Hi all - what would be the differences and the appropriate use of these different options with widex moment sheer HAs? I am trialing from two places (mostly trialing the service and adjustments to be honest), but the L1 and L2 have a definite level difference, and the L3 is longer, if nothing else. Kind of hard to compare apples to apples, and wondering why I likely got two differring wires on two identical HAs with the same audiogram.
Should be just difference in length if we’re talking receiver wires. They come in lengths 0,1,2,3 and 4. Receivers come in at least a M and a P strength. Often a S and UP is available.
strange - one pair has L1 and M receivers (and R1 or whatever the right is called), and the other has L2 and M receivers (and R2
), and the latter is definitely a lot louder, with same settings…
Not sure which one you’re saying is louder. The left one should have higher gain than the right, but ideally they should sound equally balanced.
yup, I mean the entire pair is louder. Overwhelmingly so. Only difference is the L2 and 2R vs L1 and 1R (which is how I think they’re labeled). At any rate the 1’s and the 2’s are different - the 2’s being louder. I can’t find an explanation.
Odd. Any chance wax is the issue or one pair has filters and the other doesn’t?
The only reason would be they are programmed differently, you’ll only know this by checking in the software, just knowing they used the same audiogram doesn’t mean the programming is the same.
Both have them. One pair is about 6 weeks in my possession and worn regularly, and the other has been in my possession about 2 weeks and worn a couple of times.
I load the same saved session from one pair into the other, so that should create the identical programming, now shared between two sets, correct? Isn’t everything (the programming) contained in that file I’m importing from?, and it populates the hearing aids (as selected when entering compass’s starting page).
It did occur to me that I created programs in the app for both hearing aids when they were NOT the same programming, Perhaps those are the culprit? Somehow the app saves programs (and also deletes some, oddly, seemingly randomly too) when moving back and forth between the same make and model of widex HAs. I thought programs were part of the programming, and NOT app only
Oh it’s you, I thought you had two different sets and programmed by two different clinics, but your DIY on them, but anyways it’s only possible to have a difference if something is “different” on each set.

that’s what I would have thought. makes me wonder if the set I’ve had for 6 weeks needs new filters, or if one or the other is different in the manufacturing stage. I would assume they’ve both been tested with a text box, but who knows?
could you please change/renew the wax filters on the 6 month older set, and then compair again?
