of price range are these hearing aids for Tinitus? Thanks

[@HearingTracker]

Hi Demetris, that all depends on your audiologist. Matthew

[@Zakaria_Ahmed_]

12k its good or bad? Please reply me

[@pullman5250]

Can crickets be available in these hearing aids . That’s the best for my tinnitus

[@HearingTracker]

Hey Pullman, yes but only if you're streaming them. I hope this helps, Matthew

[@meric12131415]

Oh yeah mine's definitely in the 12 to 13k Hz range it sounds like a flashbang that's the best way to describe it

[@chrislow123]

Mine is around 600-700 and is a result of hearing loss and Menieres Disease. It comes and goes. My hearing fluctuates at the moment...would a hearing aid work still?

[@HearingTracker]

Hi Chris! It's 100% worth trying for both your hearing and tinnitus! Matthew

[@chrislow123]

@@HearingTracker how would this work with my fluctuating hearing? Some days I’m practically deaf, other days everything seems overly loud.

[@HearingTracker]

@@chrislow123 I have a patients that I manage with a volume control / multiple programs

[@tomekz28]

Between 9-12k hearing starts to drop gradually and then, cuts off 12k mark. Thats where the tininitus starts. Any aid that delivers relief at this frequency?

[@MagnusRender]

I'm in a similar boat. In the video, the aids seem to stop supporting anything above 8,5k.

[@StrixTechnica]

My tinnitus is constant but at multiple frequencies, with perceptible dips at around 5.5, 7.5, 13.5 and 17.5kHz† (allowing for extra gain required to compensate for age-related hearing loss - I'm in my forties - and, possibly, frequency response of my headphone audio amp). But, thanks to yt's compression algorithm, I also noticed significant harmonic distortion above 5kHz, which I found quite distracting. Still, it's a good test within the limits of what is possible on a platform like this.

[@fwood1231]

3500 to 4500. My hearing aids are due to arrive next week. I couldn’t hear anything above about 5000 hz.

[@Ipbulldog]

1800, 3200, hole from 5K to 6K, and a much higher frequency that my ears can no longer hear. ~10K. (Perhaps the frequency of tube TV fly back transformers.) it’s a multi frequency, constant hiss.

[@HearingTracker]

I wonder if its the same listening on headphones? Worth a try perhaps? Matthew

[@davidhuez7027]

I wish we had more control over the hearing aids without having to go in for every adjustment and feature activation.

[@HearingTracker]

Hi David, it's a fair point. Do you mean over the tinnitus features or over the hearing aid features? Matthew

[@donnas8408]

They will in time this is why the Hearing Aid Maskers cost so much because half the money is going to the audiologist. The truth is with smart phones, and how savvy everyone’s becoming through the years using smart phones as we all know an app already comes with whatever Hearing Aid Masker you choose they could easily the technicians design it where you program everything and anything you need through app on the phone and save three to $4000 paying an audiologist for two office visits maybe three tops

[@Horselackey]

Well I could begin to hear at 127 a tone ( my husband who has good hearing couldn’t hear as low or high as me, go figure, he aced the hearing tests 🤨). I think mine is around upper 5000-6000+ , and occasionally I heard “ something” cut in and out in the over 1400 hen again at 1800.

[@HearingTracker]

Hey Horse! Thanks for sharing! Have a super day, Matthew

[@user-tn7up4mg7w]

If i cant hear above 8,000Hz and my Tinnitus is above this level how will my brain hear any sound treatment ?

[@HearingTracker]

Hey there, sound treatment could cover the whole frequency range, with the hearing that you do have and it should still provide some relief. Matthew

[@swedishbob_7315]

3000 is where my tinnitus and the sound matched

[@HearingTracker]

Thanks for sharing Bob! Matthew

[@patriciaarmstrong246]

around 2000

[@carlhahn3851]

4 and 8 KHz approximately

[@deandeo0369]

6000 Hz but mine fluctuates up-and-down, and it’s different every day. It all depends on the quality of sleep I get.

[@deandeo0369]

My tinnitus goes away while showering or swimming under water. I have to use crickets sound therapy to calm my tinnitus down. No other sound therapy works for me only the crickets. 🤯

[@KennethHall-pb7pr]

2.860

[@HearingTracker]

That is very specific Kenneth! I hope you're on top of it! Matthew

[@paulmccann131]
