there are several outfits that will sell you an inexpensive refoaming kit, as
well as Youtube videos to teach you the process; for example (not a
recommendation of this specific service):

i haven't done it, but i have resold high-end speakers with deteriorating
surrounds on the basis that the buyer will do the refoaming
Oh tinnitus? Nothing can be done for it that would not further diminish my
hearing capability. Just have to get used to it or die, whichever comes first.
i've had tinnitus plus hearing loss in right ear since i woke up one morning in
1974, hyperaudism (no damping) in left ear since 1990, and tinnitus in the left
for the last year or so; getting tinnitus so early perhaps made it easier for
me to tune it out; i really don't worry about it; music sounds great
Just tested (online hearing test, always a bell-weather of accuracy) and see
that my tinnitus is a harmonic centered around 6kHz. Has to be up to -27dB to
hear it above my own din. Going up from there I can hear 8kHz down to -66dB,
12kHz down to (ha) -33dB, and 14-20kHz not at all. 1kHz is good down -81dB.

interesting test; sounds like you used it as a threshold test, rather than an
equal loudness test at moderate levels (and by not using headphones you
introduced major aberrations); at moderate levels and with good headphones i
found my curve is pretty normal except my low frequency response is a bit
flatter (better) and above 6kHz my response curve just keeps going up (couldn't
hear 16kHz at all); individual ears would have very different curves for me
