At rehersal last night I got to talking with one of our electric guitarists who wears hearing aides. He was complaing how difficult things are getting with his hearing aides, trying to hear his "in ears" with his present head phones, and the stage bleed from the drum kit and the backstage miced amp from the main guitarist.
He is presently using a really cheap pair of ear phones jacked into his aviom monitor. I suggested getting headphones that covered his ears, and possibly "noise cancelling" headphones. His only comment was that on some headphones he's tried, putting them over his ears caused feedback on the hearing aides..and if he turned the hearing aides down, then when he went off stage he couldn't hear without turning them back up.
He asked if I had any suggestions on headphone brands, and how much to expect to pay...and that's were my knowlege hit a brick wall.
Anyone out there have any recommendations so I could assist him further ?
Thanks,
Mark
