I tried hearing aids from Hearing Life. They were rude and lied to me. The Oticon Brand partially own the company. I tried the Oticon brand and the sound was awfull. Shrill and tinny and music was unlistenable. When I asked about Phonac, the audiologist said they were $10,000 a pair and that was a lie. They tried to charge me $2000 more than the price advertised on their own website. Stay away from these people.
