Oh, OK, I can see your audiogram in the other thread that you mentioned now. It's really a shame that there's no mechanism to tag along your audiogram with your personal profile on this forum so that one can view somebody's audiogram at a click of a button anywhere that poster has a post. It's...

Yes, you are missing 2 crucial things beside the effect of the ear canal shape on the output of the hearing aids. Those 2 crucial things are: 1) the (over or under or right-on-the-spot) performance of the hearing aids relative to the target gain curve, and 2) the performance of your fitting...

REM adjustment is basically based on the target gain curve that is computed based on your audiogram, and the target gain curve is based on one of the standard fitting rationale, usually NAL-NL2, depending on what your HCP chooses as the target fitting rationale. The target gain curve means that...

To @nanowiz , can you show us what your audiogram looks like? @pvc -> is there a way to input one's audiogram into one's profile so that everyone can see at anytime? If so, I'm not sure how to look it up. I think it's important to be able to tag one's audiogram along with one's profile. It's...

My in-situ result varies slightly from my audiogram done at the office as well, so it should be no big surprise there. After all, the actual hearing aids' amplification will not match 100% to the "calibrated" device used in the hearing booth. Of course the in-situ result should be considered...

Thanks @pvc ! Your write-up on this looks great!

I wrote this long winded explanation in PM for another forum member a short while back. Thought I'd copy and paste it here in case @nanowiz finds it helpful. The very first time you connect your hearing aids to Genie 2 with NoahLink Wireless, Genie 2 will detect that what you have on your aids...

Most newer HAs like Oticon More and Real support ASHA. I think this Nexum VOCE device supports LE Audio. So I don't think they play with each other. BT LE is just a generic name for low energy Bluetooth (also called BLE), but it comes in many form. For example, the Apple MFI is one form of...

??? It would help if you frame your question with more details.

The first time you open Genie 2 and build a client profile then connect to your hearing aids, Genie 2 should have said something like the settings in the client's profile is different than the settings found in your hearing aids. Then it asks you which one you want to select. I assume that you...

I don't really have any compelling argument to give you between the Philips and the Rexton. My personal observation is that I notice a lot more question on hearing aids forums about the Philips than Rexton. However, because I wear Oticon aids, I have a bias to follow their cousin, the Philips...

The best you can do at home is in-situ audiometry test. It's similar to your audiogram test in a booth at your HCP's office, except that it's now done using the actual hearing aids you're wearing. So it takes into account the real aids and also how it sounds inside your ear canals with the...

I think both the Philips and Rexton all have 3 year warranties, no? Are you saying that you picked the Rexton because the Philips doesn't have a 3 year warranty like Rexton? The Philips 9040 uses a lot of same periphery technologies as the Oticon Real, however the core technologies between...

I think you picked a good route to buy from Costco, especially because it seems like you're not 100% sure what you really want. I would ONLY buy from eBay if I know EXACTLY what I want, and also if I have experience in programming that brand of hearing aid as a DIY person already. As for...

Thanks for this tip. I think next time I feel the need to use the Sound Studio features, I may very well do what you suggested -> install Genie 2 2023.2 using the full package instead of keeping the update install that doesn't have it. Because this 2023.2 update is so new and I assume not too...

Thanks, @pvc ! That makes sense what you said about what Sound Studio is for. I do have the complete copy of the Genie 2 2023.2.zip file as well (thanks to you), so if I ever need to use the Sound Studio feature, I'll break it out and try to install from there to see if I'd get luckier with it...

Well, I skipped selecting the Sound Studio in the installation, and it successfully installed the Genie 2 2023.2 and the Genie 2 Updater just fine. I'm not even sure what the Sound Studio is used for in Genie 2 as I never have a use for it anyway. In the Philips HearSuite 2023.2 update, I did...

I got the Rolling Back message in the failed installation yesterday. Today I tried again and the exact same thing happened. I got the Rolling Back message at 63% into the installation progress, then it failed. This time I save the log file so I can review where it went wrong. Below is a...

Were you able to install the Genie 2 2023.2 update on your PC, @pvc ? I tried to do it on mine from Genie 2 2023.1 and I noticed it started saying "Rolling back" at around 63% into the installation step (downloading was fine), then in the end it said "Installation Failed". This process also...

I second my appreciation thank you to @pvc for all his contributions here! He's the reason I joined this forum, for real!
