Yes, I am aware. I remember when I first bought my Mores, and my audiologist was setting them up for me. I told her that in the quiet of her clinic, I understood her better with the ‘Focused’ VOE. We found that a bit odd. Since Genie states that the ‘Aware’ VOE provides greater (well!) awareness of everything in an easy environment, we decided to stick with ‘Aware.’ I believe the whitepaper says something different, though, suggesting that the outer ear’s anatomy plays a more significant role. I’m going to stick with ‘Balanced’ for a while and see how it goes.
