    Should a hearing aid produce tinniness?

    Yes, the explanation from the audiologist is correct. You are starting to hear sounds that you were not used to before and those may sound unnatural. It's like walking from a dark room to a brightly lit room. It's not like a pair of new glasses. Some people get used to it in a week, others...

    They are phenomenal aids (I have them). Good luck with the DIY

    Sony - Signia over-the-counter self fitting HA

    The CRE-C20s are the OTC version of the Signia Silk , not the C&G. Sony is not part of WS/Aud -- that's absurd. Sony has a partnership with Signia. While both share the same hardware, the software and the firmware is different. You are only comparing hardware but the success of an aid depends...

    Widex Evoke

    And, the audiologist needs to pair the remote link device with the hearing aids (yes, its absurd the way Widex did this setup). OP needs to get a Pro-link

    I understand that the software is available, but is it confirmed that they are locked?

    Costco offers a 6-month return policy, not a 6-month trial. I concur with Costco’s recommendation: $1600 for a pair of the most advanced hearing aids, including unlimited support and supplies. All major brands provide competitive features. The brand that works for one person might not be...

    Phonak Target 11.0 request

    Hello: Can I have a link to download Phonak Target 11.0 (Not the latest 11.1). I'm having an issue with the new feedback test and I prefer to use the previous version. Thanks in advance!

    Sad Market HA in Russia

    All platforms, except the Allure, can still be programmed using standalone Compass. The Allures, and likely the platforms that follow, use or will use Compass Cloud. Unfortunately, for those of us who self-program aids, this marks the end of self-programming. So, unless you own the Allures, you...

    Philips HL 9040 - System error - Blinking orange 3 times

    Clean the connectors to ensure the charging spot is clean. If the light does not turn solid after this in the charger, you will have to go to Costco.

    EMF Radiation from Hearing Aids

    No, I am not worried. What is important is the attenuation of intensity of a radiation beam passing through the human skull and other tissues which it interacts. Bluetooth signals are very low-power radio waves that do not penetrate the skull to any significant degree plus, the human body...

    Help comparing features of the Costco models (Sep 2025)

    (1) Jabras have the latest technology for speech in noise. It's the latest tech available at Costco. It is arguably the closest in performance to the Spheres. (2) Of all the options, I prefer Phonak target for DIYT: I find it is the most flexible and has more options for DIYers. You can tune...

    Hearing aid for elderly?

    Why reinvent the wheel: If he has been using Phonak and he is happy with Phonak, stay with Phonak. He can use his current accessories with current Phonaks. Costco has the Sennheiser, which is a rebadged Phonak and they are also compatible with Phonak accessories. You can transfer the programming...

    Intent 1and LE bluetooth transmitter

    AFAIK, this is not possible. You need either (1) Oticon TV Adapter as @pvc said or (2) BT LE Audio transmitter (for example, Floogo FMA120). I do not know if the FMA120 works with TVs (Its a USB device). I've seen some cheap Oticon TV Adapters in eBay BT LE Audio and BT LE (which is what you...

    Truhearing TH 7 RIC LI T

    The AX does not have LE audio (only Bluetooth LE) as you correctly explained. IX does have LE Audio (No Auracast) and that one can work with the FMA120 (Floogoo). Per Signia, none of the Signia/Rexton devices will get Auracast https://www.signia.net/en/support/pairing/ (See 1st FAQ question)...

    Amplifon Fitting

    I agree with @pvc : this is a GN Resound device. Connexx is for Signia devices. Connexx cannot be used to program your devices. I believe Amplifon devices are locked - this means you cannot program them yourself unless you get a PIN code from Amplifon. I checked the DIY School PDF doc and it...

    WIDEX allure versus smart RIC

    I recently got A Widex SmartRIC 440 (I got them for $500 with new receivers @ eBay) and I've used the high-frequency boost option when I set them up and it made my setup much easier! (I have ski-slope hearing loss). The Widex fitting formula sets gains at 6kHz and 8kHz "low" for high frequency...

    I just got Phonak Infinio I30-R -- no reviews online or comments?

    I switched from the OticonBass 2 vent to the Oticon OpenBass, it has a more open feeling but performs like the Bass domes. Glad my post was able to help! I never went back to the Phonak domes.
