Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Hörhilfe mit wenigstens einem Schallempfänger und einem Schallerzeuger. Die Hörhilfe weist eine mit dem Schallerzeuger wirkverbundene Audiosignaleinheit auf, wobei die Audiosignaleinheit ausgebildet ist, ein von einem menschlichen Ohr wahrnehmbares Audiosignal zu erzeugen. Das Audiosignal weist mehrere zueinander verschiedene Frequenzen eines Frequenzbereichs auf. Die Audiosignaleinheit weist wenigstens einen Tonsignalgenerator auf. Der wenigstens eine Tonsignalgenerator ist ausgebildet, das Audiosignal mit wenigstens einer einen Ton repräsentierenden Grundfrequenz und mit Oberwellen der Grundfrequenz zu erzeugen.
