My hearing loss
starts at the human vocal range with a sharp drop at the female range. Hear the lower sounds better, but I miss when people speak.
And since my job is holding meetings and telecons, I need to be able to hear, even the "soft spoken" people.
I'd still recommend getting hearing aids with your loss. Yeah, they're hard to wear due to the image problem (only "really old" people wear them), but it's worth it. I've had hearing aids for over 20 years, started wearing them when I was in my 20s.
