Signia Silk

Signia has been able to take advantage of advanced technology to develop its range of hearing aids, products, and accessories. The company utilized the Binax hearing aid platform to recreate the effects of binaural hearing, allowing hearing aid users to benefit from enhanced hearing in both ears that can even outclass normal hearing in noisy settings. Binax technology formed the basis of Signia’s debut hearing aid, the primax, which created the platform for its subsequent models, such as the Signia Silk primax.

The Signia Silk is the world’s first custom completely-in-canal (CIC) hearing aid that’s also ready-to-wear. So incredibly small, the Signia Silk becomes almost invisible when it’s in the ear. But despite its small size, it is still packed with features and technology that you would find in other Signia hearing aids. Suitable for mild to moderate hearing loss and designed to fit almost any ear, the Silk is available in three levels of performance: 7px (the highest level of performance), 5px, and 3px. The Silk comes with soft-silicon Click Sleeves that molds itself to the shape of your ear canal, so you can avoid the traditional custom-fitting process and instead wear them straight away.

Signia offers high-end features across its hearing aids, including its Silk range. At the core of the Silk devices is Signia’s Xperience Technology, a platform that Signia has designed to power its range of features, which include:

• Binaural OneMic directionality lets you focus on the sounds you want to hear while canceling out unwanted background noise
• Wireless streaming with Bluetooth compatible devices
• SpeechMaster balances noise reduction, directionality, and steering amplification while also improving speech recognition and minimizing listening effort
• Notch Therapy can reduce the effects of tinnitus (ringing in the ears)
• SoundSmoothing softens loud, sharp sounds
• EchoShield removes reverberations and reduces listening effort
• HD Music offers three settings to enhance your music listening experience

The Signia Silk works with a variety of accessories and apps designed to boost your hearing and enhance your experience of using hearing aids. For example:

• easyTek: A small, lightweight remote control and audio streamer worn around your neck that connects Signia Silk hearing aids to Bluetooth that allows you to wirelessly stream music, phone calls, and other media from your smartphone and other compatible devices directly to your hearing aids
• VoiceLink: VoiceLink uses a microphone to amplify speakers’ voices so you can actively participate in conversations even in the noisiest environments.
• touchControl: This app can be downloaded onto your Android device or iPhone and acts just like a hearing aid remote control to enable you to discreetly control your hearing aids features with just a few taps on your phone
• EasyPocket and miniPocket: The miniPocket is a remote control that can fit on a keyring that allows you to discreetly control your hearing aids. The easyPocket has an easy to read display and large buttons so you can quickly and easily adjust your hearing aids

The Signia Silk price will vary depending on the technology level you choose and where you buy your hearing aids from. Speak to your hearing care professional to find out more about Silk hearing aid prices.
