Tinnitus Cure - Part 1

By Leo Gura - September 5, 2024

I found a potential cure for tinnitus (ringing in the ears).

Over the past 12 months I have been suffering from serious sound-induced tinnitus and hearing damage. It made my life a living hell.

There is no conventional cure for tinnitus. However, after much internet research and experimentation, I discovered two technologies that have helped me and others. I am sharing the first technology here in this post.

The first technology is called Tinnitus Mix. I found it shockingly effective, helping a lot with my tinnitus in a short period of time. Its effects were beyond placebo. However, I make no guarantees that it will work for you. You’d just have to try and see.

Tinnitus Mix is a single audio file which you play using headphones which knocks out tinnitus. It doesn’t just mask tinnitus — which itself can feel good — it can permanently remove tinnitus over time. But it doesn’t work for all people.

Tinnitus Mix is a free technology invented by David Case. You can download the audio file here: Tinnitus Mix

It’s simple to use. His website explains the basics of how to use it.

Here are my suggestions for how to use it:

You must listen to Tinnitus Mix for long periods of time. Hours on end. It’s recommended that you listen to it in your sleep 8hrs per day. But you can start off listening to it less. You can also listen to it during the day. But even 2 hrs of listening can help. It just won’t be permanent.
Do not compress the WAV file into MP3 format. Compressing the file could reduce its effectiveness.
Start by playing it at the lowest possible volume 1/10 or 2/10. If it’s working for you, gradually increase volume over the days and weeks that you use it.
The full protocol requires listening Tinnitus Mix for 8hrs per day, every day, for 3 weeks straight. It’s important to stick to this regimen as closely as possible and don’t skip days, otherwise your tinnitus could regroup and return.
You need to use headphones, and high quality headphones. Do not use earbuds. Do not use speakers. Do not use cheap crappy headphones. Make sure you get comfortable headphones so you can comfortably wear them long-term and during sleep.
Two headphone recommendations:
- Audio-Technica ATH-M50X Pro – $150
- Koss KTXPro1 – $20
Tinnitus Mix is intended to cure tinnitus caused by loud sound or sudden onset. There are other kinds of tinnitus, so be careful. Tinnitus Mix is not designed for people with reactive tinnitus and might make reactive tinnitus, or other kinds of tinnitus, worse. Think carefully about what kind of tinnitus you have and what caused it.
Be cautious when first starting this protocol. There is a small risk that it could make your tinnitus worse. Start low and short duration (2-3hrs/day).
Tinnitus Mix is not a 100% guaranteed cure. It works for approximately 50% of users, and don’t expect it to eliminate tinnitus entirely, rather expect reduction in severity. It did not entirely cure my tinnitus but it helped reduce the worst of it, bringing it down to a tolerable level.
Do not listen to Tinnitus Mix if you have severe hearing damage or extreme sensitivity to sounds.
When you first start listening to Tinnitus Mix, it will sound horrible to your hears. Don’t fret. It sounds grating at first but you will quickly get used to it, and it will soon even become soothing. Just trust the process and use very low volume to start.
Warning: This is experimental alternative medicine. It comes with some risks and it is not as well-studied or well-documented as conventional medicine.

If you know anyone with hearing damage from loud sounds, or tinnitus, recommend them to try this out. The risk is minimal as long as you don’t blast it too loud in your ears.

If you have success with this method, please report your results and feedback to David Case so he can catalogue it to help others. David is very responsive and he collects feedback on his technology for the benefit of others. Also, report your success to me, so I can know how effective this method is for others. At this point I have only tried it on myself.
