If you have a high frequency hearing loss: How to adjust your car radio

If you have a high frequency hearing loss, you will find that certain adjustments will improve sound quality. Here’s a step-by-step way to adjust your sound system:

• Turn to a podcast or talk show with a female host.
• Find a female talker with a feminine voice.
• Turn the volume lower and lower until you have trouble understanding her words.
• Her voice will sound muffled to you.
• If you have access to the settings on your audio system, look for an adjustment to “bass” and “treble.”
• While listening to the female voice, turn the treble up slowly until you can understand her words. Save your settings.

Now if you listen to your favorite music on the radio, you will find that the music will sound much richer, and lyrics more audible. Enjoy!
