I have severe to profound hearing loss in both ears, average around 90 decibels, and I use digital hearing aids without a problem. I can speak, hear people speaking (combine with lipreading to make out what they're saying), listen to music and hear the world. Oh, and I was born deaf.
In some frequencies, I have about 80 decibels of hearing loss, in others I have over 110 decibels of hearing loss (mostly the high frequency range, between 3 KHz to 8 KHz).
The hearing aids I use are the brand new Phonak Nadia 5 SP. I hated dealing with the VR in my state in the past so I skipped them and paid for the new pair all by myself. It's almost like buying a new car, except instead of gas prices, I worry about battery prices.
