Well that shows that you were not working with an audiologist and ENT physician. The audiologist will give you several hearing tests and map out which frequencies need to be boosted. A modern in ear hearing aid is programmed to in amplify the frequencies that you are deficient in and only boost each frequency band by the correct amount.

So go pro and get yourself a good audiologist.

My left ear is totally dead. No external aid on earth is going to work. This is from a USA audiologist. A tuning fork held against the mastoid bone produced a LOUD tone. That was when I had 40% hearing loss in that ear. Now any attempt to produce understandable speech using the ear canal is ineffective. People standing close to me can hear buzzing amplified sound.

I guess you missed the part about the 32 band equalizer.

I am in México México not México Missouri.

Hearing aids down here cost two thousand dollars 3 months worth of income and there is no meaning ZERO guarantee spending that amount of money will bring an improvement in music listening quality.

I need to read stuff from a mastoid bone hearing aid wearer who is nearly deaf and does not limit themself to TV situation comedy audio.

Genius doctors were unaware that pneumonia inoculation protects against repeated inner ear infections (JAMA ) I suffered 5 infections requiring injections of antibiotics with follow up oral antibiotics but by then I was deaf.

I cannot afford a thousand dollar trial and error of hearing aids. And audio exams are limited to speech hearing. I need to hear stuff from a perspective of reality. Not like listening to Strauss over a telephone.

I don’t know if this is any help but I have Costco KS6 aids – a Made for Iphone aid. With an iPhone’s setting, you can adjust treble and bass. You can also stream from the phone’s microphone. That should give you access to an equalizer along with using a microphone that can be located by or near the person you are communicating with. That may give you a clear voice to concentrate on.

I have moderate hearing loss and I know that many people don't want to wear hearing aids, but I bought ones that are worn completely in the canal (I was suggested by an audiologist). I should say, it is easy to find and choose hearing aid supplies online if you consulted with an ear doctor beforehand. Yes, I had to get used to my new hearing aids, but I feel confident, and in most cases, people don't even notice them.

You do realize this thread is well over a year old and was brought back from the dead?

There are situations that hearing aids do not work or are not tolerated by the wearer.

My Dad had to get a hearing aid back in his early 50's, there were times it was helpful to him and then there were times that they just amplified way to much background noise and he just had to turn it off. The best one he had was a simple analog hearing aid that the audiologist prescribed it to be made.

The worst one he had was the "digital" version, he never could get it adjusted correctly and went back to wearing his old analog one until it died. After that, he quit wearing a hearing aid.

They are expensive and there is zero guarantee that they will work for the wearer, you can keep going back and have adjustments made with newer aids but sometimes it just doesn't work out.

There is no substitute for the natural real ear, take good care of your ears, wear hearing protection when around loud noises..
