HR Archives | January 1995 Hearing Review
By Harry Teder
This 1995 article by the renown hearing aid engineer Harry Teder shows why the kitchen can be an extremely noisy place for people who are wearing hearing aids. Teder provides measurements of dishes and kitchen utensils–as well as nail clippers!–that generate sound peaks in the 80-105 dB range.
