Thanks for your response. I have a similar story -buying all sorts of new equipment until I had my hearing tested. I have had the In The Ear hearing aids for about 6 years and am ready for new ones. I have been told by 3 audiologists that the Behind The Ear type are the best for restoring hearing loss. They are not popular because they are more conspicuous. It's an ego thing. Dave
I too have been an audiophile since the early 60s and my hearing has deteriorated to the point that I now wear 2 hearing aids. My set-up still sounds OK but common sense tells me that no matter what equipment I buy, the sound really depends on the hearing aid circuitry which was never designed for music. There must be thousands of audiophiles ( and equipment reviewers) with hearing problems. I have yet to find any article.s on this problem. Did you make any modifications in your system to accomodate your hearing loss? I would appreciate any information you could send me
