Digital vs. analog hearing aids
Analog hearing aids simply amplify the sounds around you while digital hearing aids convert the sound waves into digital signals.
Digital hearing aids are usually fitted and fine-tuned by a hearing care expert. These modern hearing aids can also be programmed to adjust automatically to the sound environment (unlike analog hearing aids).
As technological advancements increase, the capabilities of the latest digital hearing aids are phenomenal.

How do digital hearing aids work?
Modern, digital hearing aids work by amplifying sound via a three-component system:
- Microphone – Receives the sound waves and converts them into electrical signals
- Amplifier – Increases the strength of the sound signals and sends them to the ear
- Receiver/speaker - Converts the amplified electrical signal into sound and delivers it into the ear canal
Digital hearing aids automatically adjust the volume and listening programs based on the environment.
