According to the VA I have lost a bit at both ends of the spectrum. Nothing too bad.
My problem is not what I cannot hear. It is what I do hear.
All that said being in my 70’s with a myriad of issues I had to downsize to equipment I can physically handle. Moving around 100 pound amps and speakers is simply no longer an option.
A word of advice… please do not ever tear your quad tendon off the bone.
Aging ears and Nuances
I spoke to and older audio buddy of mine and he made a full 180 on his nice tube gear and just went with lower cost streamer that can also be used as a preamp. He says he doesn’t hear much above 11.5k. My tests let me hear up to about 13.5k but I’m able to hear even subtle differences between tube amps etc quite easily even though most of the music is in lower frequencies of the spectrum regardless. Does anyone here find themselves experiencing a more difficult time appreciating the nuances with their age? And has it affected the choices you have made with gear, not being as picky?
