I keep hearing this chime. What could it be?

Hm.  I'm no doctor and most of my knowledge concerns forensic and mortuary science.  Tinnitus, ringing in the ears, can actually encompass both ring and a rythymic beating sound.  This is an entirely subjective experience. Check it out on wikipedia and see if it matches what you describe: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tinnitus\n\nIt may also be Bruit, similiar to Tinnitus, which is caused by the way that blood rushes past an obstruction in a blood vessel.  This can be heard by another person using a stethoscope.\n\nIt may also be a mild hallucination.  I hate to say that though.  The only thing that really gave me cause to say that is your statement that you "feel like it means something."  Hallucinations with paranoia, which is what I would consider believing an unknown stimulus to mean something, are often not good things, not at all good.\n\nGet checked out by a doctor, it's more likely to be something like tinnitus or bruit.  And when you're there make sure you describe to him/her everything that you described to the Answers community above.

Tinnitus is more of a ringing in the ear - Sounds more like a circulation thing - the blood vessels in the ear are some of the thin-est in the body. - even a slight constriction will sound like a drum - you're likely hearing the sound of blood trying to get through after every heart beat. - My mom had carotid surgery for blockage, and before she did the noise in her ear was deafening - she said it was like rushing water - actually kept her from sleeping. - I'd see a Dr. - Just to be funny, you could try some aspirin or Tylenol (thinner, anti-coagulant) and see if there's a difference. - If there is, it's probably a circulatory thing. - an ultrasound will confirm, but a Dr. should be able to listen with a stethoscope and get an idea if you've got some pathways that are blocked. - Do get it checked. - Depending on your age and health, blockages can lead to stroke. - Hope it's nothing at all.

You're psychic....or you have some sort of psychic ability! \n\nFor the people that you hear from, maybe they're picking up on your mental thought waves.....it's all energy! Maybe they are tapping into it somehow!

No. But I have had past experiences with ghosts and currently I have one that likes to make a noise in my ear, it almost sounds like someone is shuffling cards and it always touches my head at the same time. The strange thing is that it happened to me when I lived in Beverly, then I moved to S. Hamilton and it is happening here so whatever it is followed me.\nI would love to hear more about it though

200 Hertz or any integer multiple thereof.\nSo, 400 Hertz, 600 Hz, etc.. would cause it to resonate.

Sounds like someone is scamming you to me.

That style of music is typically referred to as "Gregorian Chant".  It's very low (bass or baritone) and gutteral.  Creepy stuff.  The Benedictine Monks of Santo Domingo De Silos are considered at the top of this genre.  You can find them on Amazon.

I don't think their are any "rules of etiquette" for placing or   allowing wind chimes to ring on ones property.  There may however be some local noise ordnance that could apply to this.    If you have any concerns, just call your local police department ask if there are any restrictions in your area.  Also while most people think the sound of chimes are peaceful and comforting, some neighbors may not agree. Just be considerate and if any of them voice opposition, to your chimes, you'll have to try to find a compromise to keep peace in the neighborhood.

Believe it or not, if that speaker is near your computer, your monitor or another electronic device, try moving it away from the other device.\n\nIt may be that you have RF (radio frequency) interference that is causing the problem.

I can hear my cell phone through the computer speakers when it rings, usually makes me jump. It also affects my radio-alarm clock. Cant leave it on the desk or the night stand! As for why, Ill wait for some elses explanation

why not make something like a wind chime by using cartons tins etc that would be thrown away.\n\nyou could make it decorative if your into that kind of thing and you could say that it explores the theme that recyling should always be visible

You might be wary if it is coming from the hard drive. Unusual noises from the hard drive can be a sign that the drive is about to die. Backups, backups, BACKUPS!

A little tweetering, high pitched sound.
