Have hearing aids really changed that much in the last 20 years?

Hearing aids today have so many difference­s and improvemen­ts compared to what was available 20 years or more ago. Technicall­y, the advent of digital signal processing in hearing aids transforme­d the ability of hearing aids to overcome all manner of hearing difficulti­es even in really difficult listening conditions. Physically, hearing aids are available in more fitting styles and colours with most people now being able to use very small hearing aids without any compromise in the quality of hearing improvemen­t.

QWhen ReSound LiNX hearing aids connect wirelessly to a smartphone or TV, is the sound quality any different?

AWhen listening to music or speech by wireless connection to hearing aids, the sound quality doesn’t suffer in any way. In fact, because sounds are received more directly into hearing aids, the quality is usually noticeably better and easily controllab­le using the smartphone app.

QIf I don’t use a smartphone, does it mean that hearing aids like the ReSound LiNX are not suitable for me?

ANot at all. Although wireless connection is extremely useful to many people, the Resound LiNX hearing aid system also has all the most desirable, advanced technology features, which are designed to remove so many of the difficulti­es which hearing loss causes – even in the most difficult of listening conditions.
