Heading to Costco for new Hearing Aids

My KS8s are getting long in the tooth and my church just installed (I paid for it).

Auracast is therefore a must-have requirement, so I believe that limits my choices to the Philips HearLink 9050 or Jabra Enhance Pro 30 based on Costco's web site. Anyone know different?

Anything else I should know about?

And the Soundgear AMP (if your Costco has it).

Current Rextons do not and will not have

My Costco now has the SG AMP 2.0s. The I saw said that he has only fitted one so far and doesn't think anyone else there has fitted any yet. I did go with the Jabra EP 30s for delivery next Saturday. Now would be a good time to explain why I should change this. :rofl:

I had the Jabra EP 30s. There’s a lot you like about these hearing aids. But I actually returned them, yesterday, and ordered the Soundgear AMP 2’s.

Why you ask? Well, if my store had the AMPs, I would have gotten them in the first place, but I had to wait months for the appointment. I was going to get hearing aids at that appointment, and I really wanted . But past that, I couldn’t get used to the aggressiveness of the sound quality of the Jabra’s. My hearing loss is moderate and in a quiet environment I couldn’t get comfortable with the sound of my voice. I was working with the Costco fitter to lower the gain in the high frequencies (in a quiet environment) but logically lowering the gain is contrary to what hearing aids are supposed to do. When I tried the AMPs at my Costco yesterday, my voice sounded more natural. So, I ordered them.

I really think the Jabra’s are a good hearing aid. In noisy environments I heard quite well and my voice didn’t bother me. So, I am sure other people can be successful with them.

And auracast is wonderful.

I was the second person to buy the AMP 2s at my store. 🤷🏼‍♀️
