Tinnitus

I have recently come down with Tinnitus that I believe is chronic however it is becoming more intermittent.
I wonder if there are any known DJ's out there that suffer from it?
I also wonder if there are DJ's that actively seek out care and practice ear-protection everytime theyre spinning for clubs? |

You should always wear ear plugs in the club if you're a DJ. |
That's better. DJ, promoter, bartender, working the door, or just dancing - if you're often around excessively-loud noise, you'd be foolish to not wear earplugs. |

| Wear ear plugs people, I never worked in the industry but I have lost some of my hearing just from the amount I went out when I was younger. It doesnt come back and I am constantly having to turn up the volume to max on my computer etc, its vicious cycle. |

| don't use an ipod in public. Unless you have moulded isolated ear buds, this make you deaf. |

| most people by the age of 30 can't hear above 16 Khz. Those professional engineers and mastering engineers in their 60s are not hearing past 12 Khz. |

This is what always bugs me when these old DJs/musicians/etc. are talking about sound quality. You're like a hundred years old and have ed your hearing systematically for the past 30 years, why are you talking about sound quality. |

LOL, they are actually borderline deaf. I remember hearing a story from a promoter about sasha refusing to get on because the sound wasnt loud enough, and the promoter saying it was so loud his ears were borderline bleeding. Like i said, i didnt even work in the industry, but my hearing isnt the same because of not wearing ear plugs when i went out a lot. |
