Halleluiah for the digital age. In the past, hearing aids worked of the old analogue system where feedback, whistling and problems with volume where the norm. Thankfully it is very common today to find digital hearing aids which have features that are very impressive. They provide clearer sound and do so through the transformation of sound into numbers or digits, and when these digital hearing aids have computer chips on board as well, it is easy to make use of mathematical formulae which are used on these digits and thus sounds are controlled to give the hearer a better output.



What is a Smart Device?

What is a Smart Device? Your digital hearing aid can digitally process sound which allows them to distinguish between noise and voices. Thus it is now possible to program them to amplify the voice part only and at the same time dampen the noise part of the sounds processed. This is the reason why digital hearing aids produce an extremely clear voice, even when there is loud background noise, this is far superior to what analog hearing aids where capable of.

Digital hearing aids also provide you with a solution to feedback and whistling that plagued the use of the old analogue hearing aids. Forcing you to reduce the volume thereby making it difficult to hear what was going on. . In addition, digital hearing aids can also be made so that they monitor all sounds that enter and exit the hearing aid, and establish whether or not such sounds are feedback, which if it were the case, causes the digital hearing aids to immediately cancel such feedback.

Unfortunately, as is the case with most other electronic products, the better the features of the hearing aid the higher the price. However even the cheaper range of digital hearing aids manage sound efficiently, while the higher-end models give users the ability to hear very faint noises and without any feedback. They may include directional microphones that help in getting rid of surrounding sounds.

It is important that you consult with your specialist to determine exactly what your problem is and be guided as to what the best form of digital hearing aid is suited to your needs. Digital hearing aids are not a one size fits all product, the inner contours of your ear must be taken into account insuring a comfortable fit.

The final cost of your digital hearing aid will depend on your condition and the features you want included, but be assured digital hearing aids are brilliant and I don't think I have met one person who is not absolutely satisfied by the results they have experienced.
