Self programming? Not sure how much longer I can deal with the "muffleness" of the compression

The NAIDA Q50 I’m wearing apparently is the last model that had full digital linear, so its settings wouldn’t really benefit me all that much in the new B90s. All hearing aids since the Q series have done away with that and have wide dynamic range compression without the ability to do digital linear or turn off compression entirely, from what I’ve been told. Even a compression setting of 1 is the least compression (which is where I’m already at), but you still have some compression.

No, you can make the Bs sound just like the Qs. The linear options are the same (you couldn’t really turn off compression in the Qs completely either, they still used WDRC at the top rather than clipping like old analogues). Again, if you have a functional set of Qs that sound good to you, it should not be hard to just match the Bs to them in the testbox.
