    That is what I have experienced. The lobby of my office building (very high ceilings) or Whole Foods (very high ceiling) I shop increase my tinnitus sound a lot. I don't know why.

    Powered speakers for living room

    Update: after 5 1/2 months of fight with several ENT and audiologist, I have to accept that I have tinnitus due to hearing loss in my left ear beyond 4k hz. It has been a challenge; I still struggle to accept that I have to live with it forever. So this is going to be a long journey. I know...

    Powered speakers for living room

    Still trying to heal my ear. I was really depressed after two months suffering hearing problems. After visiting three ENT, one of them finally found that my inner ear is inflamed, and it was not related to Eustachian tube dysfunction. The issue started with the Genelecs after a couple of weeks...

    Kali Audio IN-8 Studio Monitor Review

    Thanks for the note. I had the Genelec 8020 and 8040 and understand the point of clarity. I could not keep them because my left ear did not like it and got clogged. Considering the room acoustics and lack of quality of my ears, I don't see the benefit in spending $3500 on pair Neumann KH-150.

    Kali Audio IN-8 Studio Monitor Review

    I have read the 55 pages of discussion and very few owners have posted their impressions of these speakers or the kali in-5. How do they sound?

    Powered speakers for living room

    Ear is healing after several weeks of treatment. So my priority is protecting my ears more than SQ. Because of that I think my next trial is going to be the Kali In-5 as it has textile dome tweeter. I am sure it is not going to sound closer to the 8040 but it is a compromise

    Powered speakers for living room

    I think the Behringers were brighter than the Genelecs. So it was not a problem of high frequency definition or SPL.

    Powered speakers for living room

    I have not any issue before the 8020. The ringing disappeared after a month. And then it started again with the 8040. I went to the audiologist and ENT when the ringing with the 8020 was 24/7 and affecting my quality of life. The test showed that my left ear has some hearing loss in the high...
