Abstract (en)

This invention relates to a hearing aid (10) comprising a casing (2) accommodating an electroacoustic transducer (1, 1'); a signal processing circuitry (3), configured to receive from the at least an electroacoustic transducer (1) an electrical input signal and/or to provide said at least an electroacoustic transducer (1') with an electrical output signal; and a magnetically actuatable switch (4) for adjusting the operational parameters of the signal processing circuitry (3). The magnetically actuatable switch (4) and the electroacoustic transducer (1, 1') form together a single module (50) which comprises at least one electric contact (8', 8") that is shared between the at least an electroacoustic transducer (1, 1') and the magnetically actuatable switch (4).
