The effectiveness of directional microphone alignment in the Baha Divino

The primary objective of this research study is to determine if off-vertical directional microphone alignments of the Baha Divino significantly impact the Reception Threshold for Sentences (RTS, in dB) using the Hearing in Noise Test (HINT) in a diffuse listening situation.

Dimensions of the acoustic reflex as measured in a background of noise

This study examines whether background noise, presented at 10 dB below its reflex threshold, affects the acoustic reflex (AR) response for pure tones presented subsequent to the onset of the noise.
