I'm a musician, and I also do a lot of silent sitting meditation. My hearing is pretty good and I am pretty sensitive to ticking -- for example my dad installed a cheap amazon wall clock in the kitchen of his house, and I can hear it when I am 30 feet away. Does anyone with some knowledge think this will be an issue?
Edit: I just remembered I had a Timex Weekender, which are notoriously loud, and I did in fact have to get rid of it.
