Have you ever been in complete silence...but then you hear this ringing sound. You never know where it comes from, you just hear it.Does it mean something? Is it something about our brains we have not yet tapped into? Maybe silence does something to our ears or our brain to make us THINK we hear a ringing sound...i'm not exactly sure if it happens for you people but it does for me and any of my freinds that talk about...First the silence, then that slight ringin sound yet it seems to come from no direction, just..everywhere....

I hear it. It's kind of strange, I guess. But no, I don't know what that is.

It isnt exactly silence...it is usually ambient noise. If you try out some of the noise reduction headphones, and you are in a silent room, you still hear noise with them because they are making the opposite ambient frequency, sometimes it is in the form of a ringing sound. I dont know...but there is no such think as absolute silence..unless you happen to be in a vacuum.

I heard a ringing in my ear. But it probbly had something to do with having ear plugs stuffed in them and standing next to a rotary saw for 3 hours.

actually, it's normal to hear it. it just has something to do with the way most people's ears are.

actually, a person can never hear absolute silence because of bodily noises. For instance, when in relative silence, you will still hear the blood in the vessels in your ear.

Vx beat me to it. The ringing of the ears is caused when blood flows through the vessels in your ear, which is the same reason you hear what you think is the ocean when you hold a conch to your ear, it's the same thing- just the echo of blood.

I thought that the ringing was caused by a lack of noise.. er like I mean...
If you listen to some really really damn loud music for half an hour and then stop, your ears will ring, right? Well think about the noise that you listen to daily... doesn't seem like much because you're used to it. We're all used to it. What our body isn't used to is a lack of the background noise that we always hear. So when it's quiet and then silent, it feels the same as when it's loud and then normal... Get what I'm saying? *scratches her head* I don't know if I'm right, but that's what I've always thought. Along with the blood vessel stuff. |

My computer is too loud for me to hear the silence.

If you are in true silence, you hear a constant high pitch noise in your ear. You always have air pressure though. (little partilcles flying around quickly) The sound is from thousands of tiny gas particles hitting your eardrum. You are, in a way, hearing air pressure.

That ringing happens when you regularly expose yourself to loud noise.

cenright , what do you think sound is? "vibrations" in the air.. but really they are pressure changes because sound waves are not longitudinal waves.. they are transverse waves... which means that high pressure is the crest and low pressure is the trauph... when they hit your ear drum its vibrates.. like a high pressure will push it inward , and a low pressure makes it push out... due to pressure behind the eardrum which is at normal air pressure.. (which is why your ear pops. if you are only getting high pressure fronts then your ear will change air pressure to match.) anyways the reason why we hear a ringing noise is because of the sound of your blood going through your vessels, bouncing off your skull and making a reverbed echo. just at a very high frequency.
