You are on the right track.
Age related hearing loss happens to all of us.
Believe or not the older we get the more it will manifest itself
You can easily test it yourself e.g. http://newt.phys.unsw.edu.au/jw/hearing.html
My hearing is capped at 13 kHz
Basically I have told you now that I'm approaching my mid 60's
An A is 440 Hz.
Indeed all instruments playing a A sounds the same as far as this fundamental is concerned
They also produce the harmonics, that is where they differ
You can imagine that a you can easily hear the 2/3/4/ harmonic before any of them hits the upper limit of your hearing.
You have the almost full coloration produced by most acoustics instruments.
Pragmatically spoken: I do hear a profound difference between a HD600 and a HD800 or a Ety4P
