I think a couple of folks have the right idea. The ear buds are removing a good chuck of the background noise with the noise canceling. So that’s part of the reason.
In my case urs, why? Because I pushed because i wanted my life back. I was raised to not accept what people say, I was raised to push to know for sure. I was also raised to trust my guts, or just that inter feel of right and wrong. I was raised to walk the path that no one else would attempt. You call it whatever you wish, i call it my inter compass.
My great grandmother and grandmother called it listening to my spirit’s guidance. It has lead me and guided me in the right direction my whole life.
I think i know why. We’re not the manufacturer’s client. The hearing instrument specialist is like a mechanic who fixes all makes of cars.
In our case, the hearing instrument specialst has to understand our hearing disability and has to setup the hearing aids before we get them.
