Morning!

Wondering if anyone knows of any 9mm Open Domes that are compatible with a Oticon OPN MiniRITE?

I have a standard high-frequency loss so I’m assuming open domes are preferred to let low frequencies in naturally. (Sorry for not posting my audiogram, haven’t had a chance to get it yet.)

I’ve been using 8mm open domes, which work but I get whirring/warbling from the feedback shield kicking in. I tried a 10mm dome and it was not was too large and I could not really get it in my ear. When I did, it lessened the feedback, but seemed to cut the high-frequency tones but that may have been a fit.

I’m a little stuck as I din’t really want to go to a non-open dome as I feel that doesn’t make sense with my hearing loss and I like having natural lows, but the feedback shield is annoying.

Help? Any 9mm out there? I found one (9mm Magic Dome), but it doesn’t say it is compatible with Oticon.

My wife uses Phonak Domes on Oticon miniFit. Do a search here.

Buy an adjustable leather punch and punch holes in a single dome model. You can determine what prevents feedback and lets the most bass through for your loss.

Phonak seems to follow the standard 8mm, 10mm, 13mm sizing. :confused:

The idea is good, but this seems like it lacks the consistancy of having a dome that is the same all the time.
