I would be very interested in an A/B comparison (switching them on the spot, not wearing each one at separate times) between the Fortell 2.0 and the Phonak EON or Oticon Reveal.

And Signia Max. This looks insane. 4 and a reported +9.5dB benefit which is more than the Fortell.

Guessing top-end Eons will be 5-7k depending on where you buy them. Slightly less from an online discounter like zip3 or injoy1.

I'm very curious about the algorithms which can determine and only amplify the "frontal voice". this does sound like a significant advantage. however, i've read Phonak's spheric mode is more effective for sloping hearing losses so I also wonder if this is why the fortell hearing aids are currently only for mild to moderate hearing losses.

i also wonder what happens when there are multiple talkers and some of them might be next to the wearer. i guess then the same speech vs directionality processing that all modern dsp hearing aids do.

apologies, that must have been 1.0. but my question about how effective the spatial processing can be for different types of loss, I believe is still valid.
