I'd like to bring @joangela and @bdzwahlen into this discussion who have experience with hearing loss since childhood.

Mommyd, while we wait for others to chime in, can you tell us a bit more about your son's hearing loss and the types of devices that were recommended by your specialist?

Thanks so much for the info! I will check out those links.

My son has mild-moderate bilateral sensorineural hearing loss. He currently uses an FM system at school. The audiologist suggested the Sivantas Styletto Deluxe and we were quoted $4900 for the pair.
