Just got hearing aids - new ears

Wow I'm overwhelmed. I knew I had hearing issues for over 20 years being from the audio/music industry when I was younger. So I finally wanted to do something about it. Went to an audioalogist and was tested. Good news no damage and my 20 to 3500 was great in both ears. But that's where it ended it dropped off steadily to 12000 by about 12db.

He recommended the Oticon alta2 pro TI. It's a mini over the ear with a custom fit open ear plug, which means I still get my natural hearing the the aids are programmed for frequencies above 3500.

It was an awaikining I can hear!!! I didn't realize how much I was missing. Their is also multiple programs at the click of a button, I can choose for speech, music, loud factories. It also has a self auto tune for your environment. I'm listening to beutifull music at much lower levels. Even tv is set real low and everything is crystal clear. They can also not mangle loud volume if I choose to listen loud.

Bottom line- theses things are not cheap you can find them for about 3400 a pair. If you can afford them they will change your life.
