    First Appointment for LEVO

    I tried the Levo System. Personally, I think it is a scam. It's way overpriced, costing thousands of dollars with only small clinical studies to back it up. The so-called FDA approval means only that it's safe and NOT that it actually works. All you get is ridiculously simple software...

    Because you can’t reliably measure dB(a,c etc), you can do dBV, but there isn’t a good real world example of what dBV is. Also placebo shouldn’t be involved because the user can’t differentiate between the timing signals. So they should (will know when study is out) be compared to placebo...

    LEVO has the same problem with high pitched sufferers. On that front, if you can still hear the frequency that your tinnitus is in, you still benefit from ACRN, just not much. About half as much, because you're getting the lower tones.
