Hearing aid and Wireless Accessories

All hearing aids consist of three basic components: a microphone, an amplifier, and a speaker (also called the “receiver”). Where these are placed on the device varies by style, as does the internal circuitry that determines the sound quality and critical sound-processing features — like background noise reduction or spatial mapping (a feature that helps you to better understand the source of sound). Keep in mind that not all styles are suitable for all degrees of hearing loss.
Choosing the right hearing aid depends on the type of lifestyle that you live. Click here to see what lifestyle you fit into: Hearing Aid Comparison.
