Phonak are a global leader in the development and manufacture of state-of-the-art hearing aid and wireless accessory solutions. They have a longstanding history of releasing innovative technologies such as:

• industry-leading bluetooth connectivity enabling direct connection with any bluetooth enabled phone (smart and non-smart phones)
• Phonak Roger; a renowned wireless technology that uses multiple microphones to transmit the speaker’s voice or TV audio directly into the hearing aids
• integrated motion sensor technology that steers the hearing aid microphone direction based on user movement
• active vent receiver; a revolutionary venting design that physically changes size depending on the listening situation to either optimise naturalness of the user’s own voice or prioritise listening in noise or streamed audio.

Phonak’s latest generation of hearing aids, the Paradise range, was released in 2021 and incorporates all of the very best technologies and features from Phonak.

Starkey was founded in the 1960s and has a consistent history of releasing new and exciting technologies. For example, they were the first manufacturer to produce a custom in-the-ear hearing aid. More recently, Starkey became the first to introduce motion sensors into their hearing aids as well as the popular world’s first wireless custom rechargeable hearing aids.

Starkey ‘s newly released (February 2022) Evolv AI range packs all of their very best technologies and features into a full line-up of styles from the tiny invisible-in-canal right through to the power behind-the-ear.

Signia, formerly Siemens, are consistently known for offering original approaches to hearing aid design. Signia offer a solution for everyone; from the small and discreet design of the ready-to-wear Signia Silk X to the music earbud style of the Active Pro. Or perhaps the aesthetically pleasing Styletto AX with its slim design and attractive colour options.

In 2021, Signia released their new platform, Augmented Xperience (AX). This included a ground-breaking approach to sound processing, the use of two separate processors; one for speech and the other for environmental noise. Signia claim that this split-processing approach creates a greater contrast between speech and noise, both improving a user’s speech understanding in noise and their spatial awareness.
