I just got an Oticon Chili. My audio pretty much only goes through Oticon now, they claim Phonak's gone downhill and Starkey doesn't do well connectivity-wise.
I loved my Sumos. Like a diesel truck, which is what I need. I don't have my graph handy, but it's about a 90db loss, from birth (41 yrs ago). For some reason, Oticon saw fit to make the Chili's a little less powerful and more complicated.
Trying to replicate what I got on the Sumos and it's proving difficult. Sounds are a bit muddy, it's almost impossible to tolerate crowds, very difficult to understand people in the car, etc.
Also, anyone else experienced a clicking noise when holding an iPhone up to your ear in telecoil mode? Makes it difficult to understand on the phone. And yes, the iPhone is in "hearing aid mode".
