I know as we age that a person's hearing often can't hear the higher frequencies that children can still hear....So my question is this....how much of this impact the sounds of music? Does someone out there have knowledge about this? Do older people lose the ability to hear specific sounds from instruments and the likeOn a side-somewhat related issue...I just listened to Timbuk3's Welcome to the Human Race with my better ear buds and for the first time heard the higher pitched tinkling sounds that I'd missed in the past.....
