Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2006125679A2] The invention relates to a hearing system comprising: a hearing device to be worn at or in a user's ear (24) for supplying audio signals to said user and comprising a sound attenuation portion (18, 40) for attenuating ambient sound before reaching the user's ear (24), means (26, 28) for producing audio signals at a controlled level, a loudspeaker (14) which is included in the attenuation portion and which is oriented towards the user's ear canal (22) for providing sound corresponding to the audio signal produced by the audio signal producing means (26, 28) to the user's ear canal (22), a microphone (16) which is included in the attenuation portion (18, 40) and which is oriented towards the user's ear canal (22) for capturing audio signals from the sound provided by the loudspeaker (14) to the user's ear canal (22), and a level control unit (28, 30, 32) adapted to control the level of the audio signals produced by the audio signal producing means (26, 28) according to the audio signals captured by the microphone (16).
