Sorry to hear if your hearing loss but don’t give up yet. Since I was a child, virtually a continual series or ear infections in my left ear resulted in permanent hearing loss. Mostly in the critical midrange and about a 30-40% loss of hearing. After a successful surgery in my early 20’s which halted the infections I have been fine but the damage is irreversible. I have just learned to compensate, heating the highs and lows through my left ear and all through my right. It hasn’t deterred me from being an avid audiophile since my teens. Don’t sell your gear for a year as others have said, you just might be surprised at how much might come back. You would definitely have sellers remorse if you liquidate your system now.
Advice on how to liquidate system
Few weeks ago, I sustained traumatic blast induced hearing loss during a training incident. The level of hearing loss and tinnitus is pretty bad, I’ve had only a minimal level of improvement. midrange and upper frequencies sound like a 1970’s transistor radio. Horrible. The reality of the situation is looking like my audiophile days are pretty much over. Now I’m thinking of what to do with the gear…the thought of dismantling my rig and selling piece by piece is nauseating. Are there any resources that would come in and take it all? At this point I really don’t give a crap about being lowballed, it’s aggravating to look at what Ive put so much time and effort into and not be able to enjoy it. I need to move on.
