Equalizer to compensate for hearing loss - Any success stories?

65-year-old retired gent here has been wearing Oticon top-of-the-line hearing aids for three years now. My hearing loss is quite pronounced (see audiogram link herein).

Using my iPhone and AirPod pros with this audiogram from the (Health app) yields spectacular results. Now I’d like to see what can be achieved using an equalizer to mimic my audiogram and an amp driving floor standing speakers.

Soliciting your informed feedback/opinions.

My left ear hearing is similar to yours. I don't wear hearing aids, but still enjoy my music despite this.

OP the Schiit Loki Mini is the best ... quite, easy and effective.

BTW ... getting compelling results using red light therapy in hearing loss ...

Can you amplify on the red light therapy? Pun intended.

I paired a Schiit Loki with their Vali 2 headphone amp coupled with a pair of their custom short interconnects, a Sony NW-A105 Hi-res player and Audio-Technica ATH-MSR7 headphones for a really sweet set-up.
