I guess you are right. I frequently used go into the bedroom and clasp my hands over my ears because the offense of the old (though expensive when purchased) sound bar. We replaced it with an Sennheiser Amber… natural sound invoices.
Iphone speaker phones used to drive me nuts. I now typically walk around much of the day with Apple noise cancelling EarPods in… often with nothing playing… just noise cancellation… leaf blowers, distant traffic. I guess the attention to sound does make one more sensitive to all the bad sound around us.
