My experience was the same. Especially when you're in your 30s or older, the degredation is real.
The range is falling for some people, for some it's ok I can still hear really high pitches in my 43, I could hear an ultrasound rat spooker that was installed in a supermarket bakery isle (so it was kind of a "me spooker", because the pitch is really annoying.
But speaking of listening to the music - you still can analyze the whole range, so I'm not sure it really degrades with age. I am still really picky about my headphones and speakers :)
