I was doing some internet searching for information related to HA compression speeds for those struggling to understand words and came across this research paper which made some interesting points. So I am sharing this here and hopefully this will be interesting/beneficial to others.
Here are a couple of points from the document that I found interesting.
Speech in noise is an issue for all of us, so the settings above are what they say we should aim for .
And some settings for speech in quiet.
It is interesting that in all the years I have had HAs, not a single Audi/HAD has mentioned compression speeds as a factor than can help.
I use Phonak, and the above suggests Phonak is the least appropriate for someone looking to use slow compression.
I hope you find this useful.
