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?

Anyway, I love music. Don’t lose heart. I equalize to gently elevate the higher frequencies that I don’t hear as well. That’s the key for me. I’m not deaf, just don’t hear the high frequencies as well. So, boost them. YMMV, but it works for me.
