Well the time is coming up where I will need to get a new pair of HAs, I am hoping to get them next year since I have had these for four years and would love to be able to have them as a backup when I buy a new pair.
So my question to all of you who have gotten various brands. Which brand is your favorite? And why?
Currently I have Phonak... I dont care for them honestly but DH was in the military and they were free so who am I to argue!! And the pair I had before I had for about 10 years ! Which were Starkey... I am favoring Starkey for my next pair, especially because repair and what not is so close (I am in NJ) but I honestly dont know much about the different brands. I know of two, personally since my first two pairs were Starkey and my last pair was Phonak. Phonak is definitly out, there is only one distributor within 30 miles of me and I dont care for that place... and I havent read many great things about them.
Also can anyone give me a general estimation on what you paid for a pair of BTEs? I can go smaller since I will be paying out of pocket but the BTEs are technically what I need so I will go with them again. I am just hoping the cost isnt to bad :/
If you have read all of things THANK YOU!!! I ramble sometimes
