1. what hearing aids do you wear? Oction Sumos DX 2. How good are they? Very good, I like them very much. 3. Do they help you hear everything you want? Pretty much everything. I do rely on lipreading though, I can't talk on the telephone, because I can't see the other person's lips...

Hear again, you are always so sweet and wise. How old are you? :)

Congratulations! How wonderful! :)

:laugh2:

:laugh2: Funny!

I get along very well with my parents and my sisters. :)

You all are great!

I apologize hear again. I am a bit new at this. I linked a picture of what I thought the smartlink looked like. I realize now that you were talking about the receiver part that attaches to the hearing aid. Alicia was thinking exactly right. The transmitter is more like a handheld cell...

Really? I thought it was like this... Or is there one that goes onto your hearing aid?

:giggle: I remember when I was about 12 or 13 and my audi (the same one I still go to today) showed me this huge old box that was the fm system. I said "no thank you," and got out of there fast! :laugh2:

I think this one is my audi's old one. He is just lending it to me so I can see if I like the idea of using a fm transmitter. If I buy one it will be brand new and probably the Smartlink one. I have a hatis too. It is for my home phone. How do you get it to work with your music? The jack...

I wonder why the young D/HH people you know think FM systems are overrated? Is it because they derive little or no benefit from them? I hope I don't upset anyone by saying this, but I think FM systems can be helpful for *some* individuals who have mild to moderate or moderate to severe hearing...

Well, I am old already and I want to use it. :lol: I am actually excited to try it out in my college classes. I am currently taking courses for my Masters Degree and this device could really come in handy. If only I had known about it when I was younger and in Highschool or first starting...

Thanks girls, I wonder if my audi has a smartlink that I could try out instead of this one. I will email him tomorrow. :)

Is it the same kind of noise compression that the digital hearing aids have nowdays? I was not fond of that feature.:aw:

Thank you Alicia! You have been very helpful. That is the receiver I am leaning towards to purchase. If you don't mind my asking, how much was your smartlink and where did you get it from? Thanks!

It is an older version I believe. It is called Phonak Microlink. It does not have bluetooth, which I want. :) A quick question. Does the smartlink do a noise compression? If you are in a noisy situation does it automatically try to reduce the noise? I was wondering about that?

No way! I'd go for the body parts that way he could never cheat again! :lol:
