There’s a myth that loud sub bass frequencies doesn’t cause as much damage as loud high pitch frequencies. Haven’t looked into whether it’s true or not yet.
It is quite possible to get tinnitus with low frequency exposure. I got mine from exposure to loud music while using earplugs that basically had no attenuation on low freq.
Leaving the club the silence outside sounded like my head was inside a slowly cooking porridge kettle. This disappeared in a couple of hours. Low frequency tinnitus appeared years later. I thougt first that my neighbourg must have installed a new air condition unit.
