   He was a self serving sociopath, using others for stepping stones, despite   
   his Musical expertise.

   So it takes effort, everything that's worthwhile does.

   So those nuances would have to be emphasized...i.e. amplified to bring them   
   out at higher levels.   
      
   Clearly, as they are now, they're part of the characteristic aka 'natural'   
   dynamics of the sound, best heard by not cranking up the levels, but since   
   hearing loss crowd will obviously have none of that, then modifying the   
   signal will be the only to hear those nuances.

   Yes. It would require modification of the amplitude levels various portions   
   of the ADSR modulation envelope to compensate for over cranking the spl.

   Sounds like a struggle...probably, most likely is...and no surprise - as I'm   
   fortunate enough to be both an engineer and musician...but that's an all too   
   uncommon situation, which keeps the speaker rebuilders in business, and the   
   hearing aid makers too ;)

   Lots of moving parts that have to be properly maintained, even more for an   
   external combustion engine.
