ReSound Omnias with M&RIE Receivers

On the M&RIE receivers, they are long enough that I can’t really get them deep into my ear canals. When I get my own HA’s and M&RIE receivers, I will have to post a photograph of what the molds look like with the receivers embedded. So, I might not be getting the maximum pinna effect as the mics on the receivers are noticeably out of my ear canal whereas ReSound says for best effect, the M&RIE receivers should be as deep into your ear canal as possible.

Here’s a picture of my right ear wearing the ReSound M&RIE receiver in a custom mold made for my right ear. The mic on the M&RIE receiver can be seen on the receiver just below where the wire enters the receiver and the mic is surrounded on all sides by the lip on the mold opening and recessed a few mm into that opening. The molds are actually very translucent silicone. The dark appearance is from the relative darkness of my interior ear canal. (Click on image to enlarge).
