Not a hearing problem, it checks out with the ENT. I can get a set of quality PC speakers like Klipsch Promedia or Logitech's long discontinued Z-560 setup and they sound great at background / talking volume nearfield or far and sound the same across the volume / gain setting range. There is a disti
