Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1379102A2] The method has the signal propagation time between an input transducer (2) for an input acoustic signal and an output transducer (4) converting an electrical signal into an output acoustic signal measured for the hearing aid (1) for a first ear, with transmission of a corresponding signal to the hearing aid (1') for the second ear, used for matching the signal propagation time between its corresponding input transducer (2') and output transducer (4'). An Independent claim for a binaural hearing aid system is also included.
