    Siemens launches waterproof hearing aid

    I love my Aquaris... when they work! I've had them replaced now over five times, and the batteries still keep on draining within a day, speakers shutting off half-way for no reason, etc. They're coming out of warranty soon and I'm SO sick of having HA's that don't work correctly! They break way...

    Earmold colors?

    Safari, I got the same ones as you. I'm afraid of being allergic to the colored ones.

    Earmold colors?

    I've only owned one pair of earmolds, and I quickly learned that the clear ones get yellow really quickly even when cleaned. I'm thinking about getting colored silicone ones (I don't care who sees them and I wear my hair down!) but I was just curious what colored earmolds look like? Thanks!

    Questions (cleaning molds and tubing)

    Hahaha, thanks :) I just don't know what size tubing to purchase and hope that I can get the tubing into the molds all the way. I guess it'll be a try it yourself of go back to the audio. kind of situation!

    Questions (cleaning molds and tubing)

    I'm not a he, and I figure that I have to learn how to re-tube myself anyways. So how do I disconnect and re-connect the tubing? Haha.. I'm sure once I do it the first time, I can do it easily after again when I need to. I also do know of the services provided with my ha's, but the earmolds and...

    Just missed accidents without hearing aids on

    Reading these posts is really an eye opener for me, as I wasn't exactly one to quickly admit that I needed my hearing tested. I used to be a professional horseback rider (teaching kids, riding other people's horses, etc.) and I can't say how many times I've missed someone say "heads up!" due to...

    Siemens launches waterproof hearing aid

    I actually have the Aquaris. I got them right after their release since I wasn't satisfied with the quality of the previous trial pair of Phonaks which I had (flimsy battery door, a lot of static from my hair, etc.) I love the Aquaris! I did have one minor problem due to the sound being...

    Questions (cleaning molds and tubing)

    So I've finally gotten a pair of HAs and molds which work - hopefully now I'll actually be able to hear in class this year without having to struggle to follow conversations! Still being quite new to this, I've got a few quick questions that if anyone could answer, I'd really appreciate! I'll...

    Best liked make/models?

    No, I know that there's no *best* make and/or model, however there is likely a most preferred make and/ or model based upon user reviews ;) I have the Solanas, and I like them, but I don't *love* them. Just trying to get ideas before my trial period is up :)

    Colour choice!

    I have had the purple for a few weeks and never get sick of their color. Then again, it is my favorite color and you can't really see it through my hair. The colors of the audio shoes are listed on their website. If I remember correctly, I don't believe that they come in purple.

    Best liked make/models?

    Rose, I believe it's the MicroM. Everything sounds tinny and there is so much static. I do hear better without a doubt, but I'm just curious how much of this issue could be fixed. Certain voices also have an echo/ring to them. Hrm...

    Best liked make/models?

    What make and model aid does everyone wear? I just got the Phonak Solanas and I'm not loving them unfortunately. Although I'm hoping it's just an adjustment which needs to be done, can anyone recommend something for someone with a loss in the 60s-80's range across the chart? I'm totally new to...

    I got my new Purple HA Today!

    You mean I'm not this only one this happens to?! No joke - I thought it was just something I've dealt with for a long time alone!

    Hair + HA = loud noises?

    Thanks for the ideas. I use conditioner, I just have lots of hair. I can't cut it without it looking awkward because it's curly. The longer tube sounds like a good idea, and I'm hoping that programming could fix this. It's so overly frustrating because they DO work and for the first time I think...

    New Phonak Spice

    I just got the Solana Micro M (in the same color too). Might I ask how helpful the volume button is? I asked for this to be included in mine, however my audiologist assured me that the volume can also be adjusted by the programs button. Now mine don't have the up and down volume button, and only...

    I got my new Purple HA Today!

    I just got purple ones too. Them being new, I had them out for a few minutes during class lectures because I got a headache, and my classmate stated "WHOA, they're PURPLE?!" Hah!

    Hair + HA = loud noises?

    Hi all, so I'm very new to this. I picked up my first pair of HAs recently and noticed that having long hair, every time I move my head and my hair goes over the mic, all I hear is static and crackling noises. My audiologist assures me that this can be fixed by tweaking the programming. Has...
