Single-Sided Hearing Loss

Solutions for people with hearing loss in mainly one ear.

Product Features

We typically recommend either a CROS or a BiCROS system. A CROS system consists of a single microphone and single receiver contained in two individual devices (one for each ear). The ear with little-to-no functional hearing is fit with the microphone-equipped device, and the ear with normal hearing is fit with the receiver-equipped device. Sound arriving at the ear with hearing loss will then transmit through a wireless connection to the receiver-equipped device on the normal-hearing ear — to help you hear sounds regardless of which side they’re coming from.

A BiCROS system consists of a microphone-equipped device that is fit to the poorer-hearing ear and a conventional hearing aid fit to the better-hearing ear that has some hearing loss.

Bruce and Sam are very knowledgeable about all hearing aids. I am more than pleased with my pair of Audibel 1000 Via. If you are in need of hearing aids go to Bet Townsend. They will do more than any other vendor/audiologist that sells hearing aids. They help you carefully...

This was my first time seeing anyone but Bruce. My right hearing aid wasn't working. Sam spent 20 min with me and now it works like new. Bruce left me in good hands.
