AGX device for "treating" Tinnitus?
« on: July 25, 2013, 06:04:18 am »
I noticed an ad in my local paper today for a free presentation at the senior center demonstrating the AGX device to alleviate tinnitus. I suspect it is something like a hearing aid that provides white noise. I know that nothing makes tinnitus goes away. Does anyone have any experience with this device and can you advise on its effectiveness?

Yes, a quick internet search reveals that they are hearing aids that cost between $3000 and $7000.

What I found online hypes the product but I haven't found any reviews pro or con.
3/15/18 12mm x 6mm x5mm
9/21/16 12mm x 7mm x 5mm
3/23/15 12mm x 5.5mm x 4mm
3/13/14 12mm x 6mm x 4mm
8/1/13 14mm x 5mm x 4mm (Expected)
1/22/13 12mm x 3mm (Gamma Knife)
10/10/12 11mm x 4mm x 5mm
4/4/12 9mm x 4mm x 3mm (Diagnosis)

Hi;
   In the latest issue of "Hearing Health" magazine ( a link to this is on this site. Maybe perform a search from the upper right hand corner? ) . ReSound Verso TS is also advertising a hearing aid with a tinnitus helper also ( last page ).
   My feeling is if the HA produces a white sound, it could not be in the speech range of hZs. In thinking about tinnitus signatures, and their peaks and valleys ( ~~ ), maybe the aid levels tinnital signatures by filling in the valleys ( with white noise ) in frequencies outside the range of human speech?
