Abstract

This study explores the ability of 30 experienced hearing aid users to reliably reset the gain of their hearing aids in a clinical sound field. The level of the sound-field stimulus was derived from an aided most comfortable level (MCL), which reflected a "real-life" aided gain setting. The results indicated that these subjects were able to perform all tasks with a high degree of reliability, as measured by sound field speech reception thresholds (SRT'S) AND Brüel and Kjaer acoustic analysis. Average aided operational levels for SRT and MCL were also obtained for this group.
