So I talked to my audiologist about the new Spock ear. I'm thinking to try it out. I had molds done to fit about a week ago. I've heard great reviews. Anyone here try it out?
I guess it is fabricated in Vancouver B.C. Took a tour of the fabrication center the other day and saw my mold.

Here is a diagram of the operation.

Spock Ear? What is that? Didn't you know I would ask? ;D Funny!

I think Transear is taking so long now because I keep sending mine back. Again, and again, and again. I have hopes that sooner or later it will be right.
At this point spock ear seems a possbility.
