There are 2 main decisions that need to be made when ordering a hearing aid:
Size and Circuit
1) Hearing Aid Sizes
Hearing Aid Sizes 2) Three Types of Circuits
Good- Basic, Standard Technology. Has manual volume control. Amplifies everything equally, including background noises. Least expensive technology.
Better- Computerized "semi-automatic"- will still maintain a volume control, however it has compression capabilities to help soften loud, background noises. Our most popular circuit.
Best- Digital instrumentation. Most sophisticated hearing aid available. Usually fully automatic with no volume control.
