What Brand Of Hearing Aids Are Audiophiles Using?


This isn't a joke, so please no things like:  no wonder you own Mac or GE or I knew you were deaf, you get the idea.  I have been to an ENT already (my ears were professionally cleaned) and had a hearing test scheduled with an Audiologist but it has been cancelled until our stay at home order is lifted hopefully by the middle of May.  I have done 2 online tests and have found I am not hearing anything above 11K.  At 67 years old, I thought my hearing was still ok as I can hear differences in changes of equipment, cables, etc.

I would like to hear from other audiophiles either here or via a PM if you are too embarrassed as to what brand you recommend to give me a good sound.  A friend said he won't use his hearing aid when listening to his system because everything sounds tinny.   So, there you have it, any helpful response would be appreciated, as I am sure I am not the only one

You guys have been fantastic and have really given me some things to think about.  The Oticons sounds like something I would want to go with if I need to, but the price, ouch!  If my hearing ability is 11K at best, how come I can still hear the snap in the treble, lush midrange, etc.?  How come I can still hear differences in cables and platforms and such if I can't hear that high anymore?  What to you guys think?
