A fitting report is on my profile
QuickSIN = 12

I’ve attached two images of two seperate fitting reports. Image A was when my HAs were fitted using REAL ear method, image B was after the REAL ear fitting was erased, factory default restaired then fitted by my audiologist using NON REAL method.

What is the x-axis, 310, 850, 1.5K etc
What is the y-axis MPO, G80, G65, G50 etc

I struggle greatly to hear at retail & grocery store checkouts, fast food counters, and of course restaurants and bars. I have the Roger Select iN microphone which helps.

Today I did a walk thru with a db meter of Walmart (46db/58db) and a grocery store (55db/76db) to get an understanding of what the noise levels are and why I can’t hear.

I’m hoping my audiologist can do some tweaking but I want a better understanding of what needs twesking to assist me.

X is frequencies

Y is Maximum Power Output & 80dB, 65dB, 50dB etc.

I find too much NoiseBlock actually reduces the ability to hear speech as it doesn’t just reduce noise, it also reduces speech.

SoundRelax is the only thing I do find useful in terms of being in a Supermarket and it doesn’t reduce speech for me. I have a program with SoundRelax on max.

I have M70 and P70.

There is an YouTube video by Dr. Cliff AuD explaining fitting reports.
