I do not believe in applied presbyacusis. It is not that I do understand the subject of loosing spectral sensitively with age but I certainly do not feel that deterioration of HF sensitivity makes a person more or less capable to register music.  We in audio invented to ourselves a myth that HF sensitivity matters too mach but it is not.

Also, the ringing that uselessly accustoms very sharp filters does not manifest itself as HF noise that might or not be heard by older people but rather as general hardening of sound, creation of different echoes and particularly prior to the transients, destruction of imaging, softening of lower bass.
