According to the present invention, a hearing aid is provided having a housing with an open canal section that is adapted for fitting in the ear canal of a user and having a short vent the longitudinal extension of which is shorter than the longitudinal extension of the open canal section, and an output port for emission of sound towards the eardrum of the user when inserted in the ear canal, and a closed pinna section for enclosing hearing aid components and that is attached to the open canal section and adapted to be positioned outside the ear canal in front of the pinna when the open canal section is inserted in the ear canal, the short vent substantially preventing the occlusion effect.
