Speakers are probably a good option but if you want to achieve a similar effect, in my experience open backed headphones like the ones made by Senheiser have definitely decreased my tinnitus. I found that with my old closed backed headphones my ears would get watery and occasionally one of my ears would get very irritated and sensitive to sound, which made the tinnitus much louder. Since switching I have not had another instance of this.
