Easily the best and most significant sonic tweak one could ever make!

Well hearing aids of course (if you need them and many don’t realize they do). I was diagnosed with asymmetrical hearing loss in my right ear over a year ago at only age 52. Entirely in the upper frequency. (As hearing loss per my ENT is almost always symmetrical, the protocol for this unusual diagnosis is a MRI brain scan to rule out a tumor; thank God everything was normal there).

Anyway, while expensive (partially covered by Insurance in most plans in the States), the different listening to music is in absolute terms startling. The proverbial veil is wayyyyy lifted particularly on lyrics but really the whole presentation is improved from the midrange thru to the top registers.

Keep this in mind before upgrading your electronics or speakers and perhaps instead upgrade the most critical precision instrument....your ears! I share this and if it helps one member on here, well that would be really great.

I'm into my 3rd week on a pair of Eargo Neo hi-fi hearing aids and couldn't be happier. Eargo is the only FDA approved hearing aid you can order direct on-line. They're rechargeable, have a unique floating design for placement in your ear canal, nearly invisible, and have 4 programmed levels that you can change on the fly by tapping your ear. The Neo hi-fi is their top model and was designed for audiophiles. Best week ever. Worth checking out.
