Hearing aid technology firm GN Hearing has launched a range of ReSound hearing aid solutions.
The new solutions aim to solve the key listening challenges of people with hearing loss where and when they need it most.
Globally, 466 million people have a disabling hearing loss. GN Hearing wants to help every person with hearing loss improve their hearing and live each day to the full.
Gitte Aabo, CEO and president at GN Hearing, said: “We are now taking the first step to implement the new strategy with new solutions that are a significant leap forward in terms of offering even more people access to the benefits of GN Hearing’s technology. We strive to constantly listen to and learn from our customers, and in doing so, we have developed a full range of solutions that meets the diverse needs of each individual and thereby improves their customer experience.”
For people with severe-to-profound hearing loss, ReSound ENZO Q heralds a solution based on the chip platform of the ReSound LiNX Quattro product family. Available in High Power and Super Power models, this solution offers a 100% speed increase, 30% more computing power, 20% less power consumption and 100% more memory compared to its predecessor ReSound ENZO 3D. Customers can enjoy a 60% average improvement in hearing speech in front of them in noisy environments. The result is the ability to hear high frequency sounds, better speech intelligibility and all-round listening, and just-right volume and noise reduction.
This new hearing solution was trusted by Mo O’Brien, Atlantic rower, when she decided to wear ReSound ENZO Q for the Talisker Whisky Atlantic Challenge. After 49 grueling days at sea, she crossed the finish line to become the first person with profound hearing loss to row across the Atlantic Ocean, doing so with her all-female team, and crediting ReSound ENZO Q for helping her smash ‘the world’s toughest row’. Even when not rowing an ocean, sound clarity and the ability to hear in noisy environments are vitally important for people with severe-to-profound hearing loss.
GN Hearing has also launched new additions to ReSound LiNX Quattro, the hearing solution with an extended bandwidth of up to 9.5 kHz.
This range now offers three new BTE hearing aids and a mini RIE model, which serves people with mild-to-severe hearing loss.
The new ReSound Assist Live, a new feature of the popular ReSound Assist customer care solution, aims to deliver a heightened level of customer experience and business support for hearing care professionals.
This expansion of GN Hearing’s connectivity leadership brings even more benefits to people with hearing loss. People can connect to announcements in public places, such as museums and sports grounds via telecoil. Streaming of phone calls, music or any other audio can be made from smartphones and tablets to ReSound hearing aids using Bluetooth Low Energy. Hearing aid users can utilise GN Hearing’s existing remote fine-tuning solution, and now, with new ReSound Assist Live, they can access real-time and face-to-face online support sessions with their hearing care professional at a convenient time and place.
