Binaural Beam Forming & Ultra Focus

ReSound Omnia Custom incorporates new technology that allows all 4 of the ‘directional’ microphones on top of the two hearing aids to communicate with each other (inter-ear radio wave technology).

This gives us ‘binaural beamforming‘ – and an improvement in speech recognition in noise (under simple laboratory conditions) has been reported to be higher than what is typical with independently operating directional hearing aids.

Binaural beamforming has been designed to balance maximising speech in noise to the front whilst preserving spatial hearing cues for localisation of sounds all around.  Giving great performance and natural sound results.

Front Focus

Resound’s ‘Front Focus‘ technology is available in OMNIA and is a development of their ‘Ultra Focus’ (in the preceding hearing aid ‘Resound ONE’) – and despite sounding less impressive, there are claims that Front Focus gives a massive improvement for hearing front facing speech in high level noise. Watch the video at the top of this page.

ReSound Custom Made is available at 3 technology levels – 9, 7 and 5 (9 being the best).

The hearing aids come fully loaded with technology – see the feature chart below.

State of the art battery charging technology

Using lithium-ion batteries which do not drain over the course of their life (2 years)

Giving:

• 24 hours standard use with 3 hours full charge
• 16 hours use with 1 hour charge
• 8 hours use with 30 minute charge
• 4 years full performance

Usage times will be reduced if streaming audio – i.e. 25 hours on a full charge if streaming 100% of the time. Usage times will reduce gradually but performance will not.

The premium (larger) charging unit can give a further 5 days of portable charging (if fully charged) – ideal for short trips away.

After 4 years it is advised to get the battery changed (we offer 5 year warranty).

PLEASE NOTE – The hearing aids come with one charger of your choice as per our price list.

ReSound – Remote Assistance

We now have the ability to fine tune your hearing aid settings remotely.

It is important that your hearing aids are set up properly in person, but remote programming allows us to fine tune your hearing aids without you being present – the changes are sent to you for you to upload via your phone app.

Remote Assist means that you can drive to Crystal Hearing from afar to take advantage of our prices and not have to keep driving back for minor set up changes.
