I absolutely need both and with every single program when I buy my next hearing aids in 2026, because of profound speech recognition loss. Looking at Phillips 9050 vs. Jabra Enhance Pro 30 vs Jabra Enhance 700.

Thanks for that info but I already did what I call, “my homework” on both things with both the Phillips 9050 and the Jabra Enhance Pro 30. Your kindness in replying is appreciated.

I would check the warranty and lost hearing aid replacement coverage between the Jabra 30 and the Enhance 700. You might get better coverage with the Jabra 30 at Costco.

Also the Micro doesn’t not have a , however the RIE 13 does have one.

Note the RIE 13 doesn’t have intelligent focus. So that’s something to think about too.

Thank you. If you could see my current “needs” list that’s ongoing, in preparation for when I’m in the Costco hearing center next Spring 2026, you might feel like ROFL.

You should edit your last post and change the picture and remove name and birth-date for security reasons … just post the lower part of the audiograhm

scammers could use it to impersonate you :frowning:

what aids are you using now ?

I have the jabra 30’s and they work very well for me

Do you have locations now that are using ?

I was going to suggest a evaluation for your worse ear, but I see from some other posts that you are opposed to the suggestion. I have a similar deep ski slope to profound and have had a positive experience with my CI. It allowed me to continue working in a forward facing position and participate more in conversations. No regrets here and I did not find the surgery to be nearly as bad as my recent sinus surgery!! But both worth it for the results yielded. I drove 5 hours to Vanderbilt, a leading CI research hospital to have my surgery to make sure I had current research and techniques on my side. Good luck with selecting your .

If your WR is, ‘as bad as anyone can get’, that would be 0% both ears? I can’t see the numbers on your attachment, sorry if i missed it.

Do you have the actual percentages?
I was 20% on the right and that was a stretch. I considered myself a good guesser, but it was clearly not functional for me.

evaluation helps you learn more about a potential option to improve your function and quality of life. I should have done mine sooner. Just activated last week and already pleased. I don’t have natural hearing, but I’m speech is already more intelligible than it was.
It’s kinda wonky with my natural hearing and WR 85% on the left and my right CI trying to reconcile to one audible message, but I’m up to the challenge! I already feel like my CI is trying to help my left natural which is exciting.

Good luck on your journey!
