Although I personally can't hear higher frequencies as well as larry, I would
buy audio products ;with higher frequency responses since the lower 
frequencies are often cleaner.  A higher response will mean that
the frequency response curve will die off at a higher level and then
the lower frequencies will be more accurately reproduced.  

This is what I've been told anyway and what I believe to be true.
