when your hearing is not as good as it was . . .


I'm 68, and too much loud live rock contributed to what they call mild-to-moderate hearing loss. So.

What will no longer make a difference in terms of my components? What can I sacrifice, because I can no longer hear it? 

Will Bluetooth sound the same from my DAC vs going through my preamp for example? 

Can I hear the diff between a tube (Freya) and solid state preamp? 

Can anyone share their experience and if they've done anything to their systems?

I have been tested and certain upper frequencies not quite as sharp as it once was 

a bit rolled off on tip like hearing a cymbal fade instead of 4 times 3,

and even  certain parts of the midrange,, midBass not so much , That  being said 

better audio equipment for sure helps especially the dac and cabling to give it That extra definition .
