Reading this thread with interest, as my better half has constant tinnitus; it can keep her awake at night. She's not aware of anything that can address it.

I have v occasional tinnitus; starts suddenly and loudly, but fades quickly. Seems to be in the region of about 6 - 7 Khz.
Strangely, I can't hear that frequency very well at all in the video posted by @MontyVeda
Edit: I can hear higher frequencies on my phone than on my laptop. Got some earbuds that are so small I can never find them... could try my wife's posh headphones....

I've got it but it doesn't bother me that much. It's an ever-present, not too loud high frequency hiss almost certainly caused by too many youthful hours on the range with a Lee Enfield 0.303. Thirty five years of using noisy power tools probably didn't help either.

It could be a lot worse.
