With the introduction of its new Starkey 3 Series hearing aids, Starkey Hearing Technologies has packed more power into its smallest custom wireless hearing aids.
The completely-in-canal (CIC), in-the-canal (ITC) and in-the-ear (ITE) models in the family all feature binaural wireless communication between left and right hearing aids. They also utilize Starkey’s BluWave 3.0 sound processing software and are compatible with Starkey’s SurfLink Mobile device for media streaming and phone conversations.
The 3 Series family also includes four behind-the-ear (BTE) models, with two receiver-in-the-canal (RIC) models, a mini-BTE and a more powerful BTE-13 model.
By integrating its new sound processing technology, binaural wireless features and compatibility with wireless assistive listening peripherals into its smallest-ever custom wireless hearing aids, Starkey has strengthened its competitive position against the handful of other premium-brand hearing aid suppliers integrating leading edge technologies into their new products.
