Hi there, the virto can be a project, but you need the correct programming device and of course the Phonak target software, first what is the exact model of your ? Wireless or NW, this will be a good start.

I have all correct stuff and been trying to get it tuned better than my audiologist, but find it hard as i will get sounds to be good but then i loose speach clarity goes away etc.

I also only have one aid in my right ear as left side is to far gone taken out by M.S i beleve.i have been using Phonak since 2010 and curently on a new aid a Virto P90 sp non wifi but has Bluetooth.i always have a tuff time with tuning .my last aid i got was from dr Olsen and did a great job but has got very expensive to see so trying a differen audiologist

Yes this is the nature of the beast, well I’d try a different formula to start with, plus I’d also fit another device to the right side as you have better hearing on the left going by your audogram you posted, in fact I’d be inclined to go for both and then get the best use of the extra features available for fit.

Oh ok it’s just the other way around, but still even it it’s just some lower frequency, ya know at least it’s something, every little bit would help, no doubt you’ve looked in to for that ear?

No i havent not ready to go thar route yet.not even sur it would work on the left couse of possibly nerve damage that i believe is what took my hearing from that ear since i once could hesr a needle drop before i lost it one day.i also lost control of my left leg that i believe was the start of my M.S. journey.
