I was told by an audiologist at the Mayo Clinic that tinnitus does not go away. It's caused by irreversible damage to the fine hairs in the air that detect sound. If it's only on one side, see your doctor right away. It could be due to something possibly treatable, such as a pressure on a nerve. I use Diane's canal caps, and find them to be great, especially tuning large uprights. With the cabinet open, we get a lot more sound than do pianists. --Cy Shuster-- Boston, MA www.nbss.org Class of '06 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bob Hull" <hullfam5@yahoo.com> To: "College and University Technicians" <caut@ptg.org> Sent: Sunday, October 30, 2005 12:14 AM Subject: Re: [CAUT] Hearing Protection Desirable for Tuning? > The ringing, or tinnitus, has not stopped even though > I am using the plugs regularly.
