OMG Bruno!! God Bless you man!! I have a similar issue with working in a warehouse that uses forklifts and it's dusty and dirty. I can't help but say what a Masterpiece our Lord has made in ALL of us. Thank you so much brother. Stay around so we can love what you do even more!! Bless you

Great to hear that you are OK. This is a great explanation of the ear function and the potential issues.

Welcome back Bruno! We missed you. Glad you got your hearing issues solved. Can't wait to see another review of a mixer LOL. Take care...

This is a very important topic for being shared. Thanks for the information.

Hey Bruno, great to hear that all is back to normal now. Thank you for sharing this!

Oh yes, look after your ears!

Remarkable how similar our ears function to a common speaker, cone/ear drum, driver solenoid/ear bones, box ports/eustachian tube, speaker cable/nerve endings. To be specific it's more similar to a microphone, but microphones are principally the same as speakers anyway. I had a eustachian tube blockage recently which encouraged me to learn about the ear, very fascinating stuff.

Absolutely! Beyond that, our ears actually have EQ, compression and *physical* limiting built in to protect us from loud transients. It's quite amazing and well worth studying. Makes you even more aware of how important it is to protect your ears on a day to day basis.

I know you know all about this but I have for years known about Debrox OTC ear cleaning fluid. Same thing dr. uses or very similar. It works for sure! See ya pal.

Well, that was absolutely fascinating Bruno - and very important information for all of us. Especially interesting was our ability to turn up the treble content of our hearing. As we know, as we age the top end of our hearing starts to diminish. But it would seem we might be able to turn up our treble to help compensate. Good news for people like me who are older now (I am 70 years of age). I'm very glad you got it all sorted. Best wishes.

Thanks for the comment Alan :) It IS very interesting how our brain can compensate for variations in our physical hearing! It was interesting that the 'treble boost' went away pretty rapidly - within a few hours, and my hearing was then back to normal on both sides. I'm not sure how this interacts with the effects of ageing, as that is a long term, permanent high frequency loss - I'm sure it would be a fascinating topic to research! Glad you're not letting age slow you down!

Thank you for looking out for others. It's a rare quality. Peace be with you brother.

I’ve always followed this advice: The only thing you should ever stick in your ear is your elbow. Fantastic video, very informative. I once had a buildup, but there was no pain at all. I just noticed the difference in my hearing. I then had my hearing checked and discovered that although I m in my forties, I have perfect hearing eleven though I played in a rock band for 7 years! Thanks to genetics, apparently. I now am careful to periodically clean my ears with a wash..

Hi Bruno! Here's explained your missing for so long! Welcome back ;) I had similar issues but not so severe, because my ears were completely blocked by the earwax, but on the outer side so it was visible to the doctors...then they washed me with hot water and some kind of liquid into a giant syringe pump. They were surprised of how much earwax was coming out! During the condition I felt like I lived underwater... All sounded far away and weak even from close distance. But in my case the problem was the water...because water inflates earwax making it bigger time after time. Since I wash my hair every day that seemed a logical conclusion to me. Cheers :)

Thanks Cris, I've also picked up some teaching at a local arts college from the beginning of this year so have even less time to do videos ;) There are apparently some people who are more prone to earwax blockage than others - if you have the sticky/greasy type of earwax then you should drop by the ENT every six months or so, or whenever a blockage occurs.

I have hearing loss and tinitus. I have also had blockage and the ENT I went to here in the Philippines had a lot of trouble clearing the blockage completely. I would like to visit your ENT since it would be a short trip from here. I will contact your private email for info, location etc. Thanks for the advice I am also DJ and sound.

Dude... where are you? I'm in NJ United States obviously. You could come to our Church for a "VP" visit!! Not kidding. We would love it.

We did discuss the possibility that wearing earplugs a lot might have contributed to the compaction of the ear wax, however the compacted wax was very far inside the ear canal - much further than any earplug would ever reach. So in the end it was probably those cotton buds...

Just want to set it all up as the women who used it for singing. there's another cabinet that has 3 mounted in case. 1 is for cassett, cd and a small counsel to record on a special size disc. thank you Bruno. signed David.

Hi there David, you can get in touch with me via my website.

I used to clean my ears before, but one day I pushed the ear wax and couldn't hear it. It was said that it is better not to cleanse yourself by a doctor of otolaryngology. Since then, I have a regular visit to the otolaryngology department.

Hey Bruno. i bought a used Peavey sound system about a year ago. It came from someone who's wife used to sing for our Lord. It is mounted i'n cabinet has 1 amp for the monitor speaker cabinet 1500 watts. 2nd for 3000 watts used for the mic's and stereo set up. 2 equilizers. 1 sound effects for mic's. set up for wireless mic's. 1 8 channel mixer. the person had it set up to show it works. the plan i had was to break it down for other purpose. None of the chords are hooked up. Is there any chance to somehow help me. the cost ?. either way. tell me how to get a hold of you. i know nothing regarding facebook. your google isn't set up. if there's a way for me to contact you please let me know. i'll seach for this in this video. i live in Sanford, NC. i might be able to travel?

Thank God for ENT doctors...

I had something similar done some time ago, just not sure if it was a vacum..If i remember correctly the dr was pumping (with very low pressure) warm water into my ear and kind of washed out the wax..was this similar ? Each ear took about 10min..

Ah yes they call that syringing or sluicing - that is the first step in cleaning your ears and can be done by a general practitioner. It generally works unless the ear wax has become compacted, like in my case!

Sir how many amplifiers can I dasichain from the output from my dbx drive rack 260 is there any calculation method for this ???

@GLBProductions

5 жыл бұрын

If you are daisy-chaining the amplifiers together, ie driverack -> amplifier 1 input -> amplifier 1 line level output -> amplifier 2 input, there is no practical limit to how many amps you can connect, as each connection is buffered by the input of the amplifier in question.

True, but remember that the root cause of the noise is physical damage to the structure of the inner ear due to excessive sound pressure levels.

Thanks Bruno... I also had feeling of blockage in my ears... Did have them cleaned out by specialist also. But I also discovered my hearing seems to get softer when there's a change in seasons... After the 1st month of change in season my hearing returns to normal.
