I find the TV set noise to be quite loud and I definitely have notches in my hearing. On sensitive days, I have found just being in the same room to cause a certain amount of apparently physical discomfort. I don't find CRT monitors to be as bad. I also wish I could retune mains frequency to 54Hz. (I work at Verdi/scientific pitch when I can. i.e. for solo pieces). I seem to be having a day of pointless ranting. Just ignore me. :) -- cheers, tim hall http://glastonburymusic.org.uk/tim
