binax Hearing Aids From Siemens On The Isle Of Man
binax™ BestSound™ Technology from Siemens
Introducing binax™. A world first in hearing aid technology.
Hear 25% Better Than Normal Hearing People In Noise
Hearing technology that is clinically proven to outperform normal hearing in demanding listening environments*. binax™ is the next generation of BestSound™ Technology that enables wearers to achieve up to 25% better speech recognition than individuals with normal hearing in challenging listening environments like restaurants and cocktail parties*. **Studies conducted at University of Northern Colorado (2014) and Oldenburg Horzentrum (2013) showed that Speech Reception Thresholds (SRT) in cocktail-party situations improved up to 2.9 dB for wearers with mild to moderate hearing loss using binax™ with Narrow Directionality, compared to people with normal hearing. This corresponds to over 25% improvement in speech understanding.
For the first time ever, experience hearing aids that solve the two most common hearing aid complaints.
*Hearing in demanding environments like restaurants, cocktail parties, or the car.
*Hearing in windy environments like the golf course or on a boat.
**Hearing aid owners are more likely to have more difficulty hearing in noise (66% “quite difficult” to “extremely difficult”, versus 34%, “somewhat difficult” to “slightly difficult”) – MarkeTrak VIII: 25-Year Trends in the Hearing Health Market, October 2009.
Binax, Proven Technology From Siemens
We are very happy to have the binax range on our price list at Island Hearing, the feedback from wearers is really excellent and the clinical results speak for themselves. Siemens have made a claim that the hearing aids will help hearing impaired people hear better than normal hearing people in noise. We have never heard a claim like that made in the hearing industry, this really is a first. However, the studys seem to back up their claim.
