    Which makes you wonder if they are damaging their hearing putting those earrings in. With a human ear you are piercing the tip of flesh that helps funnel in sound waves but isn't exactly part of hearing portion of the ear. With full bone used for vibrations, any change would alter what is heard.

    Anything that actually touches an Au'ra's horn is probably selectively silenced. You can imagine all the sound generated by long hair or hoods as they rub against the horns, or sounds generated by touching other objects with the horns. Most sufficiently evolved animals have selective hearing systems in the brain, which process sound volume according to context. (This is how animals are able to deal with loud noise during the day, but use significantly improved hearing to avoid quiet predators during the night. This is also the reason why people can sometimes have difficulty falling asleep because they think there are loud noise: the brain is improperly changing the volume control before they fall asleep all the way.)
