@JeremyDC: I don’t understand your perception of this feature. My understanding is that it should affect the directionality of the mics, and not their timbre.

The only clear thing is that Oticon sells the More 1 at a premium with an advertised -10 dB NNR for complex environment, while it only wants people to use -6 dB NNR top (not even at the -8 dB NNR that it shows in the menu). See the screenshot below where the default is showing only 6 dB NNR max for the More 1 while 8 and 10 is available as well.

Just to add to the misdirection of this thread, The default value for the More 1 is 8dB:

My 1st fit was also 8dB, so them’s the facts. @SpudGunner if you check w/your audi, you’ll prolly find the same.

BTW I started a whole thread on just this topic, which @Volusiano quoted me on, and this conversation is going in exactly that direction.
We went from @cvkemp 's initial comments, to @SpudGunner’s discontent with the More 1 because of NNS!!

Sorry to get all huffy, guyz

Where on earth did you get the idea that I’m discontented with my More1s? I have some questions, and I find some of Oticon’s statements to be vague, but I’m far from discontent!

@SpudGunner said:

@Volusiano: That reasoning fits my situation rather well. Although our VAC :canada: will provide me with More3s at no cost, I had to pay an additional $1,500 to get to the More1s. More2s would have cost me significantly less. I still don’t know/understand whether More2s would have done the job.

@SpudGunner said:

If that’s, in fact, the case, it would explain why aim preferring the next level down of NNS, and kicking myself for buying More1s when More2s would have served me just as well.

@SpudGunner said:

Yes, that’s the model I should have bought, but -

Want more, eh?
You are a Phonak spy, out to sabotage us More-Ons!!

Ok folks I have had it with the high jacking I am closing this tread.

Not sure what your question is. The feature is not just about directionality. There is quite a bit of compression/noise reduction going on with the balanced setting. It makes the environment much quieter, while the aware setting lets the world in. No idea what they are doing technically. It feels like they must turn off some noise reduction.

You should move this to here

Please stop it with this post I am so disappointed in how off subject it has gotten
