when my neighbour installed his new repellant, I was very annoyed... and not 
be able to sleep, because someone watches TV is not great either.

So a lot of times it was not great to be able to hear high frequencies. 
Sometimes it is great (think organ concert in church with great accustics 
etc, think sister watches tv when she shouldn't). but sometimes it is close 
to painfull.

Luckily (?) it goes away when you get older...  and I don't hear them as loud 
as 5 or 10 years ago. Nowadays it is ok. I still hear them, but they are not 
annoying anymore.
