Is it safe to say this occurs more as we age? I remember my dad started to become sensitive to loud noises as he aged and then really increased with Alzheimer's. I also listen to a radio station with a mostly mature radio audience (classical music) and they always have reports on the impact of loud places and even have a record of restaurants and public places to avoid due to the high noise levels.

If so, I guess I've entered that category.
