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

Sorry a correction. The Massdrop HD6xx are same as the HD650, not the 600.  I just realized the typo. 
OP if your considering headphones have a look at the new generation of Planar Magnetic cans by HiFiMan & Audeze...You basically get a speaker like Magnapan in a headphone easy to drive...They are know for highly accurate sound and have beautifully extended treble response...Also have a look at Grado and AKG,both known to be lit up on the top end...
Do you have hearing aids?
Good hearing aids will stream Bluetooth from a variety of devices. iPhone included. With lossless files might sound decent.
Or listen to whatever speaker you like with the hearing aids. My wife loves music and some Oticon hearing aids were a life changer.
Hi yes I have the oticon very good for hearing in noisy places but they give a false quality. 

I wiil check outvthe phones phones but are there any recommends for speakers with more clarity or better vocals than the totems ? Should I consider bookshelves ?
