Ageed that ear is the most accurate measuring tools provided you heard enough reference system or you have one to refer to.

your right ear is probably more sensitive than your left or vice versa. yes, no?

 /59 If that's the case, better go see your ENT doctor.

SMP: Yea, building passive networks require impedence of the drivers to be taken into account. In fact prices of the components differ too. I'm pretty sure all the DIY passive builders here know what they are doing from the start, ya?

Additionally, people that are subjected to loud noises daily (without protective gears) as part of their job (heavy machinery, construction etc.), sports hobbies (shooting, F1 driver etc.), the place they stay (near a major highway, railway station etc.) are prone to hearing loss on either ears or both.

You can take a free hearing test here:

Some people may be tone deaf on certain frequencies/tones. Btw, it's a definite no-no to dig the ears by yourself (yes, I'm pointing and you-you-you and you). hehe! /62

mike,
no, no, no... you more handsome. thanks for the concern.

anyway, i hope that you can understand that even if the hearing ability
between the left and right ear is minute, there is a difference!
