Hearing aid fitting question

i’m not looking forward to having to perhaps look for another HA.
I’m looking for suggestions about a specific topic though.
How do I explain to an audiologist or HIS in technical and layman’s language that I don’t want the HA to censor (as I call it) loud noise like concerts, music over speakers, etc.??
I don’t want any compression, cutting out, mufflling, whatever changes to the loud sound – I want the sound to come in as it is.
I don’t live near an airport and 95-99% of the time music events or concerts are nowhere near as loud as during the 70s or 80s. I’d usually remove my HA anyway and get as close as I could. And HAs don’t generally process music well.
Suggestions, advice anyone??
Thank you!!

Hmmmm should I answer this one too, I seem to be stalking you ; )
But music program has all the extra features turned off, music is indeed a hard one to get right, maybe you just need a more linear fitting?
