for Both Your Ears.

Better Sound Discrimination Many sounds which are almost exactly alike when heard with one ear can be more easily differentiated when heard with two ears.

Improved Understanding Binaural hearing (hearing with both ears) helps you sort out and understand individual voices. Our “built-in signal processor” in the brain blends signals from both ears into a single sound “picture”. Without such equality, our brain presents us with incomplete information.

Hearing From Both Sides As nature intended, hearing with two ears allows you to enjoy more natural sound. Hearing with one ear is like trying to see with one eye closed. It’s possible, but not as effective.

Locating Sound Source Our brain locates a sound source by measuring the tiny differences in duration and intensity of sound arriving at each ear. These differences are then translated by the brain, allowing us to instantaneously recognize a sound’s exact location. When a person hears with only one ear, there is increased difficulty in locating sound.

Less Stressful Listening Listening with only one ear is physically tiring and stressful. With good hearing in both ears you respond more confidently, and you don’t need to always worry about turning your “good ear” towards sounds.

Imagine for a moment that you have to tie a knot with only one hand. You can still tie a knot, using your body as a support, but it is not as effective as having both of your hands to perform this function.

The fact is, most people function better with both hands, and hear better with both ears.

Why two ears are better than one!We have two ears to more effectively process sound in our brain. Without such processing, our brain would present us with an incomplete sound picture.

We are born with two ears for a reason. When compared to hearing with just one ear, a person can hear sounds from both sides, hear a variety of sounds, easily hear sounds fuller with better clarity, and understand speech sounds more clearly.

Why two hearing aids are better than one!The majority of people with a hearing loss have the same degree of loss in both ears. The use of hearing aids in both ears could logically provide the same benefit to each ear. Research has shown that despite the hearing loss, people who wear two hearing aids could still enjoy more balanced hearing. Not only that, there are additional advantages. People who have “ringing in the ears” in both ears are less bothered by the ringing with two hearing aids than one.

People who wear two hearing aids showed less deterioration in speech understanding than those who wear only one hearing aid.

With a hearing loss in both ears,

it makes sense to wear two hearing aids.Even if you only have a mild hearing loss…...you can still benefit from getting good quality hearing instruments in both ears. You need to hear every day! At home, at work, watching and listening to your favorite television programs, listening to music, going to the movies or to a sporting event, eating out at a busy restaurant, talking on the telephone, or simply hearing the beeps from a coffee maker or microwave oven.

Unfortunately, many people put off doing something to help them hear better – to their own detriment and to the detriment of their loved ones. Most people who could benefit from a pair of quality hearing aids often take years before they do something about it. Yet when many of them finally take the leap, they realize that this

was something that unnecessarily affected the quality of their lives, and they should have dealt with it years before. Once they do, then they realize what they had been missing.
