Sound harshness of modern digital hearing aids?

Your own risk, this is. This is not a medical advice.


If one hears through a test acoustic thethoscope type tube to the sound quality of a modern expensive (2Keur) "state of art" digital hearing aid, it is a very revealing surprise. Prepare your self for the most harsh sound possibly ever heard. One may argue that earring impaired subjects need much treble. Yes but what kind of treble quality. Not obviously the chewing sand digital quality.


Immediately after an almost broken analog hearing aid was compared that was supposed to be somewhat unclear in sound reproduction due to a possibly defective speaker. It sounded much better, immediate, humane, and quick as the speed of light.


It is not a fault of the big companies. The consumer desides to buy. And consumers also expect Bluetooth connection with their portable "smart" devices. And the engineers are doing their best trying to please the marketing department which is turn is doing its best to please the customer.


How many thousand transistors are in a modern hearing aid?
