I am trialing a new pair of Widex dream 440s right now and have worn the same kind for 7 years and asked my audiologist which she thought was best for speech comprehension because of course that is the most important need with hearing aids and she said there are about the same. She said because I am used to Widex that I should probably just stay with that brand but I don’t care to change brands. I just want to be able to understand my 6 year old granddaughter. And that was becoming more difficult with the older Widex I had.
Last week I had to have an adjustment and saw a different audiologist and asked her the same question and she said hands down the Oticon is better for speech comprehension so now I think I should trial them even though they are quite a bit more expensive and I’m not sure which Oticons they are.
I would like options from you all because you all know so much more about these things than me and I would appreciate any advice you could give me.
Sorry this is so long and thank you.
