During this study each participant will be asked to wear a set of BTE hearing aids home and wear them daily. We will be assessing their evaluation of the BTEs during and after their home field trial. They will be asked to report on their use with different apps/accessories. Subjective performance ratings will be collected.
Participants will wear one set of 2 different BTE hearing aid models based on the gain required by their hearing loss. The hearing aids will be programmed based on a prescriptive approach and participants will be sent out for either one home trial with the less powerful BTEs or for two home trials with the SP (super power) BTEs.
