hearing loss and amp choices

hearing loss and amp choices
I’m 69 and played in a band for 12 years with the drummer on my right side.  Needless to say I have some tinnitus in my right ear.  I have always had tube amps.  I treated myself to a ARC VSi75 and cannot be happier.  I find it to have all around ...

I had never heard Dynaudio speakers.  But I liked what I read about the Heritage Specials and purchased a pair.  Most expensive speakers I’ve ever had but worth every penny.  The detail of the instruments and of the soundstage is spectacular.    
New Dynaudio Heritage Special..?..!
Glad this came up again.  I purchased the Heritage Specials and love them. I had the original Totem 1 for 20 years and these are the Totem 1’s times 10. Dynaudio hit it out of the park.  These are an absolute bargain.  Furthermore, I’m over listen... 
Best Phono Stage
I like my ARC Ref phono 2 SE.  May find one used in your price range.
