I don't have the cash on hand to switch brands of hearing aids. I am pretty sure that she would hear it the exact same as what I am hearing. This is noise that is getting added by the microphones. I am pretty sure of tht since it is not present when using the Com Pilot.

1) Talking to me from a different room 2) Talking with food in the mouth 3) Mumbling 4) Turning their head in a different direction 5) People with heavy accents calling me on the phone AFTER I have told the annoying company to use native English operators. 6) People who say 'Huh?' when you tell...

I found that picture a long time ago and showed it to some buddies who understand my hearing loss a little better than most. We laughed till we thought we would pass out.

I am currently wearing a pair of Naida Q50 UPs and I hate them. If I wanted for everyone to sound like a robot, I would watch a science fiction movie.

Here's some of my stuff. The Marshall is a 1980 50 Watt MKII Master Volume head. SG is a 93, Strat is 65th anniversary MIM with EMGs, The one with the autograph is a 1985 Kramer Baretta. Got Satriani's autograph on it a while back (That's another picture I'll post when I can find it), Tele is...

I have heard that Eric Clapton has profound loss of hearing.

My biggest complaint is that my audiologist has no clue what I am talking about when I tall her my Naida Q50s make everything sound robotic. She thinks it is me or my molds. I invited her to listen to them herself but she won't do it.

I have been a musician most of my life. I started on drums at the age of 10 and then guitar very soon after. I played clubs in the Chicago area a lot in the late 70s through the 90s playing rock, blues, and classics. My hearing started to get pretty bad when I hit my late 30s and is still...

Thanks Lau2046 I just realized I had the model wrong. They are Naida Q50 UP. I spent over 2 hours with my audiologist recently and still haven't got the crap worked out of them. She said she tried every single thing available that could be configured on them. She even talked to someone from...

Pros? Cons? I had another set of Phonak hearing aids for the last 7 years and loved them and the sound quality. Yesterday, I got a brand new pair of Phonak Naida Q70 BTE hearing aids and absolutely hate they way they sound. I am a musician and these things make my guitar sound like I am...

I have been collecting and playing guitars since the early 70s. I also play bass and drums. As a result of my hearing aids, I am the only one on the praise team at Church that gets a wedge monitor on the stage. All others use in ear monitors.

I had to fly to Fort Worth from Chicago and back over the last week and something very strange happened. On the way back while ascending, I had a terrible case of vertigo where it looked like the plane was going through the air like a spiraled football throw. It eventually passed but then...

My quote: "When I tell you my hearing is bad and you reply by saying 'What?', I will have to punch you."

If you have any hearing left at all,I would highly suggest using some good ear plugs. I am a long time musician myself and the two Phonac BTE hearing aids I am am wearing right now would probably not be there if not for the over exposure to My Marshall Amp (It goes to 11 ;) ) and loud drums...

The first post here is at least a little interesting to me just knowing that people are trying to do something about tinnitus. The constant raging noise in my head makes me feel completely helpless at times. Someone else said they don't mind the deafness but the tinnitus is what they hate. I...

I am hearing also but with a considerable amount of loss. I would put the people who are hearing into the 'Yes - Before AND after hearing loss' category since I'm not sure how to modify the selections that are already listed. I guess I wasn't very specific as to what I considered hearing loss.

I'm sure this has probably been touched on here before but I am very new here and would really like to know. :stupid: I've already talked with Alex and understand that we have a lot in common with our guitar playing. I also play drums, bass and keyboards. I'm really interested to know how...

Alex, I recantly started wearing 2 phonak BTEs. They have a musician's program built into them. I actually have 3 programs on them. The default one will filter everything above a particular decibel level that is outside of the normal frequency range of the human voice. This is great for me...

I live in Schererville Indiana. Extreme North/West Indiana. It is only 30-40 minutes from Chicago. I love Chicago but the I have never seen worse drivers, ruder people, and racism any worse than there and it is spilling over the border into this part of Indiana now. For now, Schererville...

Danke schön That's about all I remember from my German class in High School.
