[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3759610, member: 5412"] Your issue is a simple adjustment by a professional audiologist. The range of your aids is too sharp. The audiologist needs to dampen down the higher frequencies which will fix those issues of sitting in a percussion section. Evidently the person setting your aids up didn't know what they were doing or didn't pay attention to the frequency graph you generate when taking a hearing test. That test should show where your losses are and graph it. The audiologist will tune them accordingly. Most aids these days are self tunable via an app on your phone. I had some issues with my Starky's that the VA provides me and sent them in for repair while using my old ones. When they came back they were exactly like yours, but I got into the app, tuned them to eliminate the Jimi Hendrix feedback concert that was going on in my ears to be as comfortable as they can be. . I don't know where your loss is so I'm just offering suggestions from my experience of loss and aids since our government caused mine in the 70's. [/QUOTE]
