I will change from the Starkey Edge 24 to the Phonak Infinio Spheres next week. There are different reasons for the change, but one is connectivity.

My audiologist will fit me with a power dome for the left ear and an open dome for the right ear. She said Phonak recommended the power dome for my hearing loss in the left ear. I know she deals mostly with Starkey hearing aids so hopefully she knows how to fit Phonak for my hearing loss.

I will ask her about custom ear molds or SlimTips so that I can have a better streaming experience and probably better success with the Sphere Mode. Any advice based on my is much appreciated. I am a newbie since November 2024.

Your will set up your devices in the Phonak’s Target software. So your problem will be her’s. And pretty easy to solve as everything will be made visible in the software she will use for your ’s.
Wouldn’t worry to much.
Enjoy your new Spheres, most users including myself are very happy with them.

new Spheres especially the better connectivity with my Android phone

I can imagine. I changed because of the same connectivity issue from the Edge 24 to the Sphere P90 in my Samsung Android. But there are other features too which also made me happy.

Me too. Also because of the app, which I prefer, and the taps that allow me to interact with the assistant I choose myself. Starkey decides which one to use on Android.

one power dome and one open

Don’t worry. These are just silicone domes costing a few cents. Everything will be visible and correctable in the software. And they will fit you correctly as in best practice rules. These domes they will have in different sizes also.

I like my custom moulds, but I also have the closed silicon domes as I am a . And I don’t mind occlusion problems.
All these things are very personal and you can try it out with your HAP. The best solution for you can be the worst case scenario for someone else.

Thank you for the valuable information. I’ll see what happens when I get fitted with the new Phonak Infinio Spheres.

If earmould is a possibility better go for both ears from start or after some trial etc. Just slightly bigger vented on right side to avoid occlusion effect as well as a more natural hearing. Fitting / fine tuning and hearing will be smooth long term, need more power? -no worries- and easier cleaning with an earmould / custom AP :+1:
