Hi David.
I purchased a set of electronic earmuffs recently. I like them mostly for the range so i can still hear the commands.
My father, who is severerly hard of hearing, tried them on. He normally wears hearing aids. He said that these seemed to work for him as good if not better than his regular hearing aids.
If you have not tried them i'd say give it a try at the store. You may be surprised to find out you can hear things you are now missing

Good luck
Dan
