My hearing is still pretty good, equivalent to that of a much younger person.
I did start from a very high base. At 15, I could hear frequencies as high as
27 kHz. In my late 20s, my upper midrange and high frequencies were more
sensitive than normal. In addition, I have weird sensory processing.
Sometimes it's a nuisance, but OTOH, it's really good for breaking down sounds
into components that include a representation of what's happened to the sound
since it was generated. That part is quite sensitive to distortions introduced
by audio hardware and software.
