Basically, I’m semi-deaf, constant ringing in the ears, so pretty much anything and everything I use would be considered mid-range, but I want to get into the more technical side of audiophile equipment, but I have zero clue how, or what brands are considered a safe bet for a noob.
Id say frequencies are pretty useless past 16-17khz for music. People say it adds air but if you can’t hear it I don’t understand. We are all tuned for voice anyways so most people could appreciate quality there, while not hearing 12khz+. The only times i’ve been like wow its nice to have 17khz + is when there is a recording of a TV and you hear the high pitch noise from it.
