Claim Text:
1. A binaural hearing aid system comprising a first hearing aid, a second hearing aid, a wireless link component and a synchronizer, wherein said first hearing aid comprises a first acoustical-electrical transducer for transforming an acoustic signal into a first audio input signal; a first processor configured to amplify a first processor input signal and provide a first processor output signal; a first electrical-acoustical output transducer adapted for converting the processor output signal into sound; a first sound generator adapted for providing a first synthesized signal; a first frequency shifter adapted for shifting a first electrical audio signal in frequency hereby providing a first frequency-shifted electrical audio signal, wherein said first electrical audio signal is one of said first audio input signal and said first synthesized signal; a first summer adapted for adding the first frequency-shifted electrical audio signal to the other one of said first audio input signal and said first synthesized signal to provide said first processor input signal; wherein the wireless link component is configured for establishing a wireless connection between said first and said second hearing aid of the binaural hearing aid system; and wherein the synchronizer is adapted for synchronizing the operation of said first hearing aid and said second hearing aid at least with respect to said first frequency-shifted electrical audio signal.
