I tried the comfort duet hearing devise. the audio quality was far, far better than my octicon excite (digital) hearing aids. problem with comfort duet was limited range of audio reception due to tethered mic, & probably range of mic. I keep asking my audiologist why my hearing aid perception is poorer than analog.
best answer i get is hearing aids amplify & compress the various frequencies. all this digital tweaking often distorts some of the frequencies. bottom line audiologist cant or wont do any more. says its my severe loss thats limiting any more fixing.
why listening devices sound better to me is never answered.
I use octicon excite hearing aids. they have a program called genie, which allows for fine tuning programming octicon aids. I download the program but dont know enough about audiology programing to use it. where can I find a tutorial that a layman can use on the genie / octicon that would give me a shot at subjectively finding a fix? If I cant get help any other way, perhaps some trial & error tweaking is worth a try.
