That is an excellent suggestion! I agree and will start with a Schiit Sys and then progress further if it helps. I price the Bellari at $99 and the BBE at $149. All reasonable.
I too was a "purist" for years until I stumbled across a home theater speaker selector that added zero to the sound.
I will report back in two weeks. Thank you!

Pretty sure the $149 was the xlr version of the BBE.
Here is the $99 one that is rca.

Also the Schitt loki might be the best choice since its just an EQ and will fit with his existing equipment.
Good luck and also its not audiophile but you might want to look into bone conduction headphones. My mom who has 2 hearing aids really seemed to appreciate the bone conduction ear phones more than the highend normal phones I gave her.

Another great suggestion. Was there any particular brand of bone conduction headphone that worked for your mom? Glancing at Amazon, it looks like the usual mish mash of made up brand names. I suppose reading several dozen reviews might help.
I will also research to see if any of the big name headphone companies bother with bone conduction.
Your time and attention is greatly appreciated.
She has the Aftershocks Treks or something like that. Just a bluetooth model. Here is a wired version

I think these will only work if the hearing loss is to otosclerosis, a condition of the middle ear.
