Briefi ng customer ...
Before the adjustment, it is important to mention that the hearing impression
for the adjustment would be exactly the same as the customer will have in
the future. The auditory training and the process of becoming accustomed
which follow an adjustments will usually only improve verbal comprehension.
The auditory systems are only roughly adjusted to his needs - fi ne-tuning
occurs based on device selection.
Rather, the idea behind the process of auditory device comparison with
AUDECOM is to give the customer an impression of the audio quality and the
performance differences of the auditory systems. The comparison has the goal
of showing the (added) benefi t in the comfort range which the (higher quality)
auditory system will offer in the future. Thus, the customer can assess based
on the differences which auditory system he would like to use and which
system he is willing to purchase:
How does wind noise suppression work?
What benefi ts does a special adjustment characteristic have?
How is the music and vocal replay in the different performance
classes?
The timeframe and the listener experience/adaptation are required so
that differences in one’s daily routine can be recognised.
“It is important that you can make an assessment based on your
own experience and make a decision on the auditory system most
suitable for you“
Inform the customer that he will be changing between the auditor systems
himself to be able to select in each case which auditory system he would like
to directly compare with which other auditory system and when. It is therefore
a good idea to only toggle after approximately 15 to 20 seconds because the
auditory systems must adjust to the sound situation in order to develop the
full scope of their performance.
Toggling between the auditory systems (for customers explanation):
Select the desired auditory systems with the three keys at the bottom right:
Key 1 for auditory system 1
Key 2 for auditory system 2
Key 3 for auditory system 3
You can recognise which auditory system is
currently selected by the mini-lamps next to
the auditory systems.
