(The fact is ... that the dB level of the tinnitus (once it is
established that a person does have tinnitus) has nothing to do with
how much suffering/distress/incapacity/disability a person has from
tinnitus.)

All the time, I hear:

 high-pitched hissing
   birds chirping
     chains clanking
       sticks scraping
a little bell going ding, da-ding, dingy ding
 tea kettle whistling
   water running
     squirrels scolding
a telephone ringing in the distance
 once in a while, a loud CLANNNNG!

What do you hear?
Wow! That's a lot of noise. Due to middle ear problems, I have a
large, roaring waterfall, with a truck idling nearby, and someone at
the top of the waterfall playing a high "E" on a flute.

Crickets chirping,
electrical power lines,
water runnin,

I hear a very high pitched hissing, and as mine is pulsatile, it's
synchronous with my heart beat.

In the past couple of months, what I call a "new and improved" sound
has started appearing in the right ear. I call it the "dog whistle."
It's a VERY high pitch tone, obnoxious, sometimes wavering in pitch.
Like when you stand too close to an old TV. Can be particularly
irritating.

Well, in my right ear a high pitched hiss, certainly, varying in
volume.
Sometimes a melody or a recurring rhytm.
Clangs i don't have but occasionally a very note which lasts for a
second or so.

In my left ear? Thank God, there only an occasional low volume soft
whistle, which usually fades into the background.

I hear : crickets
          ringing
          buzzing and the worse of all the sound of wind blowing on
high
tension wires.
     The crickets are there most of the time but the others add there
sounds far to often for me,

My "T" sounds like the sound of a teapot and is sometimes combined
along with a narrow band hi pitched squeal.
I "hear" a very low-frequency "whooshing" like the blades of a
helicopter, then it becomes a steady bass hummmm like a truck idling
outside my bedroom. Occurs every night, and during the day when I'm
stressed or tired (which is often, because I didn't sleep well the
night before!).
