Aim: To compare performance on a song recognition task of bilaterally combined electric and acoustic hearing (bimodal stimulation) with electric or acoustic hearing alone. Methods: Subjects were 14 adults with cochlear implants (CI) who continued to use a hearing aid (HA) in one/both ears. Subjects were asked to identify excerpts from 15 popular songs, which were familiar to them, presented in a random order via a single loudspeaker. Presentation conditions were fixed in order: bimodal, CI alone and then HA alone. Musical excerpts were presented in each condition with and then without lyrics. Results: In a subgroup of subjects (n = 8) with better low-frequency residual hearing (thresholds
