An exemplary method includes a sound processor 1) storing data representative of a reference spectral profile for a cochlear implant patient, 2) detecting an incoming audio signal presented to the cochlear implant patient, 3) determining a spectral profile of the incoming audio signal, 4) comparing the spectral profile of the incoming audio signal to the reference spectral profile, and 5) determining, based on the comparison, an adjusted spectral profile that more closely matches the reference spectral profile than does the spectral profile of the incoming audio signal. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.
