Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2434780A1] The present invention relates to a hearing aid which comprises an occlusion suppression system, a receiver with extended low frequency response or static pressure capability plus defined subsonic filtering to reduce undesirable effects due to large amounts of subsonic energy produced primarily by jaw motion which may exist in the frequency region below 10Hz and improve suppression of occlusion signals in a hearing aid user's ear canal.
