I wear digital aids, having started with analog aids. The first one was a box on the chest with wires up to the ears. The second one was behind the ear. The next three sets were analog in the ear. After that I contacted Stuart Spencer, the owner of Advanced Ear Care, who has been taking care of the hearing health of South Orange County residents, particularly those in the Laguna Woods/Laguna Hills/Leisure World area, since 1984. He helped me in selecting the last set which is a digital hearing aid. Stuart has been of tremendous help. The side effects of the digital aids is the surround sound that puts everything within normal hearing range. The best comfort level I have is with one aid for general daily use. I only wear both for special events and remove the second one as soon as I leave the event.
