A low hum in Tauranga, New Zealand RD8
A low vibration humming sound. Sounds like a fridge. Or car idling outside. I live in the country so don’t understand why I would be hearing it. How can I not hear this?? I bought ear plugs at 32db to block it out at night.. I could still hear it! I find solfeggio music a great way to block it out
