In Reply to: Hearing aids, what would you buy next time? posted by Edd in KY on December 08, 2014 at 15:36:58:

I have had hearing aids for 20 years. I got one from Hearing Help Express on the internet about 7 years ago for $800 and it was pretty good. It was a behind the ear one with volume control and a background noise setting and a telephone setting. The background noise setting didn't do anything except cut the total volume as far as I could tell, but the telephone setting was good once you figured out where to hold the phone in relation to the aid, as in about two inches away and up at a certain angle from your ear. It broke from old age and I got another one from them, the HE 33. It is a piece of junk, I wish I had sent it back in the allotted 45 days. It sounds like a cheap speaker and the telephone setting doesn't work at all. Loud sounds are amplified well and quiet sounds not at all. I have an appointment with an audiologist tomorrow and will be looking at new aids. If you google hearing aids there are lots of cheap ones on the market. I plan to use the info from my visit to help me pick a new cheaper aid. I can't spent $5000 on something unless it is going to make me money in return. Heck I spent less than that on my last truck.
If I'm wearing a hearing aid I must have control over the volume, not some far away computer. I have had them try to sell me something "that will let me hear like a teenager again" The noise is unbelievable! We don't need to hear like teenagers, just some better than what we do now. I tell them, "Nothing goes in to my head that I can't control" Be sure to tell them if you don't like it in any way.
