Conversa.NT Moda

David Ashby

David Ashby, who lives in South Africa, believes that he has had a hearing loss since he was a young man working as an aircraft engineer in the Royal Air Force. Although he has worn hearing aids for the past fifteen years, he figures he should have been wearing them much earlier in his life.

Now at age 72, David is wearing Unitron Hearing’s Conversa.NT™ Moda™ open fit hearing instruments. He finds the hearing instruments very comfortable and just like having “regular open ears”.

“I don’t even know that the hearing aids are in – that’s the real beauty of it,” David explains. “I don’t know that they’re there. I have gone to bed and forgot they were in my ears.”

He also finds the hearing aids very easy to put on and take off. He can put them in his ears with one hand and finds that they rarely require adjusting.

Before wearing Conversa.NT Moda, David tried bilateral digital canal hearing aids. Although they helped him hear better, he usually took them off when in busy restaurants or malls because the background noise would become overwhelming.

Since wearing Conversa.NT Moda with slim tubes, he can hear his wife when they travel in the car together without the background noise of the car interfering. David feels he is experiencing “improved quality of hearing”, and he appreciates that he can hear conversations better. He also finds wearing his Conversa.NT Moda hearing aids in restaurants and shopping malls a positive listening experience.

“Wearing them in restaurants has been great,” says David. “I am not bothered by disruptive noises like the clattering of plates, but I can hear the conversation. My wife no longer has to raise her speech level to be heard. In group conversations, I find it easier to partake because I am able to hear perfectly well what everyone is saying, without the background noise being amplified.”

David’s wife immediately noticed a difference when he began to wear the Conversa.NT Moda hearing instruments. She commented that she noticed he was hearing better and how easily he adapted to the hearing aids.

"I am able to hear perfectly well what everyone is saying, without the background noise being amplified.

With program 3 set to the music environment, David is beginning to really enjoy listening to music again. As a great lover of classical music, he can now appreciate the sounds of the higher pitched instruments that he was missing in the past including wind and string instruments.

Comments David, “For the first time I feel like I am in a concert hall and that I am hearing all the instruments as I was meant to.”
