Signia hearing aids and Signia StreamLine mic

Don’t want to argue with you but it dependson the STYLE of hearing aid you have. Does not work with BTE hearing aids. I havec spoken to the bluetooth hotline at Signia and my audi has also spoken to their audiologist with me present. The PIXEL 7a does not pair with the Signia BTE hearing aids that I have for streaming. I was really hoping I would find someone who had experience with the Signia StreamLine Mic.

Yep that’s right, but you haven’t given the model your using, all you’ve said is “my new BTE HAs” so your saying your HAs are non wireless models, let me know what your using and I’ll check.
And yes I have a bit of experience with the StreamLine Mic having used Signia/Rexton models for many years, but anyways if your not able to “work” it out there is a user guide easily available online, let us know exactly what your not able to work out?

So, my question is about experience with the Signia Streamline Mic and I get a bunch of replies that say that what I am asing cannot possibly be true - that I cannot possibly know what I am talking about when I say my HA do not work with bluetooth streaming and android phones. Apparently the request for “input” allows people to question what I am saying and what has been told to both me and my audi by the manufacturer and the audiologists at the manufacturer. Instead of input on the subject now I to wade through responses that do nothing to address the question regarding the Streamline Mic. I am very sorry I joined this group at all now when all I get is people questioning the veracity of what I am saying and seemingly unwilling to answer the question I have asked or do not have any real input to offer. You may think you are doing the right thing but in the recipient’s eyes it appears VERY different - you are just flat out saying I am wrong when I am the person with the HA’s and the phone.

I’m calling you out, you haven’t a clue what your talking about, when you join a great forum like hearingtracker you’ll find all the answers you’ll ever need, but… you have to give the required information we asked for to be able to help you, now it’s ok that you don’t want our “opinions” on how we can help, so why not just use the search button from right here on hearingtracker to find the “answers” your looking for.

You could always do your own homework!

A very large percentage of android phones will not connect directly to your aids. Most android phones need to connect to a Streamliine Mic which handles BT anything to your aids.

Has he ever told us what model aids he is using or what brand/model of his phone.

I am doing my homework by asking people here. I guess this is just not the place for me, I expected something very different from what I have found.

The op only mentioned he’s got the pixel 7a, so that’s a 2023 model and would work, but no he hasn’t mentioned the model he’s using even tho he’s been asked at least twice, this is what got things out of wack to begin with, I guess he just wants to be walked though on how to set the mic up with his HAs, you’ve been a great help with listing the compatibility models both phones and HAs so far.

A bit unfair really, it’s just that the information in your post doesn’t match what most of us know, right now it doesn’t matter if you can or not have direct streaming, you just want to know how to set the mic up, I’m sure @Morgan1946 will be more then happy to help you along with that

Cheers

YES. I have a Google Pixel 7a. IT IS COMPATIBLE IWTH THE APP. It does not stream music or cell phone calls.

The StreamLine Mic will probably work for you, but they are expensive, around $250 on Amazon1, but you might be able to do better elsewhere. It might be more cost effective just to buy a new phone, one of those listed in a post above. Another option might be through the VA, if you qualify for Veteran’s Health Benefits.
The comments on the Amazon site are interesting. Mentioned is the fact that once paired with the HA’s, the Mic can only be unpaired through the Audiologist’s software. This was discussed at some length in a previous thread about a Bluetooth glitch which apparently has been resolved by a software update.

I have “One of those phones” listed. I just bought it on the presumption that it WOULD work with streaming from the app, but it does not. $250 is no where close to what I paid for the HA and the phone. If I had a set of HA that did stream to the phone they would probably cost much more than what I paid. I got the Streamline Mic because I wanted to be able to stream music. So far it works. This is a closed issue for me at this point, no thanks to the people who responded so poorly in this thread. So, thank you so very much for the late comments and taking the time to do something civil in this thread.

Thank you so much for taking the time to reply. I gave up on the people in this group because they were continually telling me I was wrong and they knew better. Glad you have found your solution. I did buy the Streamline Mic and although it has it’s limitations (as everything does these days) it is better than not having it. I found that I can actually stream my TV to the Streamline Mic but decided against doing that in the long run. I have found using the Streamline Mic a bit perplexing as it is always turning down the volume on my phone and I do not hear my phone ring and do not hear notifications. This has happened with two different phones now - long story I am not going to tell here.
