Hello, I am new to the forum and will be ordering hearing aids for the first time in September 2026. I have lived with bilateral sensorineural reverse slope hearing loss for decades, and only now have the means and desire to purchase/wear hearing aids. My audiologist has provided lots of information, and paired with my own research, we are going to go with the Phonak Infinio Virto I-90 aids. I am wondering if anyone here with reverse slope has experience with these hearing aids? I am also trying to find real-world examples of the various colour options (most notably pink and tan) before I make my purchase. Thank you to anyone who may reply.

The virtos should be fine. But prepare yourself for a bit of a journey to get used to them given how late you’re getting them. Reverse slope losses are more heterogeneous in regards to preferred gain settings, and you’ll need more time to adapt on top of that.

Thanks for the reply, I know I am in for a journey and am willing to give it my all as best I can. I am the type of person who likes to have allllll the information and options before making a decision, but it can sometimes lead to decision paralysis for me.
