I used to play electric guitar at extremely loud levels and listen to loud music as a teen. Had excellent hearing most of my life, then in my 50's, I got a constant ringing in my ears from all the previous damage. It won't show up right away, but eventually it'll catch up with you.
I know the feeling, even without yours and my musical histories, scientifically it has been proven that as we get older, men just naturally, more than women tend to lose the ability to hear high frequencies so when someone touts a 96 or 192KHZ capabilities of a recording I am not impressed. I recently put on a frequency sweep audio test disc and I can barely hear beyond 15KHZ!
