- In this video we take a close look at the decision between custom molded earmolds or ready to wear rubber domes. The differences can impact sound quality, streaming and cost.

Awesome job 😊
Good video. One thing I wish was touched on was for those people with frequent ear infections/pain and which one may be better for those situations as I seem to be an accidental troublemaker at my ENT/Audiologist. 😢
Hey Blake cool channel...its nice to know that there is a channel like this one. I was diagnosed with moderate to severe hearing loss at 34 years old its like 80% in one ear and 20% in the other..iv been wearing regular smal hearing aids behind the ear with a mold. I used to think the quality of the hearing aid is very bad because i still struggle with low frequency sounds, sometimes everything just sounds unatural, and i take them out if im in a place with lots of people and very noisy..yes domes can actually make things sound more natural clear but like the Doc mentioned tons of feedback and i use a headsets for work so the feedback can be bad. But latley ive just been streaming from the hearing aid, i just dislike having to carry around an adapter whoch loses battery in a few hours.
Thanks for sharing your situation! What brand are you wearing currently?
My 85 year old mother has the custom one. She struggles putting it into her ear and the safety ringing doesnt stop. So she stops using it. Now im gonna try a normal dome for her
How do clean the little black part that goes in my custom made ear aid. I appears very sticky and is not working well?
I switched to custom ear molds about a year ago and I think I like them better. It does take a little more effort to install and remove and it is a little less comfortable sometimes. They are very secure and won’t fall out. I also think they are more consistent. The depth in the ear never varies. When programmed with real ear measurements you know you are getting your accurate prescription all the time.
I have very narrow middle ear canals (both ears) so the ordinary moulds just fall out. I would like custom moulds because I think they will stay in and not fall out. Can you tell me where I could find out where to buy them. I live in Lincolnshire in the UK. Thank you
Its somewhat complicated if you have a M&RIE receiver with respect to venting and feedback. The ratio of length to diameter of the vent must be calculated carefully to achieve the best results if a moulded style is required. Also occlusion can be a big issue the more closed the dome is. In the end sometimes its a compromise. A video on this same topic would be good but focussing on M&RIE as this is such a great innovation and technology that it deserves some focus in its own right.
What is the difference between, Hersoundly, ZipHearing and Florid ent😁?
Thanks for the info. I was wondering if the custom mold is considered more durable, especially for children. Also wondering if the domes are better for people that struggle with ear itch.
Right now I have the dome and they actually make my ears itch
That's normal usually something like audinel gel or an ear lube would help with the itchiness you're experiencing@@user-zn1ry8he2o

Custom made rubber mould
Cleaning. You don’t give any advice on cleaning the custom ear device.
first 2m wasted telling us what "custom" means. turned off after that! waste of time.
Appreciate the feedback. We are working to improve our videos! Our latest are getting better!
