<\/h2>\nBefore you can be fit with a hearing aids, you must first get a hearing test at The Hearing & Balance Center<\/span>. Your hearing test will reveal your exact type and degree of hearing loss. This will inform your audiologist what device will work best for you and how it needs to be programmed.<\/p>\n Hearing aids are made of three main parts: a microphone, an amplifier and a speaker. As sounds from your environment enter through your microphone, they are transformed from soundwaves into electrical signals. These signals are sent to the amplifier, which increases the power of the signals to match the exact specifications your hearing loss requires. Finally, the amplified sounds are passed to your ears through the speaker.<\/p>\n DSPs are a type of hearing aid<\/a> microchip. There are two new DSPs on the market that increase the processing power of hearing aids while lowering the manufacturing cost.<\/p>\n R3920 microchips are used in higher-tier hearing aids. This kind of chip features 16 channels of wide dynamic range compression (WDRC)<\/a>, which gives your audiologist the ability to finely tune your hearing aid during the fitting process.<\/p>\n This type of microchip allows hearing aids to better detect sounds in your environment because they are able to select the most important sounds to amplify. The R3920 also has an impulse noise reduction feature, which monitors and subdues impulse noises that can be uncomfortable for hearing aid users, like the clanging of pots and pans during a dinner party.<\/p>\n R3110 microchips are used in lower-tier hearing aids. Instead of offering multiple custom options like the R3920 microchip, the R3110 offers pre-programmed options. However, it still includes essential features like background noise reduction, feedback cancelation and dual microphones. The main difference between the two chips is the R3110 is less customizable.<\/p>\n It seems like every time you visit Wholesale Appliance Center<\/a>, there\u2019s new technology on each household item; hearing aids are no different.
