I really do have some hearing impairment. Enough that I can get words
mixed up and not really know what you are saying sometimes... I
attribute the problem to loud music for years during my teenage years...
It gave me a case of tinnitus (ringing in the ears). Anyway I went and
had my hearing checked and was told that my deficiency was in the "range
of a womans voice".. I told my wife what the tester said and she thought
I was BSing her.... :-)...

" The reality is that noise-induced and age-related hearing loss most

frequently occurs in the higher frequencies. The human ear is
significantly more susceptible to noise-induced hearing loss at high
frequencies, where ANR has no effect.
