Subject : Re: Sonovation Nano Xp aids with DFC (digital frequency compression)... posted by kooch on Tue Aug 15, 2006 8:53 pm |
| I trialed a pair of these a year ago... 10 year old DFC technology installed on obscenely overpriced mid-range conventional aids (obsolete Gennum chip, Toccata platform)... When the DFC is operating properly, you think you're talking with Daffy Duck... the phonemes and sibilants are bouncing off your face, you want to wipe the speaker's spittle off your nose... Unfortunately, the aids always went out of adjustment after an hour or less... After a year of heavy thought, I have developed a foolproof method for determining if you are going to be satisfied with Sonovation products: 1. Call Sonovation's audie dept., and have them recommend two or three audies, within a reasonable distance of where you live, who are experienced in fitting Sonovation aids. 2. Visit all of the Sonovation recommended audies, see if they actually have the Sonovation aids and cables and Hi-Pro equivalent box in their offices (probably not.)... Ask them this question: "If you could fit me with any aids, including Sonovation aids, what aids would you recommend? Betcha none of them says Sonovation... k |
