Piano high notes very bright


Ever since I rediscovered my hearing aids as an audio enhancement, I’ve noticed that piano high notes almost sound shrill.Not all recordings, but enough to bother me. Is this a speaker or an amp issue? Or the hearing aids?

Changing speaker positioning can reduce and even eliminate this problem. If your speakers are spread too far apart and are close to the side walls it can cause this issue due to how your speakers interact with room acoustics. Try moving the speakers closer together and away from side walls. Toe in direct to the listening chair to minimize the side wall reflections even further. Try it, it’s a free tweak.
