I have been trialing the Philips 9050 for 2 months with much frustration. Started with fitting done by Costco, then had a couple fitting adjustments. Although rem was done, they only used it to make sure aids were working properly and not for fitting. I eventually insisted on rem for fitting. She said, you won’t like it, and I didn’t. I also asked her to switch to dsl5. Nothing is good. Noisy or echo environments, while challenging for all, are not good. Background is noisier than close speech an if anyone nearby has a mid to high tone voice, it takes over. In all but hifi I hear a constant background crackle with frequent abrupt stopping of sound. I inquired that maybe they are defective and they said rem would catch that. Really want to make this work! The TV adapter is all that I am happy with! Help!!!
