This is very interesting! As many know, I'm sure, there are broad traditions of "inner sound" meditation, often called "nada yoga." The most well known are from North India, but it seems pretty universal. It begins as a high pitched sound, usually in the right ear, but then evolves into a range of other sounds. Is this similar to what the OP is describing?
Here's an example of this from a Theravada perspective:

I have tinnitus (ringing in the ears) and sometimes I use that as the focus of my meditation.ZhengShen wrote: ↑Wed Oct 12, 2022 4:50 pm [Mod note: This topic was split from here: https://www.dharmawheel.net/viewtopic.p ... 62#p472862

Interestingly, if I am in the woods or next to the ocean, the ringing stops.
EMPTIFUL.
