Some patients prefer analog hearing aids over digital ones. This is especially true, if that individual has exclusively worn analogs for many years.

The sound quality of an anolog is sometimes preferred by patients with severe hearing loss. Many of these former analog wearers are not bothered by background sounds, nor the loudness of ambient sound.

By definition, digital hearing aids are quieter than analogs. For this reason, we do not believe that analog hearing aids will be completely phased out of the marketplace.
