How do you score perfectly on a hearing test if you have loud tinnitus? Wouldn't the tinnitus (especially if its multi-tonal) mask some of the test tones?

Not nescarilly, atleast fro mine it doesn't cover up sounds. Can sort of hear through it. Can still hear plug sockets, birds those annoying cat scares in people's gardens

They can't test every frequency technically
