  digital sound processing are based on the
  combined information.

Hard-wired Hearing Aids and Wireless Hearing Aids

• People that use hard-wired hearing aids may
  experience a number of issues including sound
  reverberation and an adverse signal-to-noise
  ratio.Using the remote microphone that comes with
  wireless hearing aids is advantageous because
  there is much less background noise as well as
  reverberation.With remote microphones it is also
  easier to understand words from a distance.

  signals directly to hearing aids and cochlear
  implants equipped with telecoils. Many people
