Hearing aids serve different purposes and needs. The goal of most
hearing aid fittings is to make more speech sounds available to
the listener. However, simply making sounds louder does not accomplish
the goal! In 2006, most hearing aids process sounds to present specific
speech information (sounds) to the listener, while reducing unwanted
noises and sounds. In fact, with some hearing aid technology, such
as; T-coils, FM systems, Directional Mics and Noise Reduction circuits,
sometimes people wearing hearing aids can actually perceive a better
speech signal than people not wearing hearing aids!
