Abstract (en)

The invention relates to a hearing device, e.g., a hearing aid (200), wherein open-cell foam (208) is compressed between a receiver (206) and a second section, e.g., receiver chamber (220), of the hearing device, a method for providing such hearing device, and a method for identifying a desired property of such open-cell foam (208) of such hearing device. The hearing device comprises a first section comprising the open-cell foam (208) being compressed, such that the open-cell foam (208) has at least a strain value of a first point of an elastic modulus-strain curve of the open-cell foam (208) and at most the strain value of a third point of the elastic modulus-strain curve, and such that the receiver (206) is connected to the second section via the first section.
