Cheap hearing aids?

If you purchase cheap hearing aids, you will certainly get what you pay for. Make sure you can return them for a full refund because I respectfully predict you will not want to keep them.

I ended up buying a higher end Phonak. After audiologist adjustments I'm very satisfied :)  Certainly the best hi fi upgrade I could make..

Those cheap things are not 'hearing aids', they're 'hearing amplifiers', which is why they are cheap (I wear hearing aids, and I did try a hearing amp once to see what it was like; I returned them). Real hearing aids are totally adjustable by a trained audiologist, who can work out the best EQ curve for you, along with multiple settings for different EQ's. Those cheap ones can be of some value, but they are far, far inferior to real hearing aids, hence far, far cheaper.
