A method for correcting sound for the hearing impaired includes analyzing an incoming sound into frequency channels and computing a group delay of each of the frequency channels that is expected in a healthy ear. A correction is defined as a percentage less than 100% of the group delay (GD) that a given impaired ear has compared to the group delay of the healthy ear. The amount of delay for the correction as a function of time is computed for each frequency channel, which delay is imposed on each frequency channel. The signal levels are scaled to adjust for audibility, after which the delayed and scaled signals from all frequency channels are combined into an outgoing sound.
