Melody has long been in the business of creating hearing aids for the elderly and hard of hearing. Melody has a new model out, the A3, which combines the latest technologies with comfort to make for one of the most delightful hearing aids on the market today.

The Melody A2 and Melody A1 are similar models, but have notable differences from the A3. The Melody A3 is set apart from its dual microphone technology that creates a “3D” sound instead of the flat mono sound that is created with most hearing aids. The best part is that sounds can be judged from distance and direction more effectively- a vital upgrade that none should be without.

All hearing aids today have a noise filtering function to allow users to focus on important sound, and not the filler noise in the background. To put it into perspective, it’s like trying to listen to someone in a crowded room- you might catch yourself saying “What?” multiple times simply because of the background noise. The Melody A3 works to eliminate needless noise.

OTE hearing aid design was something the Melody designers targeted for its ease in maintaining, cleaning, and use. The Melody A3 is an over the ear design that is made of extremely light materials. Even if other OTE models have a reputation for being uncomfortable, the Melody A3 contours to the outer ear to the point where the wearer doesn’t even realize they have anything on! Of course, it also blends well so others don’t notice either.

The amount of hearing loss you have incurred will determine what caliber of hearing aids you will want to look at. A doctor can determine the specific amount of hearing loss you have observed by issuing an audiogram. Those who have extreme hearing loss, up to 110 dB, should look into purchasing a hearing aid along the lines of the Melody A3. Minimal hearing loss may not need a high intensity hearing aid, but the lesser expensive hearing aids have less features on average.

Pricing on hearing aids will vary. The Melody A3 is one of the high-end products, so it can reach as high as $875 at the time of publishing. Lower end models from the Melody line of hearing aids are much less expensive, so if your budget isn’t at this level, they are a good “go to” for you. Retailers should be more than happy to handle questions and give out advice on the situation.

In Conclusion

The Melody line of hearing aids has been long revered as one of the best hearing aid lines for its price. The developers continue to research and create better technologies to include in future releases, making it an exciting time for those with hearing loss to find help.
