Real 1s and the Bluetooth has a range of about 1 foot. If I pair my iPhone and stream music it will cut out if I put it in my front pocket. They were basically a $3000 mistake, after insurance.
- mgerdts 3y agoI have a Kirkland KS9 that supports Bluetooth. It cuts out at about 30 to 40 feet with a wall or two in between. It cost $700 retail, the hearing test, fitting, follow-up, and repairs are free with a Costco membership. The Bluetooth audio quality is not as good as the normal amplification or a decent headset, but it is functional for listening and calls. If I had two aids I would probably care more about getting it tuned for better music listening.
