Got a pair of Oticon alta rite (receiver in the ear) aids, along with the connect line streamer, TV adapter and remote microphone.
This is my third set of aids, second bte (behind the ear).
My evaluation is the aids are great, the aids work together so it as close to normal as i can remember, it took several trips to the audiologist to get the volume and background set to my satisfaction but we finally got there.
The streamer is also a lot of help, I have an iphone 5 and when receiving a call it goes directly to my aids via the streamer, phone calls were a big problem so this is a great help. My audiologist was able to connect my steamer and iphone so that I can make calls via the streamer using Siri (voice control) and never having to take my iphone out of my pocket. I can also listen to music on the iphone by pushing a button on the steamer.
The TV adapter is a big help when there is other noises (people) in the same room. The tv audio is piped directly into my aids.
The remote microphone is so far the least used since the improved hearing due to the aids make hearing my wife a lot better with out the mic.
Hope this is of help to someone.
