Choosing new receivers for Audeo M70

Hearing Aid Self-Fitting and Adjusting [DIY]
1

I was given four second hand Audeo Marvel M70-R hearing aids, and thanks to the help and advice from you guys, I have now diy programmed them.

It looks like I will have to buy new receivers because, apparently, my friend’s mother (RIP) was smaller than I am at 6’1.5".

I have been advised, (thank you, White Hat), that I need to choose between Cerustop and Cerushield, with the former being generally preferred. I would appreciate any additional input on that.

Also, I was considering getting P receivers. It seem that S, M, and P are all within acceptable range for my audiogram.

I’m considering P receivers because it seems to me that they might sound better, especially when using Bluetooth to listen to recorded music.

This old thread, Effect of receiver size and Max Power Output on sound quality? discusses the issue and has not convinced me that I wouldn’t be happy with P receivers.

Yeah M or P would be fine going on your audogram, the receiver length is not judged on ones hight as such, it’s basically so you get the HAs sitting at the right place on your ears and a nice parallel with your ear canal.

Thank, I’ve seen pictures of the Phonak version but never a PDF… but are receiver sizes consistent across different manufacturers?
