Abstract:
An output transducer is coupled to a support structure, and the support structure configured to contact one or more of the tympanic membrane, an ossicle, the oval window or the round window. An input transducer is configured for placement near an ear canal opening to receive high frequency localization cues. A sound inhibiting structure, such as an acoustic resistor or a screen, may be positioned at a location along the ear canal between the tympanic membrane and the input transducer to inhibit feedback. A channel can be coupled to the sound or feedback inhibiting structure to provide a desired frequency response profile of the sound or feedback inhibiting structure.

Claim (Index 9):
The hearing apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein an acoustic damper value for the hearing apparatus is determined by one or more of feedback measured from the hearing apparatus, a desired amount of attenuation, a location of the support when placed in the ear canal, or a measured characteristic impedance of the ear canal.
