Excellent for Mild Hearing Problems
I have nerve deafness in mid range and understand from the audiologist that this is a very difficult to set up a program under the old technology. So, I spent $2,100 per ear to get one of the best units with four software programs, one for normal conversation, one for high noise levels, one for soft voices, and one for reflected sound in a restaurant. I had these units for 7 years and they steadily became more difficult. I would run to the audiologist, pay big bucks and have the program readjusted, and volume turned up. All this time and trouble and all people had to do was yell. Then I saw Walker's Ultra Ear Hearing Enhancer at Amazon.com. It had its own volume control, tone control, and compression circuit. That is everything I need, at a terrific price. So I bought a set for myself and one set for my wife. When I got it, it didn't work at all. Then I found that the little instruction manual for this product shows the battery incorrectly installed. That will cause many customers much frustration. If your unit doesn't work no matter what you do, turn the battery around. That said, once you have the battery in the right position adjustments are needed. This little computer has surprising power. For my ear problem, I have turned the sound volume all the way down, and the tone control on high. That enhances what I can hear and my level of hearing is comfortable. As the battery runs down, just turn up the volume. This little computer must be part of the new technology. I do not remember finding something like this years back. It is powerful and ideal for me. Thank you Amazon for your astute study of new products.
