    I’ve been listening well above recommend levels for years, I’ve done work operating industrial machinery and my hearing tested among the best for my age. Just use hearing protection, and don’t go nuts on the volume.

      Im the same as you. In my 50’s. My hearing is severely damaged, and my right ear whistles like a thousand sex-crazed crickets 24/7.

        Not the same by the sound of it, my hearing is exceptional for my age and career path.

        Sorry to hear your hearing has deteriorated to such a degree, I hope you’re able to tune it out/sleep through it.
