Hi again. My trial journey goes on. I recently received the Phonak Virto titanium. I wanted to trial obligatory a CIC-HA. Unfortunately all my settings are gone, new hearing aids mean that you can’t transfer these settings, it has to be done again. It’s a pity, because I got used to my Audeo M90. First impressions:
- the pros: positive first impression, small HA, almost invisible (I have the power receiver) excellent wearing confort, perfect sitting in the canal (I absolutely notice no difference to my custom molds, the vent is almost the same), sound not so high pitched as the Audeo, absolutely no feedback, no wind noise
-the cons: slightly intenser occlusion, no connectivity (not so important to me), no button for volume/program (I know it can be ordered, but my audiologist means that it’s not so important, my audeo is working almost all the time on Autosense), no possibility for home setting with Noah
All in one an impressive HA. I’m a little bit disappointed because of the settings. I was quite happy with what I achieved with the Audeos, my audi told me we can’t transfer the setting to the virtos.
Now my questions to you.
-
The Virto has the same marvel platform as the Audeo, so I concluded it’s possible to achieve the same hearing experience with them? It’s just a matter of setting. Am I wrong?
-
What other negative aspects do I have if I choose CIC vs, BTE, other than smaller battery and no connectivity (important for me is the sound quality).
Thanks.
