Is it giving you a better perception of imaging and soundstaging? Is it helping/unhelping in other ways? The reason I ask is that I have a friend who could, conceivably, benefit from something like this.

Hey Ben. In general, it is a substantial improvement in my ability to listen to music. I can now, with ease, 'see' that a quieter instrument is playing behind a louder instrument. The two are not blurred, and I can even 'see' the distance between them. This is quite a revelation to me, as before I would tend to bundle the two instruments together, or worse, not even detect that there is a quieter instrument in the back.

It's funny how people with mild-moderate hearing loss are not even aware that something's missing. I always thought that my hearing is okay, as I was always able to hear and follow the conversation etc. But once I got tested, it became apparent that there is some measurable loss. It is not a bad idea for anyone to get tested, because you may benefit in the end from a hearing aid.
