Does Hearing Loss Disqualify Me from Audiophiledom?
Listening to music is a two step process: what you hear and what you feel. If you can still "receive" the content and quality, it will make you feel what it always did, and that's all that matters. You will discover something new every day, still,...

what a loss... Maybe if you hadn't been condescending and didn't assume things about me, we could have taught each other a few things, but oh well. I did hear the Steelhead and a lot of phono preamps, side by side. Your argument that I had to ow...
