Dr Cliff, truly enjoy your posts as they are very informative. I currently wear the Widex Evoke Fusion 2 440 hearing aids for which I have had for less than 2 years. With all the accessories I bought I have spent over $6000. I have had to send them back to the manufacturer twice for repair and I am honestly not all that impressed with these hearing aids. My hearing aid specialist just called me and asked me to try the new Moment top of the line model for $7000. I do have severe hearing loss to go along with the fact that I am not exactly rich either. I am 72 years old and have lost most of my vision as well. Any opinions you might consider sharing with me regarding my situation. I would truly appreciate your help. Thanks

Thanks for the video, I found it very beneficial. I agree, the pure sound is legit. I find it most useful in public spaces specifically social. It seems much more versatile in these situations. The in depth explanation about the difference between universal and pure sound makes perfect sense. I have mild hearing loss and have an open dome, glad to learn pure sound is not only my preference but recommended for my situation. I learned a lot, my audiologist was good but this level of detail wasn’t explained during my appointment.

Hi Cynthia, hope you can get my question. I am an amateur musician and wear widex hearing aids since 2016. My problem, playing guitar, piano, or singing is the compressor. Do you have any special programming not to have volume variations in your ears that are not related on how volume are you asking to your instrument. Not sure if I am asking clearly; what happens to me is, for example, when I am singing the hearing aids lower the gain when my voice is loud, also with other instruments, and this is very annoying. Regards

@@SirMannix I have a feeling no hearing aids will be good enough for acoustic musicians . I’m still trying to understand the differences but these have AI learning software. So I’ll be figuring out how to create multiple programs to suit various activities and surroundings. There are 2 interesting settings offered in the package. One is “Pure” and the other is “music”. Both of these will offer a wider range of frequencies and dynamics. I haven’t noticed the volume change on long, loud notes like you mentioned but I’ll be back on stage with the orchestra in 2 weeks. I sure hope they don’t totally spaz out.

@DrCliffAuD
@DrCliffAuD 4 жыл бұрын
The main difference with style like RIC or CIC is acoustics. Venting is incredibly important with hearing aids to prevent the occlusion effect. So is proximity of microphones to prevent feedback issues. These things are easier to address with RIC devices, but in the ear may be required depending on an individuals other needs. Price-wise, there are not many differences in cost between RIC and Custom devices. They may be slightly more expensive due to Earmold impressions or 3D scans, but not massively different.

I am an avid music lover with moderate hearing loss. I love to listen to my vinyl record collection on my audiophile system. However, if I listen with my current hearing aids (not Widex), the music sounds unnatural and overly bright or harsh. Therefore, I listen without my hearing aids and have to play the music at a very high volume in order to get everything I want to hear out of the recording. Do you think the Widex Moment hearing aids would help to make a significant improvement in my listening experiences?

Your videos inspired me to get tested again. I'm 48 now, but when last tested in my 20s I was told I wasn't a great candidate for aids. I saw the audiologist last week who sent me home with the Widex Moment demos. The batteries are dying so fast. You mentioned streaming in your video, so I'm guessing that's why they are dying so quickly. I tend to watch/listen to a lot of videos on my iPhone when I'm cooking and cleaning. Obviously the demos are not rechargeable, but I'm worried about investing in the 440 if I'm going to have battery management issues. Tips?

All other sounds seem fine but voices sound digital and like people are taking through a fan or something. I’m thinking about trialing these Widex even though they will be much more expensive for me. Oticon is covered through my work health insurance but they don’t have Widex. Hopefully they will be worth the extra cost with no distortion.

Out of curiosity, do you know why so many bluetooth hearing aids are only compatible with iPhones? You'd think android would be the main priority since more people use some kind of android device than iPhone
@DrCliffAuD
@DrCliffAuD 4 жыл бұрын
It had to do with the operating systems. Since iOS is a single operating system, it was relatively easier just to make your hearing aids compatible with only iPhones. This continues to be true, however, manufacturers are probably tired of having consumers go with Android compatible devices since Android is the largest market segment.

Hi DR Cliff. I just bought a hummidifier "to put my hearing aids in overnight. I had an older one, and when I put my hearing aids into the older one, it would heat up. This new one doesnint seem to do that. The only thing it does is there's a blue light. I am blind, so unless somebody sighted is there, I cannot tell if my hearing aid drying out. Any help with this work be greatly appreciated.

I am new to hearing aids and I am trying out the widex hearing aids, and I dont know what to think. I did not get them because I am struggling with hearing but to help with tinnitus, and to possibly improve my chances of not having further hearing loss which is with the higher pitches right now. I did not notice any change or improvement in sound when I tried them on, and when I play the acoustic guitar I notice no change in volume. I basically cannot tell when it is on or off. I do not know what I should expect.

I went to a "hearing aid" center/provider, and the result was the recommendation that I needed aids for both ears. My insurance covers 80%, so I wanted the "best" he had available. He prescribed The Memory 440. However, his price was $6600 for the pair. I have seen multiple sites that have listed them $1400 each. Is there something I am failing to see? They both look like the same product. Anyone???

I like the Pure sound option for my Widex Moment hearing aids, but I have a problem with the amount of feedback I get, especially first thing when I put them on. It's so bothersome that I often abandon the Pure setting in favour of the Universal one. But the sound then, while adequate, is not as good as far as the sibilants when I'm listening to TV. What would you recommend?

To cover all the differences, I would probably have to make a very detailed video describing the differences and possible ramifications of going lower in tech level. Otherwise, I will just have to make a general statement of it takes away features and customizability from your hearing care provider when programming them, that could possibly reduce your hearing performance.

I have these hearing aids and I'm so disappointed that right out of the box, the right hearing aid didn't stream calls or music. I had a brief period where it worked and now it no longer does. I paid so much for something that doesn't work at all..... Apple, Android, all have the same issue with this model.

I'm probably going to post my own review of these hearing aids, but I was curious if you had any feedback on my thoughts. I currently have a demo pair of the Widex Moments and am likely going to be buying a pair in about a month, but there are a few things that are quite bad considering the price point. Lets start with the hardware: -The charging case. This is probably the most poorly designed case on any tech device I've ever used. The little flip lid serves no purpose. I have no idea why they didn't design a lid that could actually close around the hearing aids. And on that note, even if I turn off the hearing aids before putting them in the charger, they turn on as soon as they start charging, and remain on if you unplug the charger. This seems like a bug that could easily be fixed with a software update. And it's 2022. Just put a usb-c port on the charger. The software (just like the eargo, this is where most of the problems appear): - The hearing aids sometimes end up out of sync when streaming audio from a Bluetooth device like an iPhone. Disconnecting and reconnecting the bluetooth fixes that, but the reason this happens is that they are each paired as a separate device. Again, it's 2022. Get a better software engineer. If I can buy AirPods for 200 bucks that can do everything on the UX side better, there's a real problem considering the price point here. - The bluetooth signal strength is incredibly weak. Sometimes I'll get interference because my head gets in between my phone and the hearing aid, but sometimes it's fine. I guess I would just say its unreliable. - When using the hearing aids while paired to an iPhone- every time I open an app that has some sort of sound capability, regardless of if there is actually sound being played, the hearing aids will switch their mode into streaming speech or music mode. That means opening instagram, sometimes Facebook, KZfaq etc... they automatically switch modes. Sometimes the switch is delayed, sometimes it happens as soon as the app is opened. It's the unpredictability that is the most annoying though. All that being said, the sound quality and usability of these is leaps and bounds above the eargo hearing aids, and I will likely buy them despite what I listed above.

Just a note on the charger, if not mistaken, you do not need to turn the HAs off before putting them into the charger. They will be switched off once they are in, and turned back on when they are pulled out. Please give it a try.

just got the Widex 440 ote moment pair. I've had hearing aids for over 20 years now for mild loss. last were resound..hated it, app worthless after 2 years. I did research and was thinking about Phonak but the audiologist said they were more expensive than widex and didn't work as well. it appears from reviews out there, they both have issues with their apps. since I got my Widex ones 2 days ago, it feels tunnely just as the old "in the ear" ones used to. I have to turn these widex ones way up to hear the tv and then the clarity falls away until i put it on the music program to hear clearly for the tv. then there is the feedback with my hair sliding over or movement of my head, even when turned down. the wire on the outside is shorter and seems to pop out of place easily. I am not a happy camper with these. my2cents
