I'm curious, how many people are aware of these sounds. I have designed, etched, and built my own switching power supplies along with winding my own transformers. I am aware of the source of the noise. So, does anyone else hear these high frequency sounds regularly?

I have tinnitus AND can hear my lightbulbs buzzing. Follow me for more tips!

It’s probably the type that’s brain side like mine. It’s not an ear thing but your brain has some reason for thinking you hear the ringing. But even so, I can still hear the slightest sounds. It’s bizarre because the ringing will be louder but I hear things that are quieter. It’s like having two sets of ears at once in those moments and is always unsettling.
