Webwiz,
As an example 46"/55" Samsung flat-screens typically have two 10/15-watts internal loudspeakers packed into a third of the half-inch deep real estate behind the screen area. It takes about 75 watts to power the display/ two circuit boards/ internal speakers and the current passes around the wiring generating EMI (ElectroMagnetic Interference) that distorts the already indifferent sound and degrades the video quality.
If for some reason it's impossible to run Interconnects from the Comcast (or equivalent box)/ DVD player to the amplifier for sound and HDMI cables from the Comcast box/ DVD player to the TV for video, then there are two things you can still do. Firstly, regularly degauss the circuit boards and speakers of the flat-screen itself with a Walker Talisman to clear EMI sound distortion. Secondly, substitute nylon machine screws for the ferrous case and circuit board screws that interfere magnetically to degrade sound.
Having long used a two-channel audio system for sound, had always expected an investment in very expensive HDMI cables (mine cost $20 or $30 each) would be required to achieve the video improvement (clear detail) delivered by degaussing and nylon screws.
If Tinnitus is contributing to your hearing loss, wearing silicone ear-plugs at night rests the auditory nerves and relieves a good part of the condition.
Hope some part of this helps.
