Better Hearing Never Looked So Good
If
you know anyone who wears traditional hearing aids, it’s likely that
you’ve heard a few complaints about the performance of them.
In most cases, traditional hearing aids provide comfortable
relief for those that have hearing problems.
In some cases, however, the solution to the hearing problem
brings other problems with it. Now,
there is an alternative: A
different and improved way to hear without the hassles and limitations
of conventional hearing aids: The
Starkey Aspect On-The-Ear.
Aspect
combines two of amplified hearing’s best ideas into one seamless
integrated system:
- The
soft, flexible Earbud fits inside your ear canal, providing a
secure fit, yet leaving most of the sound passageway unobstructed.
This “open”
fitting lets many sounds pass through naturally, without being
amplified. It also prevents the plugged-up feeling that most
first-time hearing instrument users experience.
- As
sounds reach the ear, Aspect’s sophisticated computer program
recognizes the exact frequencies needed to enhance your
understanding. The
digital processor amplifies these signals, while helping to filter
out any unnecessary or annoying background sounds.
Together,
Aspect’s open fit and digital technology is an ideal blend of
amplified and natural sound, making listening and understanding more
enjoyable and comfortable. Unlike many current hearing instruments, Aspect has no
switches or buttons to worry about.
Simply insert the batteries, put them on, and start hearing
better.
The
tiny size of Aspect and the feather-light design of the Aspect system
enhances comfort. With
less hardware between you and your world of sound, there’s less to
adapt to as you begin experiencing improved hearing.
In fact, our clients who have tried Aspect have the following
to say:
“I
can’t believe how easy these were to get used to.
I thought I would struggle for weeks and weeks, but from the
first day on I had no trouble at all and my hearing really improved.
Thank you!”
“I
went through 4 different trials with 4 different sets of hearing aids
before trying Aspect. As soon as the Audiologist put them on me, I was sold.
They were so small and light, I didn’t feel as though I had
anything on, and they are less visible than the tiniest in-the ear
hearing aid I tried”.
With
its unique Earbud design, Aspect doesn’t need custom, factory-made
molds. Now you can have
your hearing tested and Aspect computer-configured to match your exact
hearing requirements all in one office visit.
Patrick
DeWarle, Director of Audiology for Winnipeg Hearing Centres, has this
to say about Aspect:
“Aspect
represents a completely new approach to amplified hearing.
A large number of clients that we see at our clinics have a
hearing loss that is limited to the higher frequencies.
These clients typically have some difficulty adapting to the
amplified sound of traditional hearing instruments due to the
occlusion of the ear canal by the instrument itself.
The “open” fitting method used with the Aspect completely
solves this problem.”
