Subject :  Are open fit appropriate for me
posted by soundtrack on Thu Apr 1, 2010 8:37 am
I am doing a trial of some Bernafon Verites at this time which are
receiver in the ear aids. I am using the tulip tip with these aids. I'm
wondering if with my loss, regular open fit aids would still be an option
for me because I might like the sound of those better. Could someone
please advise.

Question two is, if I need the receiver in the ear aids, what tip do I need.
I think the tulip tip is occluding, especially in combination with the
receiver in the ear piece. Is there another tip I could use given my loss?
I have listed my hearing audiogram below.

250 R-10 L-10
500 R-10 L-10
750 R-65 L-55
1000 R-65 L-60
2000 R-60 L-50
4000 R-45 L-35
8000 R-55 L-35
