Hearing loss , speakers or headphones ?


Hello hello kind forum folks. I have substantial high hearing loss, about the top octave and a half of the piano. I’m a jazz a drummer and no longer hear the ride cymbal on a recording unless it’s very high in the mix. I use totem sttaf and NAD 356 AMP and nad CD player. I’ve tried many phones, not super high end. What are your suggestions ? The totems are great for solo classical piano and on jazz the bass sounds like it’s in the room. Very good. 

But For clarity on a well mixed vocal like James Taylor whose late recordings are sonically great IMO the voice sounds muddy and the bass I’ll defined. I know it’s a broad question but got me to capture some of the sonic joy with the hearing I have left what do you recommend. Headphones with an amp?

the best phones I’ve owned are the old etymotic Er 4. I now use Beyerdynamic highly isolated phones for when I have a recording project. 

Ironically i I heard a pair of audio engine powered monitors and the clarity was quite pleasing g for a five hundred dollar pair of speakers. I also use Focal powered monitors for my computer. 

Thanks fir any afvice. Differ t speakers? High end phones ?  I appreciate your help

Headphones were the cause of my hearing loss, so I would not recommend them.

I suggest speaker that sounds good at lower SPL ranges many times that ends up being a large efficient speaker. I have also had good luck with planar types sounding good at lower levels.

I have some high frequency hearing loss and I would not, under any circumstances, use headphones. 
thank you all, even at low volume -no headphones? any speaker recommends beyond what i own already?
Headphones do NOT cause hearing loss,irresponsible use does!!!
As for speakers I would recommend Klipsch.Need very little power,sound good at low levels and are also known to be slightly hot on the top end...
