It's more than likely the choice for which hearing instrument is appropriate for you has to do with your lifestyle. Depending on your experiences, your lifestyle characteristics and your hearing needs, YOUR aid will fit YOUR needs.
Generally, less expensive models are appropriate for less active individuals that seek hearing improvement in one primary listening situation (e.g. around the house). More expensive models with multiple memories and advanced features are appropriate for individuals that require hearing improvement in varied listening situations such as work, social situations, home and on the telephone.

The hearing instruments listed above have a number of advanced features, including some that are controlled by a remote control when worn, that address the most demanding lifestyles and hearing needs. Here are a few feature highlights common to premium hearing aids:
- Data-Logging and Self-Learning ¬ While wearing your hearing instruments, the devices will record and analyze how you are using the various features and customize volume adjustments on it's own. This allows for more precise custom programming, and also diminishes the need to come in for adjustments.
- Whistle Block ¬ A new benchmark feedback cancellation; no more annoying whistle.
- Less Backgound Noise ¬ your hearing instruments extracts speech out of background noise and the system selectively amplifies the sounds you want to hear and eliminates the ones that are disturbing.
- Bluetooth Supported ¬ Some premium hearing instruments support bluetooth connectivity to mobile phones, mp3 players and other electronic devices. This connectivity usually requires the purchase of additional devices to provide a link between the electronic device and the hearing instrument.
