@viloadave Thank you for the link! I've got a pair of Starkey LIVIO hearing aids on trial for 3 weeks. I can't stand them for music and they're over $6k for the pair. Woe is me.
I have Widex Dream 440. The price is around $3500, which I consider a great bargain compared to the many others I have tried that are more expensive but do not work for music (in my opinion). Those Starkey you are trying for $6K a pair sound like a really BAD deal to me.
By the way, I am still playing the violin and viola and I can tell you that only the WIDEX worked for me playing the string instruments, and in fact if you listen to classical music and appreciate the sound of strings (violin, viola, cello, etc) the WIDEX are a must.
