My husband came home from his dulcimer practice the other night talking about an  Omni Chord. He said they sound beautiful.

She was like a kid in a candy shop.  Later on in the day she heard a noise and asked what it was.  It turned out that it was my dad whistling.  She did not want him to stop whistling because whistling was something her father did and this was the first time in her life she could hear it.  My friend was in her 60's when she got her implant.
