Default Oticon Connectline

I've just stumped up for the Oticon Connectline to go with my Epoqs. Been using the TV link this evening - fabulous! No time delay on the Bluetooth link, can cut to cell phone at any time etc etc. Got to test drive the landline phone link tomorrow.

I also just got the bluetooth connections set up for my Epoqs. The TV and landline phone work so well for me! The cell connection wasn't the best, but that could be a compatibility issue (not all cell phones are compatible with the streamer). Yet, I can still use the cell phone. It's just not as perfectly clear as the landline connection.

The neck loop and microphone are definitely sensitive so people on the other end of the line hear movement on my end. It doesn't matter with the TV. The TV is very good.

The only bad thing is the iPod connection. Listening through the streamer is like listening through crappy headphones. Yes, I can hear it fine. But good headphones without my hearing aids sound far better than using the streamer to send the music into my HAs. Maybe they will improve that with their next model.

Hi,

I got my Streamer a week ago and, so far, have only used the TV adapter which I am not happy with. It seems that the Streamer program has too much bass. Also, I don't like that fact that you can't use your own programs nor can you adjust the volume on one aid while leaving the other the same; changes volume on both aids at same time. The Streamer disables control on the aids and provides limited control on the Streamer. Not happy with this, particularly the heavy bass sound.

Roger

Tony,

Were you able to get them on a trial basis?
Can you tell us (ballpark) the Cost?
Are they (TV & Phone) sold as a set or individually?

The cost (with non-insurance courtesy discount) is a follows:
Streamer: $225
TV Adapter: $200
Landline Adapt: $150
Package (all 3 units): $425

Also have the standard 30-day trial for these items. If not to my satisfaction, any one or all components are returnable for refund...so a good deal!

Tony

Thanks for the info..

My AuD's office said they did not have them yet but that they would be $750.

Kind of unusual cause my AuD is normally less $$$ than others in our area.

I'm gonna have to find another source for this stuff.. I think it would be a great suggestion for a Christmas Gift.

750 seems to high, the 450$ seems reasonable...

Reedy,
You can get the connectline tv adapter from your audi but you also have to have a streamer. You can also get a Motorola bluetooth tv transmitter from Amazon that does the same thing once it's paired.
