Just wondered what your thoughts were on your Bose hearing aids after a bit of wear?

How does your arranger sound live…happy with the sound?

I tried a pair of $5k Phonak hearing aids….loved everything about them but my instrument voices sounded weird.

Thoughts?

Absolutely no problems at all with the keyboard sounds. The main problem with most hearing aids is the block completely block the ear canal, thereby robbing you of the natural hearing that still exists and amplifying the frequencies you were having trouble hearing. Keep in mind that if you order them from Bose, they have a very liberal return policy for a full refund. Normally, hearing aids cannot be returned, even if they do not work out for your needs.

Give them a try - I think you will be amazed.

Good luck,

Gary

Gary, since my right ear can no longer hear sounds I asked Bose if I can purchase one , instead of the pair. I was told I had to buy both.
Not good,other companies will sell you the one hearing aid.

Thx all

Got a call from the audiologist. He just got in a pair of Phonak Paradise Life hearing aids that I’m trying…cost is uhgg 🤭

We’ll see how they work. My retirement program says they’ll pay for them…😒

We’ll see

My wife just got a pair of Bose hearing aids and she said she now hears sounds she has not heard in more than 40 years. At one point she said she was hearing a static sound, but discovered it was my oxygen generator, which she apparently never heard prior to now. Amazing!

guitpic, that's a really heavy price tag for those hearing aids, $3,300 to $5,000 a pair, compared to the Bose for $849 a pair. I hope they have a liberal return policy.

Good luck,

Gary

Good info.

The Phonaks(second pair I tried) didn’t work out.

I just ordered the Bose hearing aids.

I hope they work out for you.

I would have thought the Bluetooth thing should be a no brainer, otherwise you are faced with having to pull them out every time you wanted to listen to music or a streaming device, and then put them back in when done for normal use.

I would bet Bose are working on a new model…

Initial impression 👍

These sound much more natural to me than the Phonaks I tried.

When listening to my phone or other streaming media device, I don’t have to turn it up nearly as loud to get a good sound.

These things sound close to my Bose AirPods which I will have to use if I don’t want anyone else to hear.

More later.
