New to the group. I have Kirkland KS 10 hearing aides for a few years. I have noticed my word recognition has gotten worse. I had my testing redone at Costco. Not much difference in my hearing test. Like many I have significant trouble in noisy environments. Even in my quiet environments or using my Sennhauser 175 headphones for TV (which have been super in the past) I am experiencing word recognition struggles depending on the speaker or show.
I had Costco send of my hearing aides to refurbish them. No change.
I am considering trying one of the other hearing aides at Costco to see if that helps.
I am wondering if anyone has used lanyard or clip on assisted listening devices like the REXTON Smart mic to direct focus to the sound source.
Is the general experience for hearing aides that the more expensive hearing aides ?? $4000, 5000 ?? over significant improvement over the $1400- 1500 hearing aide products offered by Costco, Sorry about multiple topics in this posting. Just trying to get more complete info on my hearing issues for feedback.
Thanks
