It even allows the user’s conversation in both hearing aids, for enhanced listening ease. Users can also use the Streamer as a remote control for his or her Oticon hearing aid.

This allows the hearing aid wearer to watch tv at a volume that they can hear, while his or her family watches at a separate volume.

I have a SYNCRO2 aid, Serial No. 193974, STD 2, warranty exp date 10/06/09. Do you have something that would be better for a profound hearing loss. My audiologist has tried to adjust aid and it still gives distorted sound. I must rely on one aid and it is really unsatisfactory. I’ve worn Oticon aids for years so am asking for help. I am able to use TV ears and hear the television fairly well. Remember, I only have hearing in one ear now. Thank you.
I found that oticon hearing aids least satisfactory. Their workmanship for ITE is poor exposing wearer to constant whistling sound at slight movement of head indicating highly improper fit. They could not do it right even after redoing them. Sorry to say just no good. I am looking for other company makes.
Sounds more like a fitting problem, no?
I have the same problem. Feedback whistling, sometime when I am just sitting and not moving. I have been back to three different audiologists on four occasions during the last 18 or so months for fitting. I experienced some improvement, but the whistling remains.
Ive been wearing the tego pro for about 4 years and am looking to upgrade. What would be the next step aid in the otucon line. I don’t like when the aid cuts out loud sounds cause I like to listen to music loud thanks
why does my hearing start beeping. one side beeps twice then the other one beeps twice.
this continues for several cycles then stops only to repeat later. It is very annoying.
did you replace your batteries, sounds like a low battery warning
OMG, I just came here to find out why my Oticon BTE 13 SP does that. It just started and I have no idea why. Nothing in the manual. But for the fact I can use my cell phone with this hearing aid, I find it not user friendly at all. I had Widex before and loved them. These hearing aids have many poor features – not designed for women at all and annoy me most of the time. And I have been wearing hearing aids for 15 years so I do have experience.
Really over priced for the quality of the aid itself and much more focused on the gadgets. Disappointed, to say the least.
Are Hi Health Innovations products Oticon’s products? In particular I am interested in HiBTE 2.0. How do you rate that?
i had a $6000 set of oticon aids they were so bad i gave up hearing aids, they were sent back every week for repair, they would stop working while you were wearing them, even the audiologist was stymied why they do not work…just bought set of cheap md aids, they work great, no troubles or problems
Does any one have any comments the new Oticon Alta2’s?
Yes I have had alta 2 for about 2 years. Nothing but problems. The right sided one has this blowing wind effect particularly when music is being played. My audiologist does not believe me. I have sent them back about 6 times but problems continue every 2 weeks. I wish someone would explain what the problems is. Reports from America describe the problem as a blowing wind which is accurate.

after half hour my hearing aids decrease sound
My Oticon Nera hearing aid Serial No. 23347595 has caused skin soreness on the ear adjacent to the OTE apparatus. I have had the aid for almost 2 years and the problem started about 6 months ago. I only have one aid so fortunately only throne ear has soreness.
OTICON hearing aids have very poor customer service. Mr. David Schroder who is the customer service manager is insensitive and ignorant to the needs of seniors who are their main clientele. Purchasing from this company risks causing you to lose your money if ANYTHING goes wrong with them because they do NOT stand by their company. Instead they look for opportunities to charge you extra to make more money. This is a sad and manipulative company run by Mr.s Schroder, trying to gauge seniors out of their savings.
I do not see nera 2 pro and ria 2 pro in the list. What happened to them and why?
please advise me what model and year my oticon behind the ear model with serial number (034630) 102-74-390-00 was manufactured.My amp. has broken down on the right side .What is the name of this model. What is the replacement cost of this and obviously the service fee for both hearing aids to be fixed. Your urgent reply will be appreciated as i struggle without them .I live in South Africa.Thanks
Had hearing exam on 5/9/2017 at Intermountain Audiology. The test (scheduled after seeing a Facebook post about a clinical trial on a new product) was performed at their clinic in St. George, Utah. The professionalism of the staff was wonderful. The staff member who performed my test was very knowledgeable in interpreting the test results as well as explaining the features of the newest Oticon Opn One and Opn Three devices – said to be the most recent and technologically-advanced hearing aids of their kind. While it was all very interesting, since I’d had two previous hearing exams within the past 10 years, I didn’t really learn anything new. As expected, they wanted to fit me with one of the devices. There would be no cost up front and i would wear the aid’s for a trial period of one month. I know hearing aid’s are expensive and not normally covered under Medicare and this was no exception but the cost was somewhere between $5,000 – $7,000. That sounded quite costly so I asked to think it over and made F/U appt for one week later. I wanted to read reviews before proceeding. What I have read so far has not convinced me that spending that much would be necessary. I don’t like reading that customer service is un-satisfactory as this is one of my pet peeves as a consumer; there is absolutely no excuse for any company to provide less than excellent customer service. I’m going to go back next week to discuss other hearing device options but for now, the Opn device is just too expensive.
does anyone know where to get the pro wax mini guard for Oticon INO?
