What exactly is he missing? I have some hearing loss where I am missing some high frequencies. At the same time though I find those upper frequencies uncomfortable to listen to giving a pokey, bright sound. I've tailored my main system to tone those down a bit with my Schiit Loki, tube preamp, neutral sounding cartridges, amp and speakers. I have Sennheiser Momentum headphones that I use occasionally which I like. I auditioned a host of Grado headphones and found them all too bright for me, although I love their cartridges.

Find out what he is able to hear and see what products might work well in that range. The Loki is in my main system between preamp/amp, but I suppose it could work with headphones too.
