Hi there,

How many decibels () does each notch on the equalizer represent?

I’m going to see my Hearing Instrument Specialist () tomorrow to make some adjustments to the overall equalizer in AutoSense.

Thank you!

I believe it’s 3dB with a max increase/decrease of 12dB

In the app, there is bass, middle, and treble frequency ranges. These ranges correspond to the following frequencies:

  • Bass: <290 Hz*
  • Middle: 500-2.5kHz
  • Treble: >1.5kHz

Each slider’s range is +/- 12dB in 3 increments. By looking at the patient’s frequency range adjustments in the app you can apply those changes to their Target fitting by changing the gain settings in these frequency ranges.

*Note: Patients with a closed coupling will notice more significant effects when changing the bass slider than those with an open coupling.

I don’t find the equalizer in this app very useful (doesn’t appear to have that much of an effect)- better make sure things are set to your liking in Target.

I do wonder why it doesn’t affect the higher frequencies as my Phonak Naida P70 UP Aids were adjusted up to 9kHz.

Might that be a limitation of the UP. I seem to remember there was very little headroom in the higher frequencies?

In reply to @PeterH

In UP - about 20 of gain at 8kHz.

Here is PR vs. SP comparison:

You’re right, I don’t know why I forgot about SP version in Lumity line. Maybe because of frequency response range? However, in theory PR could provide better amplification than P receiver in my Sphere: [image] I have just also “tried” to “fit” in Lumity SP model: [image] To sum up, I don’t see much difference in my case. SP could be better only if my hearing would be much poorer up to 4 kHz. What’s more, there is poorer amplification over 4 Khz in SP: There’s AI-produced table and gra…
