I wouldn't call it "better," though many tinnitus sufferers 
experience increased sensitivity to certain frequencies. This is 
called "hyperacusis."

>Brian Eno's thoughts about furniture music

"Furniture music"(musique d'ameublement) was Erik Satie's notion, circa 1920:

"We want to establish a music designed to satisfy 'useful' needs. Art 
has no part in such needs. Furniture music creates a vibration; is 
has no other goal; it fills the same role as light and heat - as 
comfort in every form...Furniture music for law offices, banks, etc. 
No marriage ceremony complete without furniture music...Do not enter 
a house which does not have furniture music."
