One thing is bothering me a lot.I have experienced this for a lot of times. If someone saying something loudly from some distance of 50m-60m from me, I can't hear it clearly what does he said but guy besides me hears perfectly and i had to ask him that what that person said. I have experienced this for many times and my friends also says that you hear less or what. Please help me, What could be the possible reasons for this problem?
