I spend a lot of my time thinking about you. Well, maybe not you, but someone like you. I probably haven't met you, but I imagine you have tinnitus, ringing in the ears or hearing loss. Out of all of the video content I make here on my YouTube channel and all of the services we provide at Treble Health, the goal is for better hearing and less tinnitus. Sounds rather simple, right? How do we get better hearing and less tinnitus?
With the use of technology, I've been studying what are the applications here for someone who has tinnitus, ringing in the ears, or hearing loss. This video will focus on the newest online hearing aids and why I believe having a personalized individual consultation with a doctor who understands the whole market, gives you the best chance of getting it right the first time for your hearing loss.
At Treble Health, we use a validated online hearing test. If you can check your hearing in 10 minutes from the comfort of your home, without having to drive to a clinic, then that's saving you time. From the online hearing test, we may recommend additional medical tests or hearing aids to fit your needs.

The Costco Kirkland Signature 10 hearing aids offer the most extraordinary value of any raw device on the market, though they are slightly offset by anecdotal reports of inconsistent professional services. In terms of the hearing aid itself, this is an exceptional device for the price of $1400. The Signature 10 is a white-labeled Phonak Paradise P90 RT, which is listed as the top overall hearing aid on the market elsewhere on this list and in our “Best of 2022” YouTube video.
It is a phenomenal all-around device, with a natural and clear sound quality in various environments, and all the most important features (specifically a rechargeable battery, Bluetooth for streaming, and a smartphone app). The trial period is 180 days, the longest available on the market, and the warranty is a respectable 2 years for loss and 3 years for repair. If you purchased the P90 in a traditional clinic, you could pay up to 500% more than the Costco price. However, it is a mistake to judge the Costco offering by the device alone. The expertise of the person working with you is of utmost importance, especially if you’ve never used a hearing aid before. In fact, the price of a traditional hearing aid typically includes audiology services for years; which makes up at least half of the overall cost.
Some users of Costco hearing aids report having great service performed by audiologists, while others had providers with less training or questionable expertise. We’ve heard of multiple accounts of long wait times for follow-up appointments, and sub-optimal care generally. It seems that in terms of the availability of expert audiologists and the quality of services, Costco is a mixed bag. All things considered though, the Costco Kirkland Signature 10 hearing aids are a great value. If you have a Costco nearby, they’re worth your consideration.
Bose Sound Control hearing aids are the newest online hearing aids available for under $1,000. Pamela took some time to share her experience of using the Bose hearing aids. Overall, she had some good experiences and some bad experiences with the hearing aids.
Phonak, a perennial leader in the world of hearing aid technology, created another exceptional product in the Paradise P90RL. Most importantly, the P90s deliver on sound quality. Our patients say that the Paradise sounds clear and crisp, while maintaining a natural quality. In addition, it has essentially all the other features you would want in a hearing aid: a rechargeable battery that lasts all day, a comfortable and discreet fit, Bluetooth streaming for phone calls and music/media, an app for volume adjustments, the option for a telecoil, waterproofing, and an array of accessories. It is reliable and sturdy, rarely needing to be repaired. It typically comes with a 3 year warranty for repair and loss.
At most clinics the programming, fine-tuning, and all audiology services associated with the hearing aids will be included in the price, for at least the length of the warranty. You get the benefit of in-person care, including Real Ear Measures which any quality audiologist should perform. This verifies that the output of the hearing aids is personalized to your hearing, and that you can get the best performance out of these great Paradise P90RLs. If money was no object, this would be the hearing aid we recommend, because in our opinion it is the best hearing aid of 2022.
Dr. Ben and Dr. Michelle cover the five different categories of tinnitus and their recommended treatments. Whether you are dealing with mild tinnitus and want to treat it before it becomes a problem, or tinnitus and hearing loss have impacted your day-to-day life, your tinnitus is treatable.
Do any of these categories sound like you? Reach out to us at TrebleHealth.com
Based on our research and testing, Lively offers the best overall experience for buying hearing aids online in 2022. Critically, they provide telehealth support from audiologists. They also use high quality hearing aids, which are white-labeled ReSound aids (a reputable, if not elite, hearing aid brand that has been in business for decades). Their audiologists can personalize and program the Lively hearing aid in real-time using a full suite of programming software; no other direct-to-consumer hearing aid brand offers that important service. The hearing aids are rechargeable, they have Bluetooth for an app and streaming, and they come with a 100 day free trial and three year warranty.
There are some drawbacks with Lively, specifically that their hearing aids are the value-level model, i.e. not top-of-the-line. Also, ReSound aids can be slightly under-fit at first, and unless you ask the audiologist for more volume you may not get the full benefit of the hearing aids (and since Lively operates online, they do not verify the fitting using the gold standard Real Ear Measures). All in all, Lively is an excellent value for what you get. If you want to buy hearing aids online and/or you’re on a budget, Lively is a great option.
The Nuheara IQbuds² MAX combines Bluetooth audio streaming and situational hearing loss amplification in a way that very few competitors have been able to do.
