I currently have "behind the ear" Unitron hearing aids that are about six years old. After shopping around lately I have noticed that the new hardware is half the size of my current set, and almost twice as powerful. My question is; what brands of HA's are known to be reliable and of good quality? My Unitron set has not given me any issues, but I have a set of Starkey "in the ear" HA's that have been sent in numerous times for repair. I know I definitely do not want Starkey, but wouldn't mind another set of Unitron's as these have never given me problems. Any advice is appreciated and I will be searching the forums to help find answers as well. Thanks!
