Also, to those of you with hearing aids, do you listen with them or without them? I know aids are designed for speech but some like my Signia aids have a music setting that the audiologist customizes. I use it occasionally but often listen without the aids, though clearly something is missing - clarity of highs - tho there’s also an edge sometimes so maybe not clear cut. But what do you folks do?
Hearing problems and speaker upgrade
Like many 68 year olds I have developed hearing issues at the high end. My new hearing aids help in conversation but to me interfere with the sound of my system— highs are clearer maybe but sharp and shrill (plus it just makes sense to me that the hearing aid speakers aren’t as high quality as the speakers/system I’ve put together over the years). So I remove hearing aids when listening. So I’m wondering… is it worth it to upgrade my 40-year-old speakers? Will better speakers help get me back closer to what I was hearing before? Should I just accept the change in sound and adjust to it? Any insights appreciated! Thanks
