Abstract
A hearing instrument includes a housing and at least one electroacoustic input transducer adapted to generate a corresponding electrical input signal from an ambient sound. The housing has a sound entry opening. A sound channel, which guides a sound path from the sound entry opening to the input transducer, is formed inside the housing. A contamination filter, which is transmissive for sound, at least partially covers a first cross section of the sound channel. The sound channel forms a sound chamber between the contamination filter and the sound entry opening, in such a way that the housing partially overlaps the sound chamber in the region of the sound entry opening.
