Abstract
It should be possible to produce hearing aids in a simpler and more compact fashion. It is for this reason that a hearing aid is proposed, the loudspeaker device of which is shielded by a shielding device, more particularly a housing, which can shield both high-frequency and low-frequency electromagnetic fields. The shielding device is at least in part made of an amorphous, soft-magnetic metal with a preferred direction of the nanocrystalline structures. Using this, a plurality of separate shielding elements can be dispensed with and a hearing aid can have a smaller embodiment.
