Tinnitus can't be fixed as far as I'm aware. It's nice to drown it out in music (don't blast it and cause more hearing damage). Every now and then if I'm listening for prolonged sessions with moderate-loud music, my tinnitus will act up, but nothing permanent. Not to say it won't be permanent if, again, you're blasting music at incredibly volumes. Also, brightness in speakers can be an absolute killer for my tinnitus. The best way to "deal with" tinnitus for me is not thinking about it; the more it's on my mind, the more irritating it gets. I've had tinnitus for as long as I can remember, so I wish you the best of luck!
