Time to visit an audiologist and have your ears checked out. Most audiophiles, for all their interest in sound, never go to an audiologist to find out exactly what they are hearing. Most who do go to an audiologist don't find one that can test beyond the 8K region, a must to find out what 'broadband' their ears are all about. I would love to have all the 'reviewers' who write about gear publish their hearing curves, that way we would know what the basis of their actual hearing is. You could call this 'full disclosure' and keep all honest.
Amps that are "forward"
I have always wanted forward sounding equipment and now that I'm getting older (58) when I turn the music up I don't here more detail.Any suggestions on amps and speakers and experiences by you older audiophiles would be greatly appreciated.
