$5000 WASTEED!!! We were told this newer technology has two reciever/speaker things and that this would help minimize our prevent problems with background noise. On the second follow up when we mentioned the background noise being so loud we were told it can only do so much. So were stuck.Now we find out friends who went with different company for hearing aids have free batteries for life. Another just recharges the battery. All for about the same price! MIRACLE ear? The only miracle is how they stay in business!!!
