Although it seems counter intuitive, sometimes it helps clarify what you're hearing if you turn your aid down a bit.For me, that cuts down on the overly loud "sss" and "hard" sounds. It's still difficult for me to understand words, but less volume helps...sometimes. It doesn't work at all with music, however.

Thanks for the tips. I've monkeyed with volume a bit. Since the HAs' purpose is help me hear the high frequencies of speech, I DO turn them down in order to reduce those frequencies when I'm listening to music. Improves quality a bit.
