I think I may have figured out what your problem is. Your room is very small. Because of this, you probably have your listening chair very close to the rear wall, or maybe even right up against it. When you are too close to the rear wall, its like cupping your hands when you're having trouble hearing something. I don't think you have tinnitus because it looks like you're only having a problem with your system, and nothing else. If you do have tinnitus, you should hear the ringing under other circumstances as well.
Why do my ears ring with my new amplifier?
I just changed integrated amplifiers on January 2, 2015. I went from an Audio Research DSi200 to a Simaudio 600i. I'm running a Lumin A1 Network Streamer and Dynaudio C1 speakers. Those haven't changed. I'm also in the same 10' x 12' room.
My setup sounds great when I'm outside of my room. When I walk in and sit down, my ears start ringing.
I don't think that the high frequencies are the problem. Is this too much bass energy in the room, too much sound pressure, or what do you think?
Does anyone have a suggestion on what's needed to correct this problem?
Thanks,
Chuck
