If you’re in the market for hearing aids, there has been no better time. Hearing aids today are sophisticated modern marvels. Treating your hearing loss with hearing aids is one of the most important things you can do to keep yourself healthy and feeling great for the long term.
People who wear hearing aids report overwhelming satisfaction with them, and even earn more in the workplace than those who don’t treat their hearing loss. Signia’s Silk line of hearing aids is a great option for those who want their hearing aids to be totally inconspicuous, and they offer functionality like never before thanks to powerful computing and integration with smartphones.
A Discreet Choice
Silk is a completely-in-canal (CIC) hearing aid. This type of hearing aid is placed inside the ear canal, and a discreet, translucent clear silicone pull-tab is used to remove it. Signia’s Silk hearing aids are among the smallest available. If you want your hearing aids to be totally discreet, they will accomplish that. Only those you tell about your hearing aids will know you’re wearing them! You can even wear most models of earbuds while you have your hearing aids in. Signia Silk is the way to wear hearing aids with minimal effect on the rest of your life, period.
Comfortable Silicone Sleeves
Other CIC-type hearing aids require custom fitting for tips that work in your ear canal. Signia Silk offers four highly adaptable silicone “Click Sleeves.” These can be replaced when necessary, while offering a level of comfort and adaptability unmatched by other models. The silicone moves with your ear canals as they expand and contract while you speak or chew, so you can be sure to have unparalleled comfort no matter what you’re doing throughout the day. As an added bonus, you can take your hearing aids with you after your first appointment, rather than waiting for custom tips to be created!
Signia Xperience Technology
Signia Silk employs their Xperience technology, OVP (Own Voice Processing) helping you to adjust to the sound of your own voice, and powerful DSP (digital signal processing) that is actually able to distinguish between speech and background noise. This means you can hear the person you’re talking with loud and clear, while background noise is minimized. In situations where there is a lot of background noise, this means you’ll actually be able to hear speech more clearly than those with normal hearing!
“OneMic” directionality further helps your Signia Silk hearing aids focus on the sound in front of you, rather than boosting extraneous background noise. You’ll still be able to hear ambient sound, but the focus will be the sound coming from in front of you.
Ready for Phone Calls and Music
Whereas BTE (behind-the-ear) models put the hearing aids’ microphones outside the ear canal, Signia Silk has the microphones in your ear canal. This means you can use the phone, headphones, and any other sound sources just as you always have. With “Twin Phone” functionality, you have the option of hearing your phone calls in both ears, as long as the phone is held close to one of your hearing aids. Some variations in the Silk line will also allow connectivity to various audio sources, so you can stream audio directly to your hearing aids.
Signia App and TeleCare Remote Support
Using your smartphone, you can connect directly to your hearing aid provider no matter where you are. They can provide support directly through the phone to make adjustments or anything else you might need like additional programs. You can also use the app to adjust the volume and other settings without having to remove your hearing aids or fiddle with switches!
For those who don’t use smartphones, the miniPocket device can handle the controls. The miniPocket is the same size and shape as a key fob for your car, and easily fits on your keyring, so even if you’re not a smartphone user you can still quickly and easily adjust the Signia Silk without having to handle it directly.
