THIS looks like a great place to highjack a thread and ask;

ARE THERE ANY FREEPERS WITH EXPERIENCE WITH CHEAP HEARING AIDS ?

Let's get THAT conversation rolling ...

I have tinnitus AND bad hearing.

As a 70 year old former farm boy who spent hours on tractors without mufflers on a Minnesota farm, I wasted a lot of dollars (statute of limitations) on trying to sue my dad for unfair child labor practices when in my early 60s I lost most of my hearing in my right ear.

Not wanting to spend thousands of dollars after listening to other old folks talk about their problems with their expensive hearing aids, I searched Amazon for amplifiers that had very positive user comments. I settled on the product below ($250) and found it significantly helped me and it not only has a couple of amplification levels, it also allows you to set it for indoor gatherings such as restaurants where it helped with ambient noises.

Se my comment above. I have used them and they do not match the tuned hearing aids with the computer on board. They are definitely better than nothing, however, the high quality aids make music sound better and the sounds of nature, like the birds, sound much better.

Lipo-Flavonoid for the tinnitus.
