As a More1 user who has just had Neural Noise Suppression reduced from 10dB to 8dB, I have to, reluctantly, agree with this assessment. My More1s don’t appear to be smart enough to apply GoldiLock’s “just the right amount” of noise attenuation.
The expression “more than the client would like to lose” is a perfect description. The higher setting does seem to dampen the soundscape perceptibly (although I can’t say that @ubabopepton 's description rings a bell - ‘fullness of the ear’ doesn’t do it).
Even though my hearing aids are provided to me by VAC, I paid $1,500 extra out of my own pocket to get the Clear Dynamics feature and the extra Neural Noise suppression. I’m p1$$ed! I’m pretty sure that More2 would have worked just as well for my loss and lifestyle, for hundreds of dollars less!!
ClearDynamics is worth extra to me, as a professional musician, because it allows me to practice on my musical instruments and and rehearse my material without the input stage of my HAs getting overdriven and clipping. But I don’t think I need or like 10dB of noise reduction, since it does seem to subtly mute my entire soundscape by aggressively eliminating any amplitude peaks present. This presents to the ear what the Great Plains present the eye.
In fact, in typing this post, I’ve gravitated to the point - based on 6 months’ experience with More1s - that anyone looking at the options of More 1, 2, or 3 give strong consideration to More 2 and the degree to which this technology level shares features with More1. If you are really bothered by loud noises, or have a loss that requires an extended range of all the adjustment parameters available, you may have no choice but to go for More1s.
If your BrainHaring is pretty good, however, and if you’re able to focus your mind on the speakers and sounds you want to hear without much “machine assistance”, then you may be perfectly well-served by More2s.
I have found that the lack of the ClearDynamics feature on the More3, and other weaker, but poorly-explained parameters and features, are deal breakers for me, personally. But, as I’ve said in other threads: if music doesn’t play a significant role in your everyday hearing, you may be able to get by with More3.
