This review is from: Walker’s Game Ear Ultra Ear ITC (Pair) (Health and Beauty)
This hearing amplifier does what is intended, it is not a prescription hearing aid but having tried a prescription aid I consider it to be very similar (but does not cost 1800 Euro) Any disadvantages such as amplifying all sound and hearing chewing etc are very little worse than the prescription type which I have tried. Ideal to amplify the TV. A very good buy for the money.

This review is from: Walker’s Game Ear Ultra Ear ITC (Pair) (Health and Beauty)
I have nerve deafness in mid range and understand from the audiologist that this is a very difficult to set up a program under the old technology. So, I spent $2,100 per ear to get one of the best units with four software programs, one for normal conversation, one for high noise levels, one for soft voices, and one for reflected sound in a restaurant. I had these units for 7 years and they steadily became more difficult.
I would run to the audiologist, pay big bucks and have the program readjusted, and volume turned up. All this time and trouble and all people had to do was yell. Then I saw Walker’s Ultra Ear Hearing Enhancer at Amazon.com. It had its own volume control, tone control, and compression circuit. That is everything I need, at a terrific price. So I bought a set for myself and one set for my wife.
When I got it, it didn’t work at all. Then I found that the little instruction manual for this product shows the battery incorrectly installed. That will cause many customers much frustration. If your unit doesn’t work no matter what you do, turn the battery around. That said, once you have the battery in the right position adjustments are needed. This little computer has surprising power.
For my ear problem, I have turned the sound volume all the way down, and the tone control on high. That enhances what I can hear and my level of hearing is comfortable. As the battery runs down, just turn up the volume. This little computer must be part of the new technology. I do not remember finding something like this years back. It is powerful and ideal for me. Thank you Amazon for your astute study of new products.

I read the reviews for this Walker’s Game Ear, and they were all over the lot, so I didn’t know what to expect. I agree with the folks who liked the product. I haven’t used them extensively, but in my trials I find they amplify well with minimal distortion, and no, I haven’t tried them in windy conditions. I give them a five star rating because I haven’t found another product at even at several times the cost of this that is nearly as effective. Incidentally, a national mail order catalog listed the product at $65 plus $11 shipping. What’s not to like?

Hearing amplifier,
