Great that you are going to be evaluated for a CI. I use both a hearing aid and have a CI. My current CI processor is an N6 by Cochlear Corp. They work well together. That is referred to as being 'bimodal' as we are using 2 different technologies to hear. Both the CI processor and the hearing aid can stream to your cell phone, to TV, etc. None of the processors use ear molds like hearing aids do, so dermatitis should not be a problem. The Kanso 2 is an excellent processor, but it lacks a built in telecoil. I use telecoils a lot, so would not be happy with the new Kanso. Do you use the telecoils in your hearing aids?
