Law of Motion
Motion is part of your daily life, whilst you indulge in conversations along the way. With either the revolutionary Signia Xperience-powered hearing aids, you can move around to your heart’s content and hear everything and everyone important to you in fantastic HD sound quality. Wherever you go. They understand your personal hearing environment in unfathomable detail to deliver sound precisely tailored to you. This gives the wearer newfound confidence to be an active part of every conversation in every environment.
Speech Tracking
A particularly challenging area that hearing aids wearers can often struggle with is when moving around. For example, when jogging, running, cycling or playing sports, conversation, however brief is easily lost. Even walking along in tricky conditions can prove frustrating when trying to pick out conversation. These fleeting moments are sometimes crucial for following instruction, or simple spacial awareness. Signia appear unmatched in this area, as long as client and audiologist work together effectively. They do this by employing speech-tracking at an incredibly fast rate. The stunningly quick processing chip is the brains behind it and performs impressively well, even when put through rigorous testing. It’s maybe no surprise that this is German technical design at its finest.
Signia have phenomenal wind-noise reduction as well. Clearly, this provides another string to their bow when extracting speech from anything and everything else competing with it. Generally, the closest person to you will be given preference, but this can be overridden if necessary, which brings us on to a feature unique to Signia.
Controlled Focus
This sounds like some kind of a camera feature, doesn’t it? It’s nothing of the sort, thankfully, and however gimmicky it may sound, my goodness, this is something to behold.
You have the ability to point the hearing aids wherever you want to focus on speech. This could be to your left, right, front or back. With one simple touch, you can choose where you want the sound to come from. All other sounds are turned down. You can even “blinker” the sound so that you almost create a narrow beam in front of you, wherever you point your head.
Admittedly, this is only useful on occasion, but typically, our clients have found it invaluable when experiencing this. Think of a busy pub or restaurant when you’d really appreciate hearing the person in front of you. If you could effectively zoom in on them and reduce outside sound, the conversation would suddenly become so much easier. Imagine trying to have a conversation in a vehicle, either as driver or passenger, and finding it frustrating to have to keep turning your head.
Having the option to focus hard left or hard right could really help the conversation, and your neck. On rare occasions, it’s useful to be able to focus on people directly behind you. Just picture trying to hear somebody talking to you from the back seat of a car, or walking single file with them behind you. A quick tap would suddenly open up their speech and have you breathing a sigh of relief. Bear in mind that no other hearing aids offer this functionality.
Signia CROS X Aids
One of the most impactful products on the market has to be the Signia CROS X range. It’s specifically for single-sided hearing loss, or SSHL, and has an almost magical ability to re-engage people who have a non-working ear with hearing on that side.
This sounds too good to be true, but with the wonders of modern science, a pseudo-stereo effect is created. We achieve this by placing a Signia CROS X Aid on the deaf side and activating it. Cleverly, it then detects this previously unattainable sound and transfers it to a corresponding hearing aid on the better side, opening up a sonic landscape that gives back the directionality of hearing to the wearer.
Even though it’s merely a replication of true stereo, clients genuinely feel like they can hear again from the non-hearing side and, trick or not, they feel like they have been handed a lifeline. It comes battery-powered (CROS Silk X; CROS Pure 312 X) or lithium-ion rechargeable (CROS Pure Charge &Go X). The Pure versions also allow for simultaneous Bluetooth streaming from your smartphone and TV.

There’s even a fast-charging option that gives a quick burst of power to keep you going just when you need it most.
Bluetooth connectivity lets you stream your phone calls, music and TV sound straight to your ears.
The Signia app is a stunning companion to this classy technology, as it can stream content directly to your ears and, in addition, act as a remote control for your hearing aids via your smartphone, to adjust them exactly how you like. It also lets you stay in closer contact with your hearing care professional for support on-the-go, if you do desire.
