In Reply to: RE: My current experience with hearing aids. posted by Mcmann57 on July 24, 2016 at 16:42:39
I am 72 years old with a hearing loss and wear Widex hearing aids. I switch to their music program when listening to music. I like them very much. My audiologist recommended Widex for listening to music, from a variety of manufacturers that she could supply. Hearing aids require programing, and good audiologist is vital for critical music listening. Prior to the Widex I used another brand of hearing aids that also had a music program and had good results.The downside is that the best aids are costly. In my case an equal investment in my Hifi system would not come close to what I get from my hearing aids. I suspect that there are a lot of folks that could have a similar experience.

Wouldn't be without them. I tried Oticon aids first but was very disappointed in how they handled music.
But I wish I had a better audiologist. She's bright and good and I don't think they are trained to deal with music.
That's the real key, I think.

I had Resound hearing aids. They also had a music program that was very good.
I would add that my audiologist has fitted several classical musicians with hearing aids with good results.
