It's a low gain continuous sound that it seems to come from an external source, I hear it only in my home, if I go outdoors or anywhere else, it's disspearing. I can compare it to stationary big trucks near my house, with the engine on. I just want to say that I turned the power off in my block to see if it stops, it seems it was still there. I have a transformator across the road, I can't here nothing near it, but maybe something inside is causing a vibration that gets in my home through the ground and my walls resoneate. Made some recordings with a special calibration mic (3Hz - 20kH spectrum) and I can't see it... I can see some high gain activity on 50Hz, 100Hz, 200Hz and so on, with and without the mic plugged in the sound card, that means the electromagnetic field is very strong in my house (50Hz freq in Ro, EU). I am now investigating again a second layer tinnitus, on lows, but it's very hard to belive this regarding I have no important hear loss and I don't here it anywhere else, only in my house, all the time... I'm using masking techniques, it helps a lot, but I really to know what it is and where is the source.

Like an idling diesel engine at a medium distance I first noticed the sound/vibration when I moved to this house. Before that I had lived in suburban places. If there had been a hum in any o
