I can finally take charge of my hearing myself

Carl has gathered a lot of experience in the course of his mere 48 years – especially on the topics of fine dining, music . . . and hearing aids.

He’s someone who won’t settle for anything less than the best – which is why he’s chosen Widex EVOKE™ for his hearing aid.

Here are his thoughts on hearing:

I have two great loves in my life – other than my wife, of course. Food, and music. Well, maybe three, if you count wine too, but I consider that part of the dining experience.

Everybody knows that every piece of music sounds different. But every restaurant has its own melody, too. 

And no matter where I’m eating, or what I’m hearing, I want to be the conductor of my listening experience.
Seriously, now I just use my iPhone to make a few quick adjustments if I’m not satisfied with the sound. It’s all very intuitive. And I’ve discovered that it also adapts quickly itself, even without my input.

I mean, do you know how hard it is to describe some things? And the problems would just keep popping up.

My wife and I eat out at least a couple times a week, and we go to a lot of concerts. Mainly jazz. Sometimes classical. So when you take my office and our friends into account too, there’s lots of different types of sounds I’m exposed to.

With EVOKE, I can finally take charge of my hearing myself. I can BE that conductor.

It used to be really annoying with my old hearing aid to have to keep going back to the store and try to describe problems, so I could get adjustments made.
