Treehugger....I agree. I just got my aids and the test showed that I am deficient in the highs but my middle and low hearing is pretty good ...(typical for musicians)..... My hearing aids have vented earpieces to allow the middle and low frequencies to enter without it going through the electronics of the hearing aids, and just the highs are restored. I find my stereo sounds better than I can remember it ever sounded.....singers are placed absolutely between the speakers, openness is retained, ....all good. When I use my earphones Sennheiser 650's, I feel no need for the aids....I was told thats because the drivers are so close to my eardrum.
Sabai.....The name of the company is RESOUND. I don't know if they are good or not, but they seem to work well, and don't intrude with my music. I'm a pro musician and that was a prime concern to me.
PS....my model is a behind the ear gizmo with a earpiece that is highly vented to let in the lows and middle frequencies. The highs are boosted, but it comes with a remote control that works with Blutoothe with various "programs" ...one of which is "music" ( number 3 on my remote) that is flat to accommodate as much of the music as possible. It does a very credible job. The other programs are for very noisy environments (restaurants et al) and a "normal" program for most listening during the day. I don't see a model number on the device.
