Hearing aids for audiophiles?

Is there such a thing? I have hesitated getting them for music listening reasons. I manage ok in everyday situations but I know outside of listening to music they would benefit me. I have, in my opinion, a beautiful system that I throughly enjoy.  Sure I could get the aids for day to day hearing other than music but taking them out for music I fear would provide un enjoyable results.

What are your thoughts and experiences

There's really only 3 things wrong with hearing aids for audiophiles:
1. the mic is crap
2. the amp is crap
3. the drivers are crap
Otherwise they are fine.

I am hoping to get responses from people that have /do wear them or have experience, family members that wear them.

Do you wear hearing aids by chance?

I do and I cannot stand them when listening to my system. I have tried a few different makes and they all make analog sound like a cheap transistor radio. For my hearing deficit, the Schitt Loki is the perfect solution for now.
