Last month at the MOS convention Anne & I were on one of the trips with a gentleman wearing hearing aids which he was very happy with although he had only been using them a couple of weeks. They were real state of the art (DANAVOX, digital hearing technology) and he was kind enough to provide me with a telephone number to get information on them. I did call and was provided with lots of good material to study. I've read the material and am impressed but I have not taken any action as yet. The manufacturer is GN ReSound and the telephone number is 800-432-7835. They are located in Minnetonka, MN. When I called, I explained that I was interested in being able to hear bird sounds. I will keep you posted on what I do with this information. I'm in the market for a good audiologist as we are new in the Baltimore area. Someone who handles the ReSound Digital Hearing System. Good luck.
