Hearing Hearing
Devices
What image comes What image comes
to mind when
someone says
"hearing devices?"
Most individuals
think of a single
listening listening
instrument, or
purpose they are
used for but the
term is non-specific
and can refer to a
variety of tools.
In fact, listening
instruments are instruments are
used to aid those
who suffer from
hearing loss,
musicians and even
hunters.
A large majority of
listening listening
instruments are
used by the hearing
impaired. Here,
we're talking about
BTE, ITE, CIC and
other hearing aids.
People rely on
them to live, work them to live, work
and play
comfortably and
with adequate
sound.
There is another class of
listening devices used to
augment sound. These augment sound. These
may be used by law
enforcement, game
hunters and others looking
to gain a critical advantage
a heightened sense of
sound can deliver.
Consider a hunter
pursuing game that is
cloaked by forest, laying in cloaked by forest, laying in
wait somewhere in the
distance. Listening
instruments that improve
hearing by 7 times gives
this hunter a "super"
human advantage.
Consider musicians, who's
livelihood and practice
depends as much on good depends as much on good
hearing as it does playing
an instrument or singing.
In this case, a good
listening instrument allows
band members to get the
best music mix possible.
Finally, there have to be
those tools that are used by
hobbyists and professional hobbyists and professional
eavesdroppers, wearing a
set of earphones and
holding a directional
microphone designed to
pick up sounds in the
distance.
