    Cochlear Implant: Best Technology Myth

    What I was getting at, is that many claim their chosen brand is best, yet nearly all of those folks have never used the other brand. The are a few people a with a different brand on each side, or had one brand device removed and replace with another. But outside of that I stand by my thread...

    Cochlear Implant: Best Technology Myth

    I'm not in the CI banner waving club. So I'm not up on this constant one upsmanship between companies. Only sharing what I know about my own experiences.

    Cochlear Implant: Best Technology Myth

Instead huge improvement when I went to 1200 and after using 900 and 1200 for a few months discovered my speech scores were best @900. So you can have too much of a good thing... Heh

    Cochlear Implant Life-Long Commitment

    Had the opposite experience. I go days, weeks, months and over a year on one side without using it and there is no difference when I put it back on again. Everything sounds like the last time I used it

    CIs and Music

    Personal experience is that music with my Cochlear brand CI sucks. Would be even worse for an audiofile or musician. But YMMV. For every comment like mine you will find someone that says the complete opposite about the same brand and model.

    In need of advice

    Learning to sign can only help. In no way can it have a detrimental effect. It sounds like you need a full, comprehensive hearing exam. What have the Speech and Language Pathologists said? BTW I have Asperger's.

    Ntouch videophone

    I use N-touch one so my number rings to everything. I actually preferred Z mobile app and tried switching to the Zmax. It was such a joke I put it right back in tnt the box. Finally sent it back to them
