Hearing Aid Channel, Price and Model Comparisons

As an online retailer and as a hearing professional for over 32 years, I feel it my obligation to point out a few very important items when searching for a hearing aid. I am one who tells it like it is, so please pay close attention to the following comparison items as you review the list of major manufacturers instruments and the associated pricing below.

   1. As pointed out in my free report, all hearing aid digital chips are manufactured by only two manufacturers world wide. So, the names and models end up being insignificant other than the companies have generally made a good name for themselves and the unit construction may vary in quality and appearance.

   2. As pointed out in my latest free report about whether or not multiple channels matter... the bottom line is yes, but nothing over 4 channels has proved to be of significant value to the wearer. The scientific findings are clear.

   3. Notice all of the prices of these listed instruments provided by another online retailer. The prices at your local specialist s office may be higher. Higher prices for more channels, and none of the listed models are less than $1599. Remember that is per hearing aid, so the cheapest price you'll get is $3198 for a pair, and they may only be a two channel instrument. However, most if not all of the models listed are priced with a 2 year warranty.

   4. Our top line hearing aids are all 12 channel, 4 memory high end circuitry that sports the "same digital chips" as in many of the high priced instruments listed. Each  of our instruments also come with the Virtual Technician software and programmer to enable you to make adjustments for yourself without having to have repeat visits to a local dealer. All of this with our 30 day money back guarantee, 1 year warranty (upgradable @ $100 per aid per year) and unlimited service adjustments during your warranty period via the internet if required. Now that is a great comparison!
