Headphones for Hearing Loss (Mark WU6R)

Elecraft mailing list


Shu,


I have pretty severe hearing loss and my solution is a behind the ear Bluetooth controlled hearing aid that has an accompanying smart phone app that allows me to boost or otherwise customize on the fly bass, mids, and treble.  Additional on the fly customizable features include noise reduction, speech focus, and wind noise reduction.  Mine is also lithium battery-powered and rechargeable which is a big convenience.  Although it isn't a complete fix to the problem, it is a real big improvement.  It is a major improvement over my previous in-the-ear hearing aid.  I'm happy to share more details if you are interested.


Regards,
Mark WU6R

My Philips hearing aids (Costco sourced) work well under my Yamaha CM500
headphones and have all the aforementioned control capabilities. I didn’t
opt for rechargeable batteries as the feature did not appear cost
effective.
