| If you ever decide to get hearing aids, be sure to have your provider give you a “theater” setting. If the theater transmits its sound, your aids will pick it up. I find that the sound I get on this setting is true and well balanced. I went to a performance of Momma Mia recently, and even the rock music was loud enough to energize but didn’t hurt my ears. All best, Bill, in San Diego |

| I think the T setting stands for t-coil/tecoil or telecoil. If your aid has it, hearing can be enhanced for many situations and devices. | |

| Yes, that’s correct. My setting combines picking up a T-coil (which not all venues have, as it’s expensive to install) with picking up transmitted sound. Works very well in many places (I was especially happy that West End theatres in London I visited on my recent trip made it easy to hear speech from the stage). Bill, in San Diego |

| Bill in San Diego. I find it interesting that I never have trouble hearing the actors in London theatres (which are often larger than NY theatres) and I do not have a hearing aid. My problem with hearing actors is limited to the US. | |
