It's safe to say the people in here have experienced music at a high level of quality. If faced with the choice would you choose to give up your hearing and live without the joys of headphones or sacrifice your vision to continue in this hobby? Just something to think about. (Not trying to be offensive to the unfortunate ones who are blind or deaf.)

Considering the subreddit you posted under you will quite likely get hearing, i will probably get dowvotted but

Vision, and its not even close, our society is greatly built upon visual stimuli

Even going deaf i would still have an easier time adjusting than going blind, makes me remimd of Sound of Metal (2019)

There's a reason our society is greatly built upon visual stimuli. It is by far our most reliable and useful sense for making sense of reality.
