"From my experience with these new instruments, I can say that my hearing has improved enormously"
A 63-year-old consultant with three years of hearing aid experience. Asger has children and grandchildren and enjoys a very active outdoor and social life.
"People around me tell me that my hearing is much better, which is a testament to the quality of the hearing aid I’m wearing. Personally I think that my hearing has improved significantly. It’s not just the fact that I can hear more, but that the sound in itself is more sonorous. I feel a broadening of the sound spectrum."
"Getting a hearing aid was a tremendous relief - even with the small ones I started with. My next instruments were much better, but these Epoqs are better still – a huge improvement in fact. These instruments actually “communicate”. For instance, the program automatically shifts over to telephone-mode when I pick up the receiver and hold it to my ear. And that’s an incredible improvement. I can hear very clearly what is being said to me now. And I no longer have any problems whatsoever hearing what’s being said over the phone."
"From my experience with these new instruments, I can say that my hearing has improved enormously. It’s much better in all social situations - not just when I’m in a relatively small and closed forum, but also when I interact with a larger group of people in other social contexts. And that’s not the only benefit; the other day I was listening to some piano concerts and suddenly it hit me that what I was listening to - the experience I was having. It reminded me of when I was a child standing next to my uncle Rudolph’s piano. And inside my head something just said “Bing!” It was as if I had lost something that then suddenly came back to me."
"I experience sound in a much broader, deeper and fuller way now. When I compare my old instruments to these new ones, it seems as if I have pressed the loudness-button on the TV. Suddenly everything has become more spatial and diverse. I can hear some extra dimensions that I couldn’t hear before. These Epoqs have improved my hearing in every way – not just for music. This isn’t an expression I would normally use, but they really do complete my hearing.”
