Philips HearLink

Utilizing SoundMap technology to identify and amplify the sounds that are wanted, while minimizing interference from feedback and extraneous noise, the range offers industry-leading assistance.

Proving that innovation need not be a stumbling block to style, HearLink hearing aids are offered in a variety of colors and sizes, tailoring more than just the wearer’s listening experience.

The Philips HearLink 9010 is available in four different variations:

• miniRITE – the smallest and most understated design in the range that still offers groundbreaking hearing technology, while being available in a range of colors to blend seamlessly with your hair color
• miniRITE T - adding a telecoil and two operating nodes, this is suitable for most users, bar those that need support for profound hearing loss
• miniRITE T R – designed with the eco-conscious user in mind, with a rechargeable battery and contactless operation
• BTE PP – suitable for those with serious to profound loss of hearing that want to enjoy a better quality of life

Moving away from traditional hearing aid functionality, the HearLink range has been created with coordinating accessories in mind, including:

• Audio Clip: A multifunctional device that is small enough to be kept in your pocket and allows you control volume levels when streaming from various audio sources, including computers, phones and televisions. It can also be used as a direct microphone, with those you are interacting with being able to speak into the device to ensure full clarity when conversing
• TV Adapter: As the name suggest, a device to be used with your television to create a seamless and direct link to sound output when you are watching something on the screen
• Philips Remote: Simple but effective and used for controlling volume levels and power, while being small enough to carry with you at all times

HearLink hearing aids are a premium product, so you should expect to pay a reasonable amount. More information can be found at specific retail outlets including Costco. It is a good idea to book and attend a consultation with your audiology specialist before making a decision and they will be able to advise you about hearing aid costs in general.
