Abstract
A binaural hearing aid system for a user is set forth. The system includes a casing adapted and constructed to encase a hearing aid system suitable for wearing below the neck of the user. A first digital signal processor, having an audio input from a first microphone of the hearing system, is also provided. The first digital signal processor produces a first audio output corresponding to a first hearing profile. A second digital signal processor having the audio input from the second microphone of the hearing system is also provided. The second digital signal processor produces a second audio output corresponding to a second hearing profile.
